This War of Mine: Rubble Die

About this expansion

This War of Mine: Rubble Die is a game element for 1–6 players, with a listed play time of 120 minutes and a 2017 release year. It represents the decision to sacrifice some time while searching through a location.

When you choose to take this risk, you roll the Rubble Die. The roll usually produces one of the more probable results, reflecting the ordinary outcome of spending additional time searching. However, the die also offers the possibility of something far less common.

From time to time, a roll can produce a very hard-to-get result. This exceptionally rare outcome may trigger an extremely rare finding or an event, giving the decision to search longer an uncertain but potentially significant consequence.

• Risk versus reward: Sacrifice time for the possibility of finding more.
• Unpredictable rolls: Most results are probable, but rare outcomes remain possible.
• Rare discoveries: The hardest result can trigger an extremely rare finding or event.

The Rubble Die adds a focused choice to location searches: accept the cost of spending more time, then see what the roll reveals. Because the most extraordinary results are uncommon, every decision carries uncertainty rather than a guaranteed payoff.

In This War of Mine: Rubble Die, the search itself becomes a calculated gamble. The die keeps the usual results likely while preserving the tension of occasionally uncovering something exceptionally rare.
