Knockdown: Volume III

About this board game

Knockdown: Volume III is a board game for 2–4 players with a play time of 45 minutes. This expansion adds three fighters known from the Tainted Grail board game: Mistbearer, Maggot, and Lost Knight.

The set also introduces a new Basic Attack deck with two cards: Wyrdness and Throw. Wyrdness causes the fighter who draws it to suffer wounds, but provides two symbols instead of one. Throw lets you throw your rival to a space within a certain range and deal some damage.

Volume III includes a new arena built around an altar holding a single candle. When playing in this arena, shuffle four candle cards into the Basic Attack deck and place two light tokens at the arena’s edges.

As the candle is drawn from the deck, the area protected by the altar becomes smaller. Fighters standing outside the candle’s range suffer a heavy wound at the beginning of their turns, making the changing light an important part of the arena’s rules.

• Three fighters: Mistbearer, Maggot, and Lost Knight
• Two new Basic Attack cards: Wyrdness and Throw
• A new arena featuring an altar, candle cards, and light tokens
• Components that can be mixed with all other Knockdown boxes

With its new fighters, attack cards, and candle-lit arena, Knockdown: Volume III expands the available components while remaining compatible with the rest of the Knockdown boxes.
