Solo Scenario Collection

by Kin Hassar/John Hildebrand

This scenario book has three parts. First, there are some general principles that apply to all scenarios, or to a subcategory of scenarios
(like cooperative scenarios). In the second part, there are optional variant rules you can use for your game. The third part contains
descriptions of the scenarios.

1. GENERAL PRINCIPLES
MAP SHAPE
In each scenario description, there is a recommended map shape for the various number of players allowed in that scenario.

Wedge Map Fully Open Map Open Map Limited to 4 or 3 Columns

This shape uses starting tile A. It is like the
one in starting scenario, with one extra
rule:
• Core (brown) tiles cannot be added to
the coastline. (i.e. to the leftmost and
rightmost lane of tiles).
The map starts tight, but then opens
relatively quickly, and soon it can be wide.
The extra rule prevents the Cities being too
far from one another.
This map is most suitable for 2 or 3
players. Because of its narrow start, it is
not recommended if the players are of
different levels of experience: With 3
players, an inexperienced player may get
blocked at the start. With 4 players, this
risk gets even higher and harder to avoid.
A fully open map uses starting tile B, and
you deal three tiles adjacent to it at the
start. The coastline opens out in a much
wider angle here. However, it does not
open forever – the map can have a
maximum of 5 parallel columns of tiles.
Imagine the coastline in each direction
breaks after you add two tiles to the
starting tile. See the picture.
A fully open map is suitable for a
comfortable four player game. For less
players, it is a bit too vast, and there may
not be enough interaction in later phases of
the game.
This is the same shape, except the map is
limited to 4 or 3 columns only. (With 4
columns, it opens more to the right than to
the left). See the pictures.
The 4-column map is suitable either for a 3
player game, if you do not want the start to
be too crowded, or for a 4 player game, if
you want more interaction between the
players.
Similarly, the 3-column map is suitable for
a 2-3 player game, if you want the
interaction to be tight during the entire
game. Note: If you play with 3 or 4 players
here, someone could rush forward and the
ones that stay behind may not have enough
interesting places to explore and conquer.

SOLO SCENARIO
Spells
In a Solo game, remove the four competitive Spells (numbered 17-
20) from the Spell deck you will not use them.
Dummy Player
In the Mage Knight Board Game, when playing solo, the pace of
the game is set by the automated Dummy player.
At the start of the game:
• After the player chooses his Hero, randomly choose one of
the Heroes that is not in the game as a Dummy player Hero.
You only need his Hero card, his Round Order token, and his
starting deck of 16 Basic Action cards.
• Look at his Hero card. At the bottom, there are three colored
dots (for example Goldyx has green, green and blue). Give
three crystals of these colors (one for each dot) to the Dummy
Player’s Inventory. Note: this applies for the Dummy player
only. Other characters start with no crystals.
• Shuffle that Hero’s Deed deck, and the Dummy player is
ready to go.
When picking Tactics:
• See the Scenario description for how the Dummy player
chooses his Tactic card at the start of each Round.
• He does not benefit from the Tactic, it just determines when
he plays in Round Order: Arrange the Round Order tokens by
the Tactic numbers, as usual.
When it is the Dummy player’s turn:
• If his Deed deck is empty, he announces the End of the
Round. Other players have one more turn, and the Round is
over.
• If his Deed deck is not empty, flip over three cards from his
Deed deck and put them in his discard pile. Check the color
of the last flipped card (topmost card of the discard pile):
- If the Dummy player has no crystals of that color in his
Inventory, his turn is over.
- If he has any crystals of that color, flip as many additional
cards as he has crystals of that color. Then, his turn is over
(the color of the additionally flipped card(s) does not matter).
• Note: If there are not enough cards in his Deed deck, flip as
many as you can. On his next turn, the Dummy player
announces End of the Round.
When preparing a new Round:
• When removing the lowest card from the Advanced Action
offer, add this card to the Dummy player’s deck instead. Then
shuffle the Dummy player’s deck.
• When removing the lowest card from the Spell offer, put it to
the bottom of the Spells deck, as usual. In addition, add one
2
crystal of the same color as that Spell card to the Dummy
Player’s Inventory. Contrary to real players, he can have more
than 3 crystals of the same color.
Note 1: The Dummy player does not play too aggressively, so you
have enough time to play efficiently. Sometimes, though, the
random flips may mean that he goes through his deck much faster.
Watch the Dummy player’s deck to adjust your tempo!
Note 2: You have a slight control over the Dummy player’s deck
and crystals. It may be advantageous not to let him get crystals and
cards of the same color.
Skills
In a Solo game, you also use the set of Skills belonging to the
Dummy player’s Hero, except the competitive Skill. Shuffle them
and put them face down next to his Hero card.
Every time your Hero has gained a Skill token, also reveal one
Skill of the Dummy player, and put it into the Common Skill offer
– it is available to you the next time you may gain a Skill token. If
you choose such a Skill from the Common Skill offer, you must
take the lowest Advanced Action card, as with usual Level Up
rules.
Scoring
In a solo game your final score is calculated by taking your Fame
at the end of the game and adding the Achievements as follows:
• Advance Actions: +1 per AA in your deck
• Spells: +2 per Spell in your deck
• Artifacts: +2 per Artifact in your deck
• Crystals: Number of crystals in your inventory divided by 2
(rounded down)
• Unwounded Units: Sum of the Unwounded Units levels
• Wounded Units: Sum of the Wounded Units levels divided by
2 (rounded down)
• Conquered Sites: +2 per Conquered Site (Burned Monastery,
Keep and Mage Tower)
• Adventure Sites: +2 per Adventure Site you defeated
(Monster Den, Dungeon, Ancient Ruins, Spawning Grounds
and Tomb)
• Wounds: -2 per Wound in your deck
Scenarios may also come will additional scoring bonuses. Refer
to each scenario rules.
2. VARIANT RULES
Variants are here to add even more variety to the game, and to adjust it to your tastes. We recommend you follow these rules when
picking variants:
• You should play your first few games with the standard rules only, to better understand the game.
• Do not pick too many variant rules at once, as you might easily forget which rules apply and which do not.

MAP VARIABILITY
Map Shape and Number of Tiles
The map shapes and number of tiles for the scenarios are just
recommended settings. If you discover that you like some map
shapes better, if you want interaction at the start of the game or
during it, or if you want tiles to explore, or even cities to conquer,
feel free to choose different map shapes and number of tiles.
Random Tiles Orientation
The orientation of tiles is normally fixed, the player having no
choice in how to orient them. That’s right, Heroes are just
discovering an unknown kingdom, not, say, building a medieval
city in the south of France.
However, after many games under your belt, you may notice that
limited number of tiles cause some patterns to repeat in the game
from time to time. If you want, you may use this rule:
• When revealing a new tile (at the start of the game, or during
it), it is rotated randomly. Add it to the map face down (so no
one can see how it is oriented), and then flip it by any axis
(choose the axis before seeing the tile content).
Note: The symbols in the corners still must connect, although now,
circles can connect to stars, creating irregular shapes.
Random Cities
The cities have a fixed position. The White city is always by a lake
next to a keep, the Red city is in desert surrounded by dragons,
etc.
That’s the game story, and it makes the cities different not just by
their garrison and bonuses. If you want more variability, though,
you can do it a different way:
• Whenever a city tile is revealed, draw a random City card, and
put the city of that color on the central space of the tile,
regardless of the space color.
Note: You may also use random cities in scenarios where a fixed
city is defined (for example: Green city in the “Druid Nights”
scenario), as it is usually because of the city surroundings, not the
city color itself. In these cases, use the tile the scenario describes,
but when it is revealed, put a random city onto it.

