Read the full game description
Clans and Glory is a compact tactical card game set at a gathering of Scottish clans. Players add cards beside meeting places by matching color or value, then decide whether to stake one of their limited clan shields on the developing group. When the gathering is resolved, shield order determines who claims which followers, so each placement can strengthen a score while improving an opponent’s opportunity. Simple rules, visible information, and a twenty-minute arc turn card timing and calculated commitment into a sharp contest for the most valuable clan.
