Black Rose Wars: Rebirth

In the ruined lodge of a once-powerful cabal, rival mages return to contest a century-long crown. Players take the role of arcane duelists who program spells onto personal boards and resolve them in initiative order, using deck-building and spell placement to shape each turn. Spells disable opponents, set traps, bolster defenses, summon creatures, or inflict damage, while positioning on a hex grid matters for range and tactics. When a mage is defeated they are returned to their room and re-enter the fight, altering positioning and plans but keeping them in the competition. Plays with 1–4 players; modular additions increase strategic variety and replayability.
