About this expansion

Cloudspire: The Uprising – Faction/Content Expansion is a faction and gameplay refresher for 1–4 players, with a listed play time of 180 minutes. Released in 2021, it introduces a militia formed from the diverse races living below Ankar.

The Uprising is led by the vengeance-seeking Netorut, who has reverse engineered gateport technology to launch an invasion onto the joined islands. Their goal is to reap plunder amid the chaos, bringing a distinctive presence to the world of Cloudspire.

Rather than functioning as a typical faction, The Uprising relies primarily on mercenary chips drafted from the market. This creates a faction built around selecting and assembling forces from available market options, while also adding content that can be used beyond the Uprising itself.

  • Multiple market heroes, minions, spires, and equipment for The Uprising
  • Components that can be shuffled into the market regardless of which factions are in play
  • Four solo scenarios for individual play
  • Two cooperative scenarios for shared play

The expansion therefore serves two roles: it gives players a new faction experience and refreshes the wider game with additional market content. Its heroes, minions, spires, and equipment can support The Uprising or become part of other faction matchups, increasing the ways the available market can be used.

With its mixed-race militia, reverse engineered gateport technology, and scenario content for both solo and cooperative games, Cloudspire: The Uprising expands the setting while providing flexible additions for a range of player counts.
