Read the full game description
Dice Throne: Vanguard adds four cross-compatible heroes to the competitive Dice Throne system: Druid, Duelist, Forgemaster, and Sun Elf. On a turn, players roll custom dice up to three times to activate attacks and abilities, then spend combat points on upgrades, instant actions, and tactical effects. Every hero has a distinct board, deck, status effects, and resource rhythm, creating sharply different approaches within the same approachable battle framework. Vanguard can stand alone for two- to four-player contests or mix with other Dice Throne sets.