DAYTIME VARIABILITY
Each scenario goes Day, Night, Day, Night... You may change this
if you wish, just for variety.
Night Arrival
You may start with a Night round. Note this is more difficult: not
only it is harder to use mana and travel through forests, but you
also do not see who defends keeps and towers, and what dangers
lurk in the ruins.
If using this, we recommend you roll the mana dice until there is
no gold and no black at the start.
Darkness is Coming
You start with a Day round. At the end of the Round, roll two
mana dice. If any of them is black, night falls and it is Night until
the end of the game. If not, continue with another Day round, and
roll again at its end.

CITY LEVELS
The city levels for a given scenario are shown in the scenario
descriptions. Once you are experienced, you may increase the city
levels, especially when using rules for a cooperative city assault.
Soon, you will see that even a city of level 11 can be conquered
by a single player, if he has strong cards and an army suitable for
a city assault.
Megapolis
If you find out that even the highest level of cities is not enough
of a challenge for you, or if you just want to spice things up, you • Treat this pair of cities as one big city:

the city figure is ignored.
• Set the level of each city as half of the Megapolis level. If the
number is odd, round up for the city on the left, and round
down for the city on the right. (So, the level of the Megapolis
is the sum of the both city levels.) Draw garrison tokens for
both cities, and add them together as the Megapolis garrison
(it does not matter which was drawn for which city).

RAMPAGE!
This is a kind of side quest. You may add it to any scenario to
spice it up.
This kingdom is under heavy raids. Terrorized people are very
suspicious and do not trust anyone.
• Your characters start with -2 Reputation (i.e. they have -1
penalty to interaction).
• At the end of each Day, roll a mana die for each space where
a rampaging enemy was defeated. If a warm, living color was
rolled (red, green or gold), draw a new enemy to that space.
- If it was gold, also add one brown enemy to the usual
green or red token. When fighting this enemy, you must
fight both. The space is considered to contain a
rampaging enemy if there is at least one of these tokens.
You get Reputation +1 for each enemy token defeated.
MORE DECKBUILDING
If you feel you would like to have more chance to tune your deck
during the game, you may use one of the following variants. We
do not recommend them for your first few games. Also, when
using these rules, your Hero’s strength rises faster, so you might
want to adjust the game difficulty by increasing the city levels.
Note: If using one of these variants or when cards that allow you
to gain more Advanced Action cards enter the game early, there is
a chance you might run out of Advanced Action cards. In that case,
the monastery offer is affected first (do not deal cards there if there
are none left). If there are not enough cards to replenish the
Advanced Action offer, just use as many as you can. If there are
none, the player gets nothing.
Action Upgrades
• At the end of each Night except the final one (i.e. twice during
the standard 6-Round scenarios), reveal 2 Advanced Action
cards.
• Then, you may (but do not have to) take one of the displayed
Advanced Action cards and add it to your deck. At the same
time, you also must throw away one of your Action cards. The
new card must either be of the same color or share at least one
type (icon in the upper left corner) as the card thrown away.
• Then, the card or cards no one picked are put to the bottom of
the Advanced Action deck.
4
- If conquered, treat the Megapolis as one big city that has two
spaces. A player puts his figure onto the corresponding card
to mark which part he is in. He may move from one part to
another during movement (for the standard city Move cost of
2), or leave it by entering a space adjacent to the part he is
currently in. Also, to challenge a rampaging enemy when in
a city, the player must be on the space adjacent to that enemy.
- No matter in which part of the city his Hero is, the player
may use purchase options of both cities during interaction.
- During scoring, a Megapolis counts as only one city. Note:
Scoring does not take city level into account.
• If you decide to play a scenario with two Megapolis, add a
random city to the first revealed city tile. The other two cities
will go to the second city tile, even if it happens to be the color
you added to the first Megapolis.
• At the end of each Night, do the same, except this time cold
colors (white, blue or black) count, and you add one extra
brown enemy when black is rolled.
More Rampage!
For an even more extreme version of this variant:
• Your characters start with -4 Reputation (i.e. they have -2
penalty to interaction).
• At the end of each Day or Night, you roll a die for each
defeated rampaging enemy as above. However, the
rampaging enemy token is added always, and if a warm
(during Day) or cold (during Night) color is rolled, you also
add the brown one.
• You should shuffle your deck well before the next Round.
Note: You might like this variant if you prefer a slower pace of
game. It allows you to take a break once or twice during the game
(depending on the number of rounds), to examine and review your
deck, and to think what it needs to work better.
Drafting at the Start
This variant encourages long term planning. You plan some
upgrades for your Hero ahead of time, and can adjust your
decisions during the game to suit your plan.
• After choosing your character (but before the map is set, the
dice rolled and the offers revealed), take two cards from the
Advanced Action deck randomly.
• Choose one of these cards and sets it aside, discarding the
other one.
• Continue until you have three cards set aside. Shuffle the ones
no one picked back into the Advanced Action deck.
• Keep the cards in a safe place (ideally away from the playing
table, so they do not get shuffled into your deck accidentally).
• At the end of each Day round, when you are shuffling your
deck, choose one of these cards and shuffle it into your deck.
• Note: You may use these rules even when the scenario has
fewer than six rounds. You just do not use all the cards you
picked.

Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (2 days and 2 nights)
Again, your task is to conquer all cities. You have only two days
and two nights this time, so you were imbued with extra power.
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge, Wedge, or Open limited to 4 columns
• Countryside tiles: 6
• Core city tiles: 2
• Core non-city tiles: 2
• Cities: Each revealed city is level 3.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• You start with 1 Fame. Whenever you cross a line on the
Fame track, you get 1 extra Fame.
• You start with +2 Reputation (i.e. you have a bonus of +1 for
interaction right from the start).
• There are 4 dice in the Source and 4 Units in the offer.
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
Scenario End
When all cities are conquered, you have one last turn (the Dummy
player does not).

