Tsukuyumi: Full Moon Down

A post-apocalyptic faction war set after the Moon has fallen and revealed itself as a godlike dragon. Players each take one of five asymmetrical factions—human soldiers, mutated boars, insect swarms, cyber-enhanced samurai, or dragon-hunting zealots—each with unique units, abilities and starting setups. Play proceeds through repeated rounds of phased actions (white/blue/green/red) in which players collect resources, bid for action cards to determine initiative and available actions, generate and move units, and resolve combat. Victory points come from controlling areas, completing goals and pursuing faction-specific missions; the game ends after a preset number of rounds.
