Monolith Arena: Academics

About this expansion

Monolith Arena: Academics is an Army Pack for 2–4 players, with games lasting about 45 minutes. Released in 2019, it introduces a new army and a new type of experience to Monolith Arena.

The Academics are a focused, well-trained army built around precision and strength. Their tile deck contains many runes and upgrades, giving this force a distinctive set of tools to bring into the fray.

Although the Academics have few units, those units are powerful. Their limited numbers are balanced by strong individual capabilities, creating an army that emphasizes quality over quantity.

• A focused, well-trained new army for Monolith Arena
• Many runes and upgrades in the Academics’ tile deck
• Few but powerful units
• A banner that slows opponent tiles
• An emphasis on weakening the enemy

The Academics also excel at weakening opposing forces. Their banner slows enemy tiles, adding another way for this army to influence the conflict and interfere with the opponent’s plans.

As the first Army Pack for Monolith Arena, Academics offers players a fresh force to command while preserving the setting and core battlefield context of the original game. Its combination of runes, upgrades, powerful units, and enemy-slowing effects gives the army a clear identity.

Whether you are exploring a new army or looking for a different experience in Monolith Arena, the Academics bring a disciplined approach to the battlefield. Prepare to lead this specialized force into the fray.