scoring.
Then score for your goal and for the time to reach it. See the other
side of the Scoring card:
• Score 10 points for each city you conquered.
• Score an additional 15 points, if you conquered all cities.
SOLO MINES LIBERATION
Credit: Base Game Rulebook, BGG user Dr. snowMan
Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (2 days and 2 nights)
Mines in this friendly kingdom are occupied by enemies! Without
a supply of crystals, Mages cannot serve the land. Go there and
regain them.
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge, Wedge, or Open limited to 4 columns
• Countryside tiles: 7 (4 with mines, 3 without mines).
• Core city tiles: 1 (always the red city)
• Core non-city tiles: 1 (with a mine).
• Cities: The city is friendly. You start with one shield token on
it.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• When a mine is revealed, put one green (if on a Countryside
tile) or red (if on a Core tile) enemy token on it, face up. Also,
add one brown enemy token, face down. These are enemies
controlling the mine (one is hidden in the deeps). Arrange
them in a way that the reverse of the brown one is visible, too,
to distinguish them from rampaging enemies.
• To liberate a mine, you may enter it from its space (as an
Action). Fight both enemies. Night rules apply as in a
Dungeon (but you can use your Units). If you do not defeat
both, the remaining token(s) stay on the space. They can be
attacked again later.
• When you defeat the last enemy, you liberate the mine. Mark
it and gain +1 Reputation (+2, if on a Core tile).
SOLO DRUID NIGHTS
Credit: Base Game Rulebook, BGG user Kin Hassar
Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (2 days and 2 nights)
Have you noticed the mysterious obelisks with engraved symbols
on the magical glades around this kingdom? Go and investigate!
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge, Wedge, or Open limited to 4 columns
• Countryside tiles: 7 (remove only tiles with no magical glades
on them).
• Core city tiles: 1 (always the green city)
• Core non-city tiles: 1.
• Cities: The city is friendly. Put one Shield token on it.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• When ending your movement on a magical glade, you may
activate it – mark the glade with your Shield token.
• Once during the first Night, in any of your turns, you may
perform an incantation. You may not be at an inhabited space
and it counts as your Action for that turn. It summons one
monster for each glade you have your Shield token on – draw
that many brown enemies and fight them.
- The ones you defeat bring you twice as many Fame.
- The ones you do not defeat disappear after the combat
(but the Wounds they did do not).
- Regardless how many of them you defeated, at the end
of your turn you get one random crystal for each monster
you summoned (roll a die for each, like in a monster den).
6
• If you finished the game one or more Rounds before the limit,
score 30 points for each such Round.
• Score 1 point for each card in the Dummy Player’s Deed deck
(that was not yet flipped this Round).
• If the End of the Round was not announced yet in your last
Round, score an additional 5 points.
Variants
You may adjust the city levels to set up the right challenge for you.
You may also use a Megapolis.
• Until liberated, mines produce no crystals. Once liberated,
they produce as usual (the production starts immediately, so
you get one crystal on the turn you liberated the mine).
• At the start of Day or Night, you gain one crystal from every
mine you already conquered, no matter how far away it is on
the map. Just a gift from the grateful miners.
• Note: If there are not enough brown tokens, use some
substitute for the brown monsters that are on the map but not
revealed yet. Draw a new brown monster when it is about to
be revealed.
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
Scenario End
When all map tiles are revealed and all mines are liberated, you
have one last turn (the Dummy player does not).
Scoring
If you liberated all mines, the mission was successful.
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring.
In addition you score 4 Fame for each of your mines in
Countryside and 7 Fame for each mine on Core tiles.
Variants
4 Rounds is a tough challenge. You may adjust the length to 5
rounds (3 days and 2 nights) or 6 rounds (3 days and 3 nights) to
lower the difficulty.
• At the end of the first Night, remove all Shield tokens from
the glades. You must mark them again, if you want to use
them for an incantation the second night.
• During the second Night, you may do the same, except this
time you summon red enemies. The Fame for defeated ones
is doubled again, and this time you get two random crystals
for each enemy.
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
Scenario End
When you have performed the incantation during the second Night
(in that case, you have more turn, but the Dummy player does not),
or at the end of the second Night.
Scoring
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring. In addition, you score 15 Fame for each of incantation
you made (even if you defeated no monster).
Variants
You may play an Epic version that lasts 3 Days and 3 Nights. Add
one countryside tile and one non-city core tile to the game.
Remove the Shields after the second Night, too. During the third
Night, you summon one brown and one red enemy for each
magical glade you have marked, and get three crystals for each
pair summoned.
DUNGEON LORDS
Credit: Base Game Rulebook, BGG user Dsnowman
Expansion required: None
Length: Five rounds (3 days and 2 nights)
We thought we already controlled this land. We were wrong!
There is a vast system of underground tunnels under the kingdom.
We do not know who dug these tunnels and why, but we do not
care. Go, and seize control of them!
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge, Wedge, or Open limited to 4 columns
• Countryside tiles: 7 (remove only tiles with no dungeons on
them).
• Core city tiles: 1 (always the Blue city)
• Core non-city tiles: 1 (always the desert tile with monastery
and tomb).
• Cities: The city is friendly. Put one Shield token on it.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• Whenever a tile with a village is revealed, choose any
accessible non-swamp space adjacent to that village (it can
even be on a neighboring tile) that has no site on it. From now
on, there is a secret dungeon entrance on this space. Put a face
down brown enemy token on the space to mark it.
• A secret dungeon entrance works like any other dungeon (see
its description card). If you conquer it, mark the space and
claim your reward. If you fail, discard the monster token and
put another random brown enemy on that tile.
• The same applies for monasteries except you put a red enemy
token to an adjacent empty space to mark there is a secret
tomb.
SOLO TO RETURN
Credit: Base Game Rulebook, BGG user Kin Hassar
Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (2 days and 2 nights)
This is an ultimate test of your power. You are sent to an unknown
part of the kingdom and the portal closes after you go through it.
After two days and two nights, the portal opens again for a short
while. Only by being at the portal at that moment you can return
home.
Setup
• Starting Tile: Wedge
• Countryside tiles: 6
• Core city tiles: 1
• Core non-city tiles: 1
• Cities: Each revealed city is of level 3.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• The portal closes at the end of the Day 1 (if you are on the
portal at that time you would be eliminated from the game).
From now on, the portal works as an empty plain space.
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
GRAND CONQUEROR
Credit: BGG user Maciej Krok
Expansion required: None
Length: Six rounds (3 days and 3 nights)
Setup
• Starting Tile: Wedge
• Countryside tiles: 5 (numbers: 1, 5, 7, 9, 11)
• Core city tiles: 4 (Blue, Green, Red, White)
• Core non-city tiles: 0
• Cities: Green lvl 2, White lvl 4, Blue lvl 6, Red lvl 8
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
• You should put tiles A, 1 and 5 face up as usual, and place the
rest in their places as stated above face down (they still need
to be explored to gain access to them). In this scenario rushing
to explore core tiles is perfectly legal, so you're not forced to

• The secret tomb works the same way as regular tombs.
• Conquered dungeons and tombs (both regular and secret
ones) cannot be entered again to fight for more Fame in this
scenario.
• All conquered tombs and dungeons (including the secret
ones) are connected.
- When on a conquered dungeon or tomb space during
movement, you may move to any other conquered dungeon
or tomb space.
- These two spaces do not have to be of the same type (you
may travel from a regular dungeon to a hidden tomb etc.)
- To do so, you must pay 2 Move points plus 1 Move point
for each space you traveled.
- When measuring the distance, you must go through revealed
spaces, and you must avoid lakes and swamps. If it is not
possible, you cannot travel there.
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
Scenario End
When all map tiles are revealed and all dungeons and tombs are
conquered, you have one last turn (the Dummy player does not).
Scoring
If you conquered all the dungeon and tombs, the mission was
successful.
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements

When scoring Adventures, also count the secret dungeons and
tombs. All dungeons and tombs give 4 points instead of 2.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
Scenario End
The scenario ends as soon as the second Night is over.

SOLO BLITZ CONQUEST: SPELLBOUND
Credit: BGG user Tokhuah
Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (1 day and 3 nights)
There is an unnatural darkness looming in the East. Two depleted
and pitiful cities that have been at war for centuries decided to
break their ageless stalemate by invoking things better left hidden.
This has been done through a dangerous use of arcane mage
powers. They have gone too far and upset the balance of the mystic
energies. A darkness is falling, a darkness of endless night
enveloping a spellbound world heading into the abyss. The
Council of the Void has charged you with the task of breaking the
spell by taking control of both Cities and as many Mage Towers
as possible.
Setup
• Starting Tile: Wedge
• Countryside tiles: 5 (three with mage tower [4, 9, 11, 13] &
two without mage tower)
• Core city tiles: 2 (Blue City & one random)
• Core non-city tiles: 1 (2, 3 or 9 chosen randomly)
• Cities: Each revealed city is of level 1.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).

If you succeed in defeating all cities, you are victorious. If not,
you have failed. In both cases, you may count your score, to see
how good you were.

