Welcome to Ashes Reborn! The expandable card game by Isaac Vega has been updated and re-released to bring this acclaimed title back to the players! Featuring visionary art by Fernanda Suarez, Ashes introduces the world of Argaia, where powerful wizard-warriors called Phoenixborn have saved humanity and now face off against each other to claim ultimate godhood.
Choose your Phoenixborn and use imaginative cards and custom dice to craft your perfect deck. Summon faithful allies, combine powerful spells, and outwit your opponents in a fast-paced back and forth barrage of well-crafted magic and strategic skill!
Ashes features many unique twists to the customizable card game genre, putting the control of the powerful Phoenixborn into the hands of the players. Here are a few stand-outs:
- Choose your first hand! The First Five mechanic allows players to start the game with five cards of their choice giving them a solid footing in the direction they intend their deck to work.
- Use dice as resources! The Dice Pool mechanic gives players the resources that they need to bring out powerful spells and creatures moments after the game begins, while still offering an interesting array of powers on their own.
- Unique back and forth gameplay! The Action system allows players to choose their targets carefully and consistently plan their strategy around their opponent’s upcoming actions. Turns consist of short actions that keep players engaged and allow for adjustments in play as the round progresses.
Ashes Reborn features many substantial improvements over the original release of Ashes. With streamlined rules, simplified card text, and balance adjustments in place, Ashes Reborn is the best way to play! Plaid Hat Games has partnered with Team Covenant and their Player Driven Production model to offer the latest Ashes Reborn content via subscription; if the players want more Ashes, we are here to provide it! Team Covenant has a 3-month exclusivity on all new Ashes Reborn products in the United States.
Now is the best time to get involved in playing Ashes! New and old players alike can get in on the action with the Reborn Upgrade Kit; a 378-card box to fully update any existing Ashes products you may have. Or if you are starting your Ashes collection from the beginning, pick up the revised Master Set and any of the many revised expansion decks, featuring fully playable preconstructed decks!
