Battleground Fantasy Warfare: Orc Army (2005)

About this game

Not playable on their own as you need two starter decks to play the game. Battleground Fantasy Warfare is a point-based tabletop tactical wargame in which units are represented by cards. Overrun your enemies with a battle-hardened orc army. Flank your opponent with lightning-fast goblin wolf riders and smash them with mighty regenerating trolls.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.8/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