HUNTING FOR THE ROGUE KNIGHT
Credit: BGG user Javasrybe
Expansion required: None
Length: Four rounds (2 day and 3 nights starting at night)
A Rogue Knight has become sympathetic to the cause of the
inhabitants of an Atlantean City, and has become their protector.

him, and Kill him.
Setup
• Starting Tile: Wedge
• Countryside tiles: 6
• Core city tiles: 4
• Core non-city tiles: 0
• Cities: Cities are level 4. The Rogue Knight's City level is

you were sent to assassinate. Goldyx is hiding in the Green
City, Norowas in the White City, Tovak in the Blue city and
Arythea in the Red City.
Special Rules
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
• When you find the Rogue Knight's City, put his figurine and
the normal Units on the card.
• When you conquer the Rogue Knight's City, end the round
and calculate remaining cards for the Scoring. A special
"Duel to the Death" Round then begins.

REVENGE OF THE DRAGON LORDS
Credit: BGG user Andrew_zz
Expansion required: None
Length: Nine rounds (2 day and 1 night repeated 3 times)
The dragon lords have taken control of the four capital cities and
you need to recapture them saving the kingdom.
Setup
• Starting Tile: Open Map, 3 Columns
• Countryside tiles: 10
• Core city tiles: 4
• Core non-city tiles: 1
• Tiles are stacked as two countryside tiles followed by a core
tile, repeated 5 times. First Core tile is the non-city tile. This
means the core tile will be in play from the start of the game,
make sure this is the central tile (after this they can be placed
anywhere).
• Cities: First City is level 7, Second City is level 11, Third City
is level 7 with an extra Draconum and Fourth City is level 11
with an extra Draconum. If a Draconum is defeated but the
city is not then the Draconum is replaced.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• When taking Tactics, randomly deal 3 cards to the Dummy
player who takes the middle value one. You then choose your
Tactic card between the 3 remaining.
• Before starting the game draw three advanced actions, pick
one to add to your deck and place the other two into the
dummy player’s deck. Add to the Dummy player card three
crystals per card added of the same color as the card (in
addition to the 3 regular crystals).
9
o One on One: You cannot use your Units for the Duel
with the Rogue Knight.
o Up close and personal: There is no Ranged/Siege
phase for the Duel, although you can use them
normally as Attacks.
o Play attacks alternatively, starting with your
opponent, and Assign Damage as you would for
Single Player (i.e. Wounds only occur when there is
damage greater or equal to Armor)
o End the "turn" after each of your attack. (Discard,
Reset Source and Skills, Draw, etc.)
o If you ever accumulate several Wounds in hand
equal to your Hand Size, you lose the duel and your
opponent will finish you off mercilessly.
o You also lose if you run out of cards.
o Should you inflict the Rogue Knight several Wounds
equal to his City's level, he is defeated and you
execute him for his betrayal.
Scenario End
This scenario ends in blood, with Rogue Knight's death (or yours).
Scoring
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements

Then score for your goal and for the time to reach it. See the other
side of the Scoring card:
• Score 10 points for each city you conquered.
• Score an additional 15 points, if you conquered all cities.
• If you finished the game one or more Rounds before the limit,
score 30 points for each such Round.
• Score 1 point for each card in the Dummy Player’s Deed deck
(that was not yet flipped before the Duel).
• If the End of the Round was not announced yet in your last
Round before the Duel, score an additional 5 points.
If you defeat the Rogue Knight, double your score.
If you did not find the Rogue Knight, halve your score.
Variants
If you want an easier/tougher fight, vary the level of the Rogue's
city (affecting his Attack/Armor and Wounds)
Tip
Since you will know from the start which Mage Knight you're
facing, shape up your Actions and Spells accordingly! (For
instance, packing up on Cold Blocks before facing Arythea sounds
like a good idea...)
• An assault against a city does not decrease reputation.
• No elite units will be in the offering until at least one city is
defeated.
• You may not interact with a monastery until you have
defeated at least one dragon. The first time you visit any
monastery after defeating a dragon you gain a free artifact.
• You start each turn with two movements even if you have no
cards in hand.
Scenario End
When all cities are conquered, you have one last turn (the Dummy
player does not).
Scoring
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements

RETURN TO THE VOID
Credit: BGG user Javasrybe
Expansion required: None
Length: Variable (about 4 Rounds)
You feel it’s presence as soon as you pass through the portal on
your dark mission, though you know not what it means. Dozens of
cities have fallen to your might and magic, but this time feels
different.
In less than a day, garrisons have fallen, mages cowed, and Orc
Khan obliterated. Your speed and might are unparalleled. Across
the days, your powers grow and your ranks swell with the
disillusioned masses of the Atlantean Empire. By all appearances,
everything is as it should be as you approach your waiting target
- that towering monolith of a city that your enemies hide within.
Even so, an unshakable sense of coming doom stirs in your heart.
You become weaker as something within the city saps your
strength and renders your powers impotent. All too soon, you
discover why. The Atlanteans have discovered a secret weapon
that brings you to your knees.
They call it the Mage Stone, a shimmering rune of unimaginable
power, crafted to devour the very essence of the Void. That which
made you special, that which made you powerful, is gone. With
your Mage Knight powers drained, you fall to the combined forces
of Atlantean forces within the city.
The Mage Stone can sap the powers of the mightiest Mage Knight,
but it cannot destroy the resolve of those that rally to his cause.
Nary a week after your capture, your prison is liberated by the
peasants and town-folk who call you leader. Your only hope now
is to escape back to the Void and warn the Council of the coming
danger. Time is of the essence however. Your former captors will
stop at nothing to hunt you down.
Setup
• Starting Tile: 1 Random City, See below
• Countryside tiles: 8
• Core city tiles: 1-4 (Variable – see below)
• Core non-city tiles: 2-5 (Variable – see below)
• Randomly pick one City Tile as your starting tile. Then mix
all remaining Core Tiles and draw 5.
• Cities: Cities are level 1 except starting city which has no
enemy at the beginning.
• Set the map as follows:
• Tiles are flipped face up when they are explored (by spending
2 movement points)
• Dummy Player: There is no Dummy player.
10
Round Order
With your Mage Knight abilities drained, your speed and powers
are reduced. While it took you mere days to reach the city, it will
take you weeks to return to the portal. Each Round is three days
long, and is represented by 6 tactic cards (the first 3 daytime and
first 3 nighttime tactics). Form a deck of these tactic cards by
arranging them in day/night order from 1 to 3 (Day 1, Night1, Day
2, Night 2, etc.). This is the Round Deck.
To begin the game, reveal the top card from the Round Deck (Day
Tactic 1). Play a Turn while this tactic card is revealed. Daytime
rules apply when a daytime tactic is showing.
On your next turn, reveal the next card from the Round Deck
(Night Tactic 1). Play a Turn while this tactic is revealed.
Nighttime rules apply. In this way, you will work your way
through the Round Deck until it is depleted. Ignore any text on
Tactic cards.
After the third night, when your Round Deck is depleted, the
Round is over. If your draw deck is depleted in the middle of the
round, you may not act for the remaining "days" of the week. You
are exhausted and will need to rest before continuing. The enemy
unit, however, will continue to advance on days that you rest (see
Hunted section below).
Special Rules
• You start on the revealed city space (random color).
• Use 4 mana dice in the source. They are rerolled each Round
(see above).
• Start the game with a Peasants unit. These are the people who
liberated you.
• Followers are reactivated each day (before your daytime
turn).
• You start the game with 0 fame and 0 reputation.
• All cities revealed are at level 1 and react like roaming
monsters to your movements. (They will attack if you move
from one adjacent spot to a different adjacent spot.) You lose
no reputation if they attack you, but you will lose reputation
if you assault the city. If you move into an undefended city
(because you already defeated them) you do not lose
reputation.
• Advanced Units are added to the offering once a second city
tile is revealed.
Hunted
The city forces have been alerted to your escape. On the start of
the second day of the first Round, place a white city forces token
face down on the city spot. This represents the forces organizing
the hunt. On the start of the third day of the first Round (before
you move), move the city forces token one space toward your
character. On each subsequent "day" turn before you have acted,
move them another one space toward your character.
Hunters cannot move on lakes, mountains or spaces occupied by
rampaging enemies. However they can go through keeps, cities
and mage towers.
When two paths are equivalent, Hunter should always take the
northernmost path to force you toward the portal.
This force possesses the Mage Stone and cannot be defeated. If
they ever enter the space you are on, you are defeated. You are
also weakened by the Mage Stone. If you are Knocked Out at any
time during the game, you are defeated.
Scenario End
• If the approaching city forces enter your space, then you lose
the scenario.
• If you are knocked out at any time, then you lose the scenario.
• You win by reaching the portal
Scoring
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring.
Variants
You may increase the city levels to get tougher challenge.
THE APPRENTICE
Credit: Bruce Clark
Expansion required: None
Length: 6 (or 4) rounds
Growing up in your countryside village, you have lived a happy,
safe life. Ever vigilant, the Mage Knights would always protect
your town from vile Orcs, rampaging Draconum, and wandering
warlocks. You had looked up to them, wanted to be one someday.
You would always practice sparring with your friends, but you
eventually grew tired of all the easy combat.
Upon entering adulthood, one of the Mage Knights visiting your
village noticed your skill with a weapon, and quickly brought you
under his tutelage. He was a firm Master, but fair. He would teach
you everything he knew about Mage Knighthood, and you were
hungry for more. One day soon you would plan to overtake your
Master, and seek out your own conquests.
Setup
• Starting Tile: Special (1, 2 and 3), No limitation
• Countryside tiles: 5 (or 3)
• Core city tiles: 1
• Core non-city tiles: 2
• Tiles are stacked with Countryside tiles on top and the City
Tile at the bottom.
• Cities: City is level 4.
• Roll 6 mana dice to fill the source (day side). Re-roll any
black mana.
• Your starting hand consists of 2 Wounds and 3 cards from
your starting deck
• Start with your character on the village on tile 2.
• Populate Rampaging Orcs and Keep per standard rules (as
shown above)
• Choose another Mage Knight to represent your Master.
Shuffle the Master’s deck and set to the side face down
Special Rules
• There are no tactics in this game.
• You may use only 1 mana from the source per turn (unless a
card says otherwise). Do not return this die at the end of your
turn. If all mana from the source is expelled, end the Round
after your current turn. The Round may also end if you
depleted your deck as per normal rules.
• Each Round has 6 mana. Days always start without black
mana. Nights can start with up to 2 mana (re-roll any gold
mana).
THE GAUNTLET

