Start of Round
Conspirators module: Roll 1 die. If the result matches any revealed conspirator, that conspirator is active this round.
Sun and Moon module: Rotate the dial so Maia faces the enemy of your choice. Cannot face the same enemy two rounds in a row.
Step 1 - Roll Dice
Reroll sets (not singles) as desired. Must reroll the whole set.
- Dragonling module: May reroll the dragonling die with any set.
- For each reroll, reduce the Rolls tracker.
- Stop when satisfied or out of rerolls.
- Chariots module: Place any required dice on the chariot to satisfy its defeat condition.
Step 2 - Resolve Attacks
Separate dice by number and assign them next to the matching numbered slots on the encounter board.
Chariots module: If the chariot requirement is not met, activate its effect. If met, discard the chariot and put the dice in reserve.
A) Move Battle Markers
- Attacking with a single:
- Shields module: If the enemy is shielded, remove the shield.
- Else: move marker down (enemy hit you).
- Attacking with correct set:
- If enemy is unshielded: move marker up (you hit the enemy).
- If enemy is shielded: move marker down one (enemy reflected damage to you).
- Attacking with incorrect set, enemy unshielded: Give the enemy a shield.
- Otherwise: Marker does not move.
Sun and Moon module:
- If you scored a hit on the enemy in the sun position: borrow one colored die to your dice pool for next round.
- If you did not score a hit on the enemy in the moon position: move its battle marker down.
B) Check for Defeat or Wounds
- Marker in top space: Enemy defeated - discard the enemy card.
- Conspirators module: Draw a new conspirator card if any remain.
- Marker in bottom space: Suffer a wound.
- Add one of your dice to the top space of the exhaustion track.
- Move health marker down one space.
- Reset the enemy's battle marker.
- Health marker enters colored ring: Replace one of your white dice with a colored die of your choice. Move the other colored dice down one space on the health track.
Step 3 - Recover
- Retrieve all dice assigned to enemies.
- Move exhaustion track dice down. Any dice that move off the bottom return to your dice pool.
- Chariots module: Any dice in reserve return to the dice pool.
- Sun and Moon module: Return any colored dice borrowed in the previous round back to the dial.
- Replace defeated enemies with new ones from the deck.
