About this deal

As players level up, you’ll notice that the leveling will alternate between gaining new skills & cards and gaining command tokens. Each command token indicates how many followers/mercenaries you can have with you. In a case of art imitating life, the more fame you have the more followers you have.

Mage Knight is one of the definitive action/adventure fantasy board games on the market today. The decision to switch gears and convert a collectible miniatures game into a single box board game is a bold move but it’s worked well for Wiz Kids. In a game this heavy there’s always going to be a lot of questions, and just as I’m not going to be able to cover all of the rules in this article (I went over the bare minimum to give you an idea of what you’re getting into) there’s still a lot of questions. WizKids did put out an FAQ, and as I probably mentioned a thousand times now, the Ultimate Edition rulebooks are very well-written. Mage Knight is played in a series of rounds, divided into day and night phases. During each round, players take turns performing actions to explore the board, battle enemies, and achieve objectives. Each player's turn consists of the following steps: That’s not a whole lot of fluff, but you’ll have plenty of time to wander around and get used to the basic mechanics and map tile locations. In Mage Knight, players will assume the role of a hero of the Atlantean Empire called a Mage Knight. During the course of the board game, players will reclaim territory, besiege castles, hunt marauding orcs, delve dungeons, loot wizard towers, and tons more.Disclaimer: The above "How to Play" guide is intended to provide a general overview of the game Mage Knight: Ultimate Edition. While we strive to ensure accuracy, some details may not be entirely accurate or may not cover all aspects of the game. We recommend referring to the official rulebook for complete and accurate information on how to play. Next, in the box are the pre-painted miniatures! I really enjoy painting miniatures, but I’m slower than molasses when it comes to painting them. My 40k army is still only half-finished after years. Not only are they pre-painted, but they’re actually painted very well. There are clearly some that look better, but they look excellent.

Activate special abilities: Utilize your Mage Knight's unique abilities, as described on their Hero card.With my renewed resources I decided it was time to take on a wizard’s tower. “Those pointy hat-wearing pansies can’t stop me!” I shouted to the ether. They proceeded to beat the crap out of me while I used my trusty scouts as meat shields for a tactical retreat. Speaking of the cards you may notice a lot of colors and 2 separate card effects. Each card will have a mana affinity (color) and 2 separate abilities. The ability on top is the generic ability. You will always be able to use this ability. The lower ability can be used only if you spend mana to enhance the card. Throughout the game you’ll have access to mana or magic crystals, and if you spend one that matches the color of the card you can use the enhanced (lower) ability on the card. Everything has been updated in Ultimate Edition. If you like action/adventure in a fantasy setting, you’re going to be hard-pressed to find a game that offers this much content in one box. The only other game off the top of my head that I can think of would be Gloomhaven.