Expansion required: None
Length: Six rounds (3 days and 3 nights)
The Council of the Void has taken note of your deeds and selected
you to go on a mission to retrieve a rare artifact from the city of
the desert. This city can only be reached through a long and
treacherous canyon. Hurry, your time is limited!
Setup
• Map Shape: Linear. Use side B of the starting tile. Each new
tile extends in the opposite direction from the point of the
coast. (The “Random Tiles Orientation” variant is not
11
Play
• You are an Apprentice Mage Knight, under the tutelage of a
Master. You start out weaker than normal, represented by the
2 Wounds in your hand. These 2 Wounds cannot be healed.
- When you achieve Level 2, you simply remove 1 Wound
from play (you will still have 1 un-removable Wound in
your hand).
- At level 3, you will be at full strength, removing the 2nd
Wound.
• Your Master will help you on your journey. Move, Attack,
Block, and Influence are as normal, but if you need help in
battle, reveal the top card from your Master’s Deck.
- The stronger effect will be free (no mana required), or it
can always be played sideways for 1x (as usual). He can
only assist in Battle (Block or any kind of attack).
- If you use his help, reduce fame gained by 2 per card
played (to a minimum of 1).
• While you are training, Rampaging Orcs will re-spawn at the
start of each new Round (after you successfully overtake your
Master, the Rampaging Orcs no longer re-spawn).
• At any time, you may return to your starting Village to
challenge your Master (in fact, if you can’t challenge him and
win by the end of the 2nd Round, you lose).
- To challenge him, draw a Purple Enemy Token while at
the starting Village and play normally. Your Master
won’t help you, of course.
- Take a -2 penalty to Reputation each time you challenge
your Master
After over taking your Master:
Undeterred by his recent loss to his Apprentice, the Master flees
to a nearby City. Menacingly, he sends dragons and other units
out to hunt down his former pupil, to try to teach him a permanent
lesson. The former Apprentice's resolve is hardened and will not
rest till he defeats his former mentor one last time. This country is
not big enough for 2 Mage Knights.
• At start of a new Round, draw 3 cards from your Master’s
deck. Remove 1 of each colored mana from the source, if
possible.
• At the start of Rounds 3 and 4, the Master immediately
dispatches a Draconum to fight you at the start of each Round
(after the Source has been populated). Fight as normal (full
starting hand and readied units). If you do not defeat the
Draconum, it takes your place and pushes you back 1 space.
For now, on it is a rampaging enemy. Also add a grey token
to the City defenses.
• At the start of Rounds 5 and 6, the Master sends a White
enemy (while still adding a grey token to the City defenses).
If you do not defeat the White enemy, it takes your place and
pushes you back 1 space. For now, on it is a rampaging enemy
• When ready, attack the City to win the game, adding any
additional grey tokens to the city’s defenses.
Scenario End
If you do not defeat your Master by the end of Round 2, you lose.
If you do not conquer the City by the end of Round 6, you lose.
If you manage to conquer the City you are victorious.

and drawing the country tiles.
• Core city tiles: 1, always the red city, at the bottom of the tile
stack.
• Core non-city tiles: 3. If playing with the Lost Legion
expansion, choose three of the core tile 2, 4, 9, & 10. With
just the base game, use tile 2, 4, and one other random tile
(remove one with no rampaging site).
• Cities: The city is friendly. Place its city card in play but do
not put any shield token on it.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).

you used from the game. Return the Dummy Player’s Tactic
card to the deck.
• For every second rampaging orc you defeat, in addition to
increasing your reputation, add one of your shield tokens to
the city.
• When you defeat a rampaging Draconum, in addition to
increasing your reputation by 2, add one shield token to the
city.
You can double-check the number of shield tokens which should
be on the city by adding half of the defeated rampaging orc spaces
plus all the defeated rampaging Draconum spaces.
STROLLING IN THE DEEP
Credit: Artemus Maximus
Expansion required: None
Length: Six rounds (3 days and 3 nights)
The Council of the Void has sent you back to a kingdom that has
already been conquered by a fellow Mage Knight recently.
Unfortunately, this Mage Knight, who remains nameless, did not
thoroughly cleanse the land of evil. While the White City remains
loyal, the rest of the land has fallen under the threat of a dark
sorcerer that has usurped rule of the neighboring Red City. He
has sent his minions forth to regain control of the land – Orcs once
again roam the countryside, marauding the Villages and
Monasteries. Terrible monsters from the depths of the
underground are emerging in great numbers as well. And what’s
worse, the Draconum have returned with a vengeance, scouring
the land and destroying anything in their paths. The fortified
Keeps and Mage Towers have shut their gates, fearful to let
anyone or anything in. You must cleanse this land once again, and
retake the Red City.
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge
• Countryside Tiles: 6 (include tiles 6, 7, 9, & 10)
• Core City Tiles: 2 (the Red and White Cities)
• Core non-City Tiles: 3 (include tiles 1 & 3)
• Cities:
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
• You will also need the Dummy Player’s Shield Tokens.
• Ancient Ruins Tokens: Remove all tokens depicting Green,
Tan, and/or Red enemy tokens to fight for reward. They will
not be used.
• Lost Legion Expansion: All components may be included,
except:
- Volkare’s Camp tile
- Volkare
- the Ancient Ruins token with 3 green enemies
Special Rules
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove the Tactic card that
you used from the game. Return the Dummy Player’s Tactic
card to the deck.
Rampaging Enemies
In this scenario, Monsters can emerge out of the dark places –
they will not wait for you to come to them!
• When Preparing for a new Round, first check each Monster
Den, Dungeon, Spawning Grounds, and Tomb on the map.
(except on the first Day)
• If the Adventure Site does not contain a shield token, an
enemy token, or your hero, an enemy emerges from the
depths: place a corresponding enemy token on the space,
face-down:
- Monster Den – 1 Monster (tan) enemy token
- Dungeon – 1 Monster (tan) enemy token
- Spawning Grounds - 2 Monster (tan) enemy tokens

