Duel of Meloch

Two players face off in an asymmetric, 45-minute duel that combines mechanics from a territorial engine-builder and an expedition-style game. One side uses rules and components from the engine-building faction set; the other uses the expedition rules with unique mech, character, and companion options. Play occurs on a compact, double-sided map with only 10 locations and two lakes, racing to earn four stars on a dedicated Triumph Track. Each turn matters: players expand, resolve encounters, deploy units, and engage in combat while a central antagonist effect gives a small benefit to the opponent whenever a star is placed. Components and cards are compatible with the parent games but everything needed to play is included.
