Cthulhu Wars: Duel

Two players take command of rival apocalyptic deities and fight for dominance over a devastated Earth. Each side fields distinct forces, special powers, and asymmetric strategies as they summon cultists, spawn monsters, and unleash world-shaping abilities. Gameplay is a compact, fast-moving strategy duel that uses cardboard standees instead of large miniatures to save space and speed setup. Players manage resources and area control, resolve conflicts through tactical movement and combat, and pursue objectives that shift the balance of power until one Great Old One rules the ruins.