Scenario End
The game ends at the end of the turn in which you buy an artifact
from the red city, or at the end of the sixth round, whichever comes
first.
Scoring
If you succeed in entering the red city and buy an artifact, your
mission was successful. If not, you have failed. In both cases you
may count your score to see how good you were.
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring.
Then score for your goal and for the time to reach it:
• Score 10 points for entering the red city.
• Score an additional 10 points for buying an artifact from the
red city.
• If you finished the game one or more Rounds before the limit,
score 40 points for each such Round.
• Score 2 points for each card in the Dummy Player’s Deed
deck (that was not yet flipped this Round).
• If the End of the Round was not announced yet in your last
Round, score an additional 5 points.
- Tomb – 1 Draconum (red) enemy token
From this point on, these enemy tokens (and any other green, tan,
or red enemies already on the map) are Rampaging Enemies – they
can be provoked or assaulted from adjacent spaces like normal
rampaging enemies.
• This means that you may not explore an Adventure Site on
your turn if there is an enemy token on the site already – the
rampaging enemy must first be dealt with. After a Rampaging
Enemy is destroyed on such a site, then it may be explored as
normal.
• When you kill a Rampaging Monster enemy, you gain
Reputation +1 at the end of your turn.
• All Rampaging Enemies are always placed face-down when
placed on the map. They are revealed at Day when adjacent
(whether you move adjacent to the enemy or the enemy
moves adjacent to you), or at night when you assault (blind).
This includes Orcs and Draconum.
Enemy Movement
Not only are there more Rampaging Enemies in this land and the
nature of them hidden, but they also roam freely in the
countryside, wreaking havoc, striking fear into the locals!
• After generating Rampaging Monsters at the start of a Round,
reroll the source dice, 1 at a time. DO NOT reroll black/gold
dice if >1, until all Rampaging Monsters have moved. Keep
the 3 dice in the order rolled. Then, one by one, move each
Rampaging Enemy (Orcs, Monsters, and Draconum) on the
map in the direction below relative to its current location,
according to the color rolled on the dice, for each of the 3
dice, in the order rolled (per following diagram)
• Draconum move 2 spaces per die. All Draconum on the map
should be moved before Orcs and Monsters move. Draconum
may not enter the following spaces:
o Unexplored spaces
• Orcs and Monsters move 1 space per die. They may not enter
the following spaces:
- Unexplored spaces
- Lakes
- Mountains
- Fortified Sites (Keeps, Mage Towers, White City)
- Through Walls
• If an enemy cannot move in the direction indicated by a die,
the enemy remains in its place. Continue to the next die
movement or enemy.
• If an enemy enters an inhabited space, it is immediately
destroyed! (Village, Monastery, Refugee Camp, Mage
Tower, or Keep. Draconum only for the last 2. See below for
Cities). Place a Shield Token belonging to the Dummy player
on the space. This site is non-existent for the remainder of the
game.
- The Dummy Player’s shield token replaces yours if a
Draconum enters a Keep or Mage Tower you control (it
is now destroyed), but not if any enemy enters a
Monastery site with your shield token on it (it was
already burned to the ground by you!)
• If an enemy enters your hero's space, it remains there and
attacks you! You must fight the enemy(ies) on your first turn.
Level I units may not participate (they are frightened!). If you
lose the combat, you may retreat to a safe space, if able. If
unable to retreat, you must continue to fight on subsequent
turns until the enemies are defeated.
- If a Draconum enters a fortified site where your hero
currently is, the Draconum fights you – the site is not
destroyed.
Cities
The White City is loyal to you – the Red City however…
• The White City:
- Is set to Level 3 when revealed.
- You may enter this city freely and interact as if you
controlled it (you may not attempt to conquer it and you
do not control it)
- If a Draconum enters the White City space while you are
not present, reduce its level by 1 (if your hero is present,
the Draconum will fight you on your first turn instead).
Place a Shield Token belonging to the Dummy player on
the White City Reference card.
- If the White City’s level is reduced to below 1, it is
destroyed! It is considered non-existent for the remainder
of the game.
• The Red City:
- Is set to Level 8 when revealed.
- If any rampaging enemy (Orcs, Monsters, Draconum)
enter this city space, they remain in its garrison – place
the enemy token on the Red City Reference card. You
must defeat this enemy as well when you assault the city.

Expansion required: Lost Legion
Length: Five rounds (3 days and 2 nights)
Those Draconum are getting out of control. The Council needs
you to curb their numbers before we move on to the human
population. Be careful--the locals have locked themselves away in
fear, and interaction will be difficult until you earn their trust.
Setup
• Map Shape: Wedge, Wedge, or Open limited to 4 columns
• Countryside tiles: 4
• Core city tiles: 1 (Blue City)
• Core non-city tiles: 3 (2, 4 and 9)
• Cities: The city is friendly. You can enter and interact with it
freely, but do not receive any leader bonuses.
• Dummy Player: There is one standard Dummy player (see the
General Principles section).
Special Rules
• When taking Tactics, you always choose first. The Dummy
player then takes one random card from those remaining.
• At the end of each Day or Night, remove both used Tactic
cards from the game. That means, each Tactic card cannot be
picked more than once during the game.
• The Rampage! variant (see the Variant Rules section) must
be used with this scenario. However, you start with -5
reputation (the first -5 space) instead of -2. In addition, if a
roll to replace a Rampaging Draconum fails, you may always
choose to place a red and brown token there, as if you had
rolled a gold/black.
• When you defeat a Draconum, place a shield token on that
space. This counts as an Adventure Site for scoring. You can

