Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles – Nemeses

About this expansion

Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles – Nemeses is a 2021 expansion set for 1-5 players, with a play time of about 90 minutes. It challenges the Heroes to face an extraordinary opponent: their own dark side.

Each Hero’s Nemesis is an “evil twin,” embodying the darkest thoughts and fears hidden within that Hero. These beings represent the evil recesses of their souls, transforming the Heroes’ inner darkness into a direct and formidable threat.

A Nemesis is a being of pure evil with one purpose: the destruction of the Hero. To pursue that goal, it possesses skills and powers to match the Hero it opposes, creating a confrontation centered on a deeply personal enemy.

• Face a Hero’s own dark side.
• Battle an evil twin with matching skills and powers.
• Use the included Bond cards.

Rather than introducing an unrelated foe, Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles – Nemeses focuses on the conflict between a Hero and the darkness that mirrors them. The expansion’s Nemeses embody fear, evil, and destructive purpose, giving the Heroes an extraordinary opponent to overcome.

With its focused theme and included Bond cards, this expansion broadens the Ancient Chronicles experience while keeping the spotlight on the Heroes and their personal Nemeses. It offers a dark challenge for groups ranging from one to five players.
