Mass Effect: The Board Game – Priority: Hagalaz is a cooperative, story-driven campaign set during the events of Mass Effect 3. One to four players command Shepard, Liara, Tali, Wrex, and Garrus through tactical missions on compact hex maps. Cards drive actions and combat, while experience and optional loyalty missions customize the squad. A story typically spans several linked chapters, and choices made early change objectives and opportunities later. The campaign is designed for repeated play rather than permanent destruction: alternate branches, squad combinations, and evolving abilities reveal different versions of the Hagalaz operation.