When the Red City is conquered, you have one last turn (the
Dummy player does not). Otherwise, the scenario ends after the
third night.
Scoring
If you succeeded in conquering the Red City, you are victorious.
If not, you have failed. In either case, count your score.
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring.
Then score for your goal and for the time to reach it:
• Score 15 points if you conquered the Red City.
• Score an additional 15 points, if you conquered all cities.
• If you finished the game one or more Rounds before the limit,
score 30 points for each such Round.
• Score 1 point for each card in the Dummy Player’s Deed deck
(that was not yet flipped this Round).
• If the End of the Round was not announced yet in your last
Round, score an additional 5 points.
• Score -3 points for each Dummy player shield token on the
map and White City Reference card.
• Score -3 points for each Orc remaining on the map.
• Score -5 points for each Monster (tan) remaining on the map.
• Score -8 points for each Draconum remaining on the map.
• Score -10 points for each map tile not revealed.
Variants
Strongholds:
The Keeps in this land have stronger garrisons, and are led by a
Lord. Try this variant if you own the Lost Legions expansion and
would like a slightly more difficult challenge with more rewards.
• When setting up the game, remove all 6 Banner Artifact cards
from the Artifact deck and create a new face-down Banner
Deck.
• Whenever a Keep (Stronghold) is revealed, place 2 grey
enemy tokens on it, instead of just 1.
• When you conquer a Stronghold, you also gain a Banner
Artifact – draw the top card of the Banner Deck and add it to
the top of your Deed Deck.
• You keep the Banner Artifact even if the Stronghold it came
from is destroyed by a Draconum later.
have multiple shield tokens on the same Rampaging
Draconum space.
Scenario End
When all red tokens have been defeated (i.e. placed in the discard
pile), you have one last turn (the Dummy
Player does not).
Scoring
There is no victory condition; instead, you are trying to achieve
the highest score possible by defeating as many Draconum as you
can.
Take your Fame as the base. Then apply standard Achievements
scoring.
Then score for your goal and for the time to reach it. See the other
side of the Scoring card:
• Score an additional 1 point for each adventure site you
conquered.
• If you finished the game one or more Rounds before the limit,
score 30 points for each such Round.
• Score 1 point for each card in the Dummy Player’s Deed deck
(that was not yet flipped this Round).
• If the End of the Round was not announced yet in your last
Round, score an additional 5 points.
Variants
If you would rather have a defined victory condition, you can set
the difficult for yourself--defeat X Draconum to win.
If that is still too easy, the Blue City is not friendly (but counts
only as 10 points toward final scoring; do not score the "all cities
defeated" bonus).
CITY DEFENSE
Credit: Derkryr
Expansion required: None
Length: 6 rounds: 3 days and 3 nights
You have recently conquered a city and usurped the throne. But
there are still groups faithful to the past king who are coming
for your head. The locals had no love for the past ruler but are
unwilling to support you until you can prove that you are strong
enough to hold the throne. At the end of each night you will be
attacked by supporters of the old regime. Take the days and part
of each night to prepare yourself, then send the scum back from
whence they came. For each wave, you survive you will gain
more support from the citizens.
Setup
• Map shape: concentric rings
• Center: Random tile selected from tile numbers 2, 3 or 10
• 1st ring: 6 random countryside tiles. Reveal these tiles
• 2nd ring: randomly select the remaining countryside and
non-city core tiles. Stack these, alternating countryside
with core, beginning and with countryside. When
exploring, place tiles from this stack as usual. You must
form a ring around the current tiles, you cannot expand past
that ring. (This ring does not have to be completed).
Choose a city at random that represents a different color than
that of your character. Place that city at level 3 in the center hex
of the center tile. This is your recently conquered city. Place the
enemy tokens based on the city level face down on the city card.
Special Rules
You start in the city.
City difficulties start at level 3 and increase by 3 each round.
Thus 3/6/9 for the complete session.
At first you have no support from the locals so you get no
bonuses from your city. For each wave survived add a shield
token to the city card. You will get 1 influence per shield token
when in the city. Also, you will get +1 card per shield token on
the city card when in the city or on an adjacent tile.
Elite units will be available as usual (once a core tile is
revealed).
On the last turn of each night your city will be assaulted by the
enemies on the city card. These enemies gain no bonuses (it is
your city) and lose any fortification (your archers have the high
ground). You must be in the city when end of round for the
night is announced. If not, you fail.
Any undefeated attackers will stay on the card at the beginning
of the next round and must be defeated before you can leave or
interact in the city again. Once all defenders are defeated turn
the city dial 2 notches, place these units on the city card face
down. These units will attack at the end of the coming night. (If
you are unable to defeat the previous attacker(s) before the end
of the next night you fail.)
Any rules not mentioned follow normal solo play rules.
Victory Conditions
If you get knocked out during city defense, you fail.
If you are not in the city when end of turn for night is
announced, you fail.
At the end of the 3rd night, all attackers must be defeated to
achieve victory.
Scoring
Give yourself fame equal to the level of the city for each wave
defeated. Give yourself 15 fame for successfully defending the
city. Receive all other normal end game bonuses.
LONG NIGHT OF THE DRAGON RIDER
Credit: thewatermelonman
Expansion required: None
Length: 7 rounds (3 days and 3 nights, followed by a special night round)
For travelers who visit the portal it is common to see a small crowd of aspiring mages gathering to practice their magic. In the
surrounding glade, the mana is heavy in the air and the young would-be warlocks and wizards harness it to practice their spells. Mostly
this happens to excellent comic effect, with sparks of unsuccessful sorcery flying hither and thither, and creatures nursing singed
eyebrows from their failed fireballs. But behind the jovial atmosphere there is a quiet earnestness to the rehearsals, governed by the
glowing hole at the center of the glade. One day each of those present hopes to summon enough command of the Source to take the
14
To alter difficulty, you can:
• change city levels
• turn the city dial more or less in between rounds
• give attacking units city bonuses and fortification.
Variants
At the beginning of the night round roll a mana die. This will
determine where the enemies will be attacking from. If you roll
gold it will represent the starting countryside tile at 12 o'clock,
white is the tile at 2 o'clock, red - 4 o'clock, black - 6 o'clock,
blue - 8 o'clock, green - 10 o'clock.
Place an unused hero miniature/Volkare on the farthest space
from your city on the corresponding countryside tile. There may
be 2 or 3 spaces that are equally distant in that case use the flow
below for movement to place the unit.
After each dummy turn move the miniature 1 space closer to
your city using the quickest possible path (it should take 3 turns
for the enemies to reach the space adjacent to your city).
If there are 2 moving options that will get to the city equally
fast then here is the flow:
• Move onto a space with an enemy token, remove this token
from the board and add it to the city space.
if that is not possible then:
• Move to the space with highest move cost (never move it
onto a mountain space or lake space unless there is no other
option)
If neither of the above fits then:
• Randomly determine which space to move to
You may attack the invaders at any point during the night,
however you must move onto the space with the miniature to
attack. You cannot taunt them like rampaging enemies and
attack from an adjacent space. If they are on unreachable terrain
for any reason then you cannot attack them.
Once the miniature reaches the space adjacent to the city it will
attempt to enter on its next turn.
If end of round has been declared then you must defend the city
when the invaders move in. If you cannot defeat all enemies
then you fail the scenario.
If end of round has not been declared then you may defend the
city and fight the enemies if you are present in the city. You
must defeat at least one enemy token or you suffer the penalty
below as if the city was undefended. If you destroy all the
tokens then continue out the round as normal. If you are not in
the city and choose not to defend it then there is a penalty:
• The first turn you do not defend, but your walls hold and
repel the attackers, you suffer no penalty
• The 2nd turn you do not defend you lose 1 reputation, if
your rep cannot decrease anymore then you lose 1 fame
instead (if this puts you back a level you do not return the
rewards for gaining that level, nor do you collect rewards
if/when you pass that level again.)
• The 3rd turn you do not defend the city you will downgrade
the unit offer. This means that you will change 1 elite unit
in the offer into a regular unit for the rest of the game,
instead of revealing 2 gold units you will only reveal 1 and
2 gray units (use a token to mark this). If you have not yet
earned elite units then you will lose 1 space in the unit offer
(either the far left or far right, decide which before starting
the scenario. Also use a token to mark this). Once gold
units are revealed if you have this penalty then this gold
unit slot becomes a regular unit slot instead.
• If you cannot defend the city a 4th time you lose the
scenario.
plunge into that hole. That day they will ride the energy to wherever it takes them, returning with heroic tales and relics from far off
lands, and that day they will finally be able to call themselves true Mage Knights.

