Should be "Print + Play", not "Web". Web is for directly playable browser-games. Despite that, looks quite interesting, especially since I'm a cardgames publisher.

Thanks for having a look Yoda, I switched the link name like you suggested.

Why not making a videocardgame like HearthStone... when the cardgame will be published! ;)

You don't see bord game that many around here. But when you see them the are pritty good after you understand them compleetly.

Hint: try the jam and make a videogame out of it.

Do you place might on a spellcaster and then cast it on another unit later ? Or do you place it on any unit on action phase ?

if might have been placed or cast on a spellsword what happens on a clash ? does the spellsword pass the might to the other unit ?

I'm not sure to understand the uturn description.
if I must attach it face up on the target it means that once casted on a facing opponent unit it can player again and again on each turn since the target will be on my control. Is there something I miss here ?

benjamin-soule 2014-08-28 07:41

If I attach a might on an opponent spellcaster does it prevent him to play further spells ?

All spells are attached to spellcasters first, then cast on other units. If might has been cast on a spellsword then the might transfers on a clash like any other spell attached to a spell sword (even if this would put it on an enemy unit). If the U turn is cast on an opponents spellcaster, and that spellcater enters your control, then you can cast the spell again next turn as if it was readied this turn instead (Spells that are attached on spell casters by being cast on them have to go through a ready step). If you cast a might on a spellcaster, that spellcaster can cast it again next turn but cannot have another spell attached in the meantime. Each card can only have one spell attached to them, if a spell would attach to a unit and that unit already has a spell attached, then you cant cast a spell on that unit. So for example, if a defender had might attached, then a U-turn spell can't be cast on that defender as it already has a spell attached. Hope this answers some of your questions Ben. :D

Neat!

alvivar 2014-08-28 19:39

bonus for a card printable game! :D

some other questions :
If might is attached to a spellcaster and then casted on an other spellcaster, on the next turn it can be casted again, but do the player HAVE TO play the spell ? and it goes the same for others spell, can I wait to play a spell until the best occasion or do i have to cast it when it's ready ?

One last question : Are spell discarded after one use ? I assumed that they were but after reading the rules again I'm not so sure about it.

there are games for people 20 years old, people 30 years old, people 40 years old, people 50 years old... and this game which has the true retro (REETTRRROOOOOOO) experience into the jam!

benjamin-soule 2014-08-29 15:12

Here's some client for realmriders : http://benjaminsoule.fr/games/realmraiders/

I guess my understanding of the rules is not good enough so it maybe not 100% accurate, plz let me now about it

rodroy1 2014-08-31 02:27

WOW, thank you Ben, I cant believe you did this. I'm am amazed at how good it looks and plays. Sorry i didn't get back to you sooner i have been away for a few days. As a response to your questions, yes when a spell is ready you have to cast it. When you cast any spell on a spell caster it cant be cast till next turn. Any spell that doesn't get attached to a unit gets discarded after use.

rodroy1 2014-08-31 03:23

Also I just found out who you are Benjamin and now I feel truly honored. I am already a big fan of your work. It truly is a small world we live in. XD

Amazing card game. The client version is a lot of fun, too.

nicepenguins 2014-09-02 17:05

Nice idea :), thank you for the web version

dokidoki 2014-09-04 03:27

Took me a little getting used to, but it's pretty neat. I was surprised I won against the AI in the web version, but I'm not sure if the AIs were doing the "play a tile in the left or right area" option.

andymar 2014-09-06 10:52

Nice for using a 'platform' that stands out. Well done!

dunin 2014-09-06 10:55

cool for the web version! I don't know why I had seen again this entry, but I'm happy that I can test it! Fun card game.
