Chain Reaction
This week, swing wildly with a weapon deadly to the undead, and pick up a weapon previously only available at PAX Aus! Read on!
New Weapon: Chain Flail
It looks like the recent Team Bonuses have had the desired effect. From Adana to Zhul’Kari, teams of charged-up Chimeras, powered-up Paladins, and beefed-up Berserkers have been wreaking havoc. It’s been the souped-up Skeletons causing problems in Sword’s Edge, though. So Queen Ysabelle has commissioned their smiths to create a new weapon, a Chain Flail… the scourge of any invaders daring enough to include even a single Undead troop in their forces!
Previously only available from the PAXAUS Gems of War booth, Crimson Insignia is now available to all in the store! The Crimson Insignia is a strong tool for anyone who likes to put a lot of Red Mana on the board.
The fearsome flesh stripping Bone Dragon is now available in chests. Destroy an enemy’s armour and create skulls on the board to level the playing field. Just be careful they don’t get used against you!
As we’re giving away more Glory as of late, Glory costs on event items have slightly increased. Accountants everywhere are celebrating!
