Unmatched: The Witcher – Realms Fall is a standalone asymmetric skirmish set with three sharply different fighters and two battlefields. Eredin leads Wild Hunt Riders who become more dangerous as their number falls, turning every lost sidekick into rising pressure. Philippa Eilhart manipulates a compact card engine, cycling schemes and magical effects to stay one move ahead. Yennefer and Triss share the spotlight: before battle, the player chooses which sorceress is the hero and which supports as a sidekick, changing the deck’s rhythm and tactical emphasis. On each turn, two actions are spent maneuvering, scheming, or attacking; card values, boosts, zones, and line of sight resolve every clash without dice. Streets of Novigrad and the Naglfar battlefield add fresh spatial problems, while all fighters and maps remain compatible with the wider Unmatched system. It is playable on its own for two or three and opens a much larger roster when mixed with other sets.
