About this board game
Relicblade: Adventure Battle Game is a fast-paced fantasy skirmish game for 2–4 players, with a listed play time of 60 minutes. Players command small parties of detailed 30mm miniatures as they clash amid the ruins of an ancient world.
One side leads heroes on a righteous quest, while another harnesses the brutal fury of the pig men. Battles focus on an unidentified magic item that has drawn the characters to the area. The goal is not simply to defeat the opposing force, but to seize the mysterious relic and turn its power to your advantage.
Each character’s statistics and abilities appear on a convenient character card. Tactical depth comes from choosing among dozens of unique upgrades, allowing you to specialize your fighters for the battle ahead. A druid might become a support healer, for example, or transform her bear form into a powerful damage-dealing monstrosity.
- Small-scale battles featuring three to six characters
- Detailed 30mm miniatures and character cards
- Dozens of upgrades for character specialization
- Randomly drawn relics with exceptional powers
When a character claims the relic, it is drawn randomly from the Relic Deck. Relics provide an unnatural boon and function like upgrades, but they are far more powerful. If their wielder is disabled, however, any character can pick the relic up and claim its advantage.
Standard games use a compact 2’ × 2’ playing area and usually last around 45 minutes, while the listed play time is 60 minutes. With dynamic objectives, specialized characters, and high-impact relics, Relicblade delivers quick, tactical fantasy battles where fortune and daring can change the course of the fight.
