About this expansion

Nova Aetas Renaissance: Hyperion is a 1–6 player game experience with an approximately 90-minute play time, centered on a fiery Titan and a dangerous hunt. It introduces a mini-side-campaign that culminates in a decisive battle against Hyperion.

In the special Hunt Missions, heroes pursue a lethal opponent controlled by dedicated Action Cards. Each card describes Hyperion’s action and its Action Point cost, including attacks, movement, and special abilities. To survive, heroes must learn the Titan’s patterns and anticipate the moves of their prey.

These missions can be played multiple times, giving players the opportunity to obtain new reagents for crafting on each attempt. The result is a focused boss-fight format built around observation, adaptation, and repeated challenges.

  • A mini-side-campaign leading to a fight against Hyperion
  • Special Action Cards governing the boss’s attacks, movement, and abilities
  • Replayable Hunt Missions with opportunities to gain new crafting reagents

Hyperion can also enter Black Rose Wars as a powerful asymmetrical Mage. His basic deck contains six Unique Spells, while three copies of his Personal Spell support his distinctive play style. During the game, he can transform into a Burning Legion made up of three Myrmidons, with each form offering different advantages and disadvantages.

His three new Lodge Rooms can be used for teleportation or as a Cell when he returns to the game after being defeated. Two new Forgotten Spells further expand the crossover, allowing standard Black Rose Wars games to summon either Hyperion or the three Myrmidons. Nova Aetas Renaissance: Hyperion therefore offers both a dedicated Titan hunt and new possibilities for Black Rose Wars.
