Confrontation: Dogs of War

About this expansion

Confrontation: Dogs of War is a two-player expansion for Confrontation 3, offering approximately 90 minutes of play and a campaign-style way to develop a free company across successive skirmish scenarios.

Take charge of a company assembled from fighters drawn from the four corners of Aarklash. As your force seeks glory and riches, you must respect the rules governing alliances while shaping a group that can face new challenges from one exciting battle to the next.

The battles have lasting consequences for the soldiers who fight them. Rather than focusing on a single Character through the older Incarnation system, this mode lets you unite different fighters, personalize them, and allow them to evolve freely over time.

• Recruit new fighters for your growing free company.
• Improve characteristics, abilities, and equipment.
• Manage wounded fighters and the company’s resources.
• Carry the effects of one skirmish into the next.

These progression and management elements extend the enjoyment beyond an individual game. Your company changes as its members gain experience, suffer injuries, and receive new improvements, creating an ongoing journey through the battles of Aarklash.

Dogs of War also enhances the rules for fortifications and scenery, while revising the rules for nexuses referenced in Cry Havoc, volume 01. Together, these additions expand the tactical and narrative possibilities available to Confrontation players.

Released in 2006, Confrontation: Dogs of War expands Confrontation with a new mode centered on recruiting, customization, development, and the consequences of battle.
