Read the full game description
Peacemakers: Horrors of War is a cooperative adventure game in which players intervene between two animalfolk armies. Across six independent scenarios, asymmetric adventurers move over a gridded battlefield, manipulate troop positions, shield casualties, complete objectives, and manage horror cards created by escalating conflict. The armies follow scenario systems rather than an opposing player, so the group must read the battlefield and coordinate a humane solution before violence overwhelms everyone.