Those who are most serious practice early in the morning, before the bumbling attempts of others cloud the purity of the Source. Today,
as on most days, you rose before dawn to be the first to arrive. As your boots crunch though the frost, you watch the first shimmers of
sunlight peeking over the horizon and chasing away the dark magic of the night. With a few more months of preparations you will be
ready to take the plunge, and will be one of the youngest mages to do so. As you approach the portal an unusual feeling stops you just
short of the glade: there is a strange sadness to the way the mana rests in the air. Gazing through the trees you notice that you are not
the first to arrive. Sitting in the grass of the glade, clutching her knees to her chest is a dark-haired damsel in a red dress.
Instead of entering the glade you take time to observe her from the cover of the trees. She is not someone you have seen at the glade
before, and the longer you look the more mesmerized you become by her beauty. Regretting your rugged training garb is not more
suited to engaging a lady in conversation, you decide to talk to her before any other mages arrive. You approach her with your best
smile and - not knowing what else to say - ask her what you would have to do to win her heart. Without a word, she immediately bursts
into tears and buries her face between her knees. Abashed, you sit down beside her and awkwardly wait.
After a few minutes, she turns to you and speaks. “There is but one thing that any creature alive could do to win my heart. The great
Dragon Rider and his army ride against the land of my ancestors. In three days, they will cross the portal and burn its cities. There is
no one in the land brave enough to lead an army against him, but any man who did would have my heart from now until my dying
breath.”
Perhaps it is her beauty, perhaps it is the air in the glade magnifying her plight, perhaps it is the yearning for adventure that has always
burned within your soul, but you promise the maiden that it is you who will challenge the dragon rider at the portal in three days’ time.
You kiss her on the cheek, and before you have time to change your mind you plunge headlong into the portal in the center of the glade.
Bright light and colors wash over you and wash through you, shaking you to the bone. You make a vain attempt to control it, but it fills
your head until your temples ache.
All in a moment the light subsides and you find yourself lying on the grass next to the portal once again. You look up and see the same
sun, not rising amongst the trees but shining at you across a dazzling ocean. You sense the same sadness in the air, and know you have
come to the right place. The realization strikes of what you have promised to do, and you clamber to your feet still holding your head.
You cannot fight the Dragon Rider on your own, but as you set off inland you tell yourself there must be someone in this land who will
join you…

Setup
Map shape: Open limited to 3 columns
Countryside tiles: 9
City tiles: 3
Tile order: 5 countryside, city, 2 countryside, city, 2

Special Rules
Dummy Player
At the beginning of the game:
• Do not place any crystals in the dummy player’s
inventory
• Place the four city miniatures next to the dummy player
and set all the dials to zero (the black setting). During the
game these dials will represent the armies of the dragon
rider massing at the magic portal.
Choosing tactic cards:
• Deal 3 tactic cards to yourself and 3 to the dummy player.
• The dummy player chooses the middle of his three.
• You may choose from the three that you have been dealt.
On the dummy player's turn:
• Reveal one card only
• Add a crystal matching the color of the card to the
dummy player’s inventory, unless they already have two
crystals of that color.
• Increase the dial of the matching colored city by the
number of crystals of that color in the dummy player’s
inventory (either one or two).
• If the city is already on level 11 then this has no effect.
• Example: The dummy player reveals a red card. You look
at his inventory and notice there are already two red
crystals, so you do not add another one. The red city is on
level 7 so you increase it to level 9.
End of the round:
• The dummy player never announces the end of the round.
• If you have no cards remaining in your draw deck at the
end of your turn (after drawing your new hand) you may
immediately end the round. The dummy player has no
further turns. Note this is different from the normal rule of
announcing the round end.
• Remove all crystals from the dummy player’s inventory.
• Do not add any cards to the dummy player's deck.
• Reshuffle the dummy player’s deck to form a new draw
pile.
Cities
Revealing and entering cities:
• When you reveal a city leave the city miniature by the
dummy player and treat the city as a printed location on
the board.
• When you enter a city the guardians of the city challenge
you at the gate before you have a chance to explain
yourself. If this is the first or second city you have entered
draw two white enemies to fight. In the third city, you
enter draw three white enemies. These enemies do not
benefit from the fortification or the special powers of the
city (as they are outside the gate).
• In the moments following the heat of combat you seize the
chance to speak of the evil that looms in the south. The
guardians hear your words and insist that they will help
you in your quest. Discard any of the white enemies you
did not conquer, and enter the city. If you managed to
defeat any of them you still gain fame as normal and
place a shield on the city for each token you defeated.
Gain a reputation (NB: you did not ‘assault’ the city so
you do not lose a reputation).
• Being in or adjacent to a friendly city increases your hand
limit by one for each shield you have on the city.
• When interacting in a friendly city you receive influence
1 for each shield you have on the city
The assistance of the guardians:
• In the blue city, you are offered an ancient scroll and a
pouch containing rare gems. Gain a spell from the spell
offer and gain a crystal of the matching color to your
inventory.
• In the red city, the guardians offer you a precious relic of
power that has been in the city for many
generations. Gain an artifact.
• The white city promises their greatest warrior to travel
and battle with you at the portal. Add three advanced
units to the unit offer, and then recruit any one unit for
free.
In the green city, the guardians offer you a tattered book
of sacred knowledge. Gain a skill and an advanced action
in the same way as if you had just levelled up. Instead of
drawing from your own skill pile, draw the two skills
from the dummy player's pile. If you choose to take a skill
from the common offer you may choose to take one of
your own previously discarded skills.
• In the third city, you enter the guardians also offer you
and your companions the choice of the best steeds from
their stables to hasten your return to the portal. Until the
end of the third night the value of all movement points
you play are doubled.

15
Scenario End
End of round six:
• If you are on the portal any time during the third night
you may announce the end of the round even if your draw
deck is not empty.
• If you have not returned to the portal by the end of the
third night, count the number of spaces remaining to
reach the portal and add a wound to your deck for each
remaining space, then place your figure on the portal.
Differences from normal rounds:
• The final battle is a special night round that takes place
after the third night round.
• The dummy player does not participate in the final battle.
Set aside the tactic cards, as they will not be required.
Reshuffle all of the enemies in the game into new piles.
• The opening of the magic portal generates a vast quantity
of magic energy, increasing your ability to draw from the
source. Add two additional dice to the source.
• Each turn still has a movement and action phase as
normal. You may not move, but playing movement points
could help you with abilities such as Wings of Night. You
must spend your action phase in combat, and you may not
choose to rest.
Waves of enemies:
• The enemies will approach in four waves played over four
turns; take the four city miniatures and arrange them in
order of lowest to highest level. If there are multiple cities
with the same level, randomly choose the order of them.
• Take the enemies pictured on the first city and reveal
them.
• Each wave consists of battling all the currently revealed
enemies. The enemies are not fortified unless they have a
fortification symbol on their token, and do not benefit
from bonuses on any city card.
• For each of the second, third and fourth waves, add the
enemies pictured on the city’s dial to any enemies that
were not defeated from the previous wave.
• If you have not defeated all the enemies at the end of the
fourth wave you may continue with additional turns
fighting the remaining enemies. You should have enough
cards in your deck for about 5 turns.
The Dragon Rider:
• In the fourth wave one of the white enemies revealed will
be the Dragon Rider.
• Randomly choose one of the white tokens and draw a red
token to place next to it. These two tokens are one enemy.
• Add their values together to determine the strength of
attack and their armor value.
• If a fortification, special ability, resistance, or element of
attack is present on either token then the Dragon Rider
has it.
Victory Conditions
• If you are knocked out in combat at any point in the final
battle then you lose the scenario. You also lose if you
reach the end of the 7th round and there are still enemies
left undefeated.
• You win by defeating all the enemies in the final battle
without being knocked out.
