When you assign dice to villains, if you manage to get one dice for each face needed, you can add one damage token to this card at the end of your dice rolling phase. In the second phase, players continue as before, but must also now fight the Final Battles at Wulong Forest, the Fire Nation Palace, and Ba Sing Se in an attempt to end the Hundred Year War. x 11” hardcover book featuring beautiful full-color art, all the core rules for the game, information on playing your game in one of five different eras, examples for quick and easy play, and ten playbook archetypes. If any one team is completely defeated, or if 10 or more total Heroes are defeated, the players cannot stop the Fire Nation and have lost the game.

Product description: Based on the Avatar film by James Cameron, the game continues the story introduced into the film thanks to a board game requiring good sense and strategy. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. When either side reaches the top of their track, the Day of Black Sun event is triggered, giving a significant advantage to the side that reached the top.Contains 15 narrative encounters and 12 replayable combat challenges, inspired by the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender. It's fun to be able to roll lots of dice, get more dice, be able to manipulate your rolls a little, and grow you powers as you build up your armies.

First off, there was only one page of vague instructions in English, plus a hint card, and it was not clear at all just how the game was to be played. For all the camaraderie and moral considerations that suffuse the Avatarverse, the protagonists spend quite a lot of time getting in fights, and Avatar Legends is no different. A character who was an urban outlaw may be able to avoid pursuing police officers by dodging into a crowd by relying on their skills and training – they’ve been doing this since they were a kid. If a character is doing something that’s definitely in their wheelhouse, then they’re relying on skills and training.In addition to those drives, the playbook provides starting stat modifiers, background questions on the character that need to be answered, ways that the character connects to other player characters, and moves specific to that playbook.

A game giving experience for defeating monsters is combat encourages players to go get in a lot of fights. For anyone else, this could work for you if you enjoy dice games, and want some theme to go with your rolls.Combat exchanges are a bit more complex than my platonic ideal of a Powered by the Apocalypse roleplaying game, but they also embody the Avatarverse very well – slick martial arts/bending fights are a big part of the shows. Those are the only “basic” moves, but there’s another set of moves that are, although not labeled basic, just as important and universal as the basic moves.

Well, there are distinct bending techniques for once the characters are in a combat exchange (same for the non-bending trainings). The fire nation statue itself will also attack, adding one damage to all hero's in its current location, including those in front of the active player if they placed their token into this same location. In this cooperative card and dice game, players must work together to recruit other Heroes from the four nations and battle a variety of Villains leading up to the Day of the Black Sun. Avatar Legends gives all characters experience for three things (1) learning something noteworthy about the world; (2) stopping a threat or otherwise solving a problem; and (3) moving towards a balance between the character’s principles. Let each player choose a character to play as, taking their player board, token and card, and placing it in front of them.This spread includes several ways of interacting with NPCs (that each use a different stat), a move to encourage emotional support between characters, and a generic ‘figure out what’s up’ move. So, I mentioned stats above, and almost every roleplaying game needs some sort of method of conflict resolution, and I should probably mention that at some point. Players will now take it in turns to place their character token into one of the three locations on the main board. Games can take place in five eras, mostly defined by who the Avatar was at the time – the Kyoshi era, the Roku era, the Hundred Year War Era, the Aang era, and the Korra era (if you’re a stickler about timelines, the Aang and Korra eras are officially defined as occurring after the TV shows and after certain events from the comics). If you reach the top of the balance track before or at the same time as the ruin track, the villains will go.
