Duel of Ages - Set 1 - Worldspanner
From the Publisher...
Behind the stunning artistry of Duel of Ages lies an epic, deeply intriguing strategy game that will capture your
attention for years to come.
Build the uniquely modular game map (using the PAKIT board game system) to your own advantage, thwarting the
enemy's attempt to do the same.
Accept a random roster of heroic characters, each with radically different abilities. Discover a way to turn this diverse
group into an effective team.
To survive, your team must acquire strange and deadly equipment by confronting the illusionary guardians of the
labyrinths.
But through every minute of play, the enemy will be uncomfortably close, hounding your team as you hound theirs...
With character teams, equipment, and even the map itself changing from game to game, you will discover a
unique experience with each play.
No matter your gaming background be it role-playing, hard-bitten wargaming, or relaxing nights with family or
friends you will find an enjoyable experience that is both easy to learn, fun to play, and rich with imagination.

| This game is great. I love most all games and have quite a few to choose from, but when we get together to play, this is almost invariably the one we choose. I have the first expansion on order. |

Those flying rhinos
| I am a gaming geek, and as such have played many board games, and I will say without hesitation that this game is the greatest of them all. Because of it's unique team mechanic this game combines the fun of a cooperative game with that of a competitive game. Those who are into strategy games will love the strategic aspect of duel of ages, but we have found even those who are not can easily enjoy this game. Who wouldn't enjoy a game in which Robin Hood can kill Napoleon by unleashing a Velociraptor, and Blackbeard can chase Davy Crocket on his mountain bike? |
Damon Asher
| No other game I have played generates a rich, entertaining narrative like this one. The character's abilities all fit so well with the archetypes they represent, that you can't help but become immersed in the story as you play with them (unlike many other similar games where characters are just a series of stats). The rules are streamlined enough that they get out of the way and let you enjoy the action and strategy. Tons and tons of replay value here! |
