Vanguard of War

About this board game

Vanguard of War is a 1–4-player game with an approximately 60-minute play time, focused on defending a small church from waves of demons.

The battle takes place deep inside the decaying ruins of a once-great city known only as the Whispers. Within the church, allies desperately attempt to learn how to use the fel army’s own doomsday weapon against its creators, while the heroes face the danger outside.

Players use their heroes to hold the line against seemingly endless waves of demons. The game’s central conflict brings together a desperate defense, a ruined city, and the possibility of turning the enemy’s most devastating weapon against them.
