The Dark Order

Fight to survive in a plague-ravaged dark-fantasy world as a commander leading a unique faction. Deploy units, issue tactical orders, and provide support with medkits, traps, or weapons while resources dwindle and the battlefield shifts. Manage your hand, resources, and Battle Reserve through back-and-forth combat. Send troops to the front lines or scavenging locations, use cards in multiple ways, bluff, and take calculated risks. Every action depletes the reserve, while wounds and exhaustion weaken your forces, creating a race to outlast the opposing commander.
