Tiny Epic Mechs: Deluxe Edition

Players act as agile Mech pilots competing in a six-round, arena-style battle royale. Each round players program four actions from a set of eight, then resolve those actions one step at a time around the table. Actions move pilots through the arena, deploy defensive turrets, plant hidden-value land mines, gather resources, buy weapons, and power up into personal Power Armor or the single, central Mech Suit. When pilots meet, fast combat resolves with alternating weapon uses; each weapon can be fired once per engagement and weapon types form a rock–paper–scissors relationship that rewards timing and counters. Scoring comes from dazzling combat damage, area control each other round, control of the Mech, and weapons held at game end. Deluxe copies include Kickstarter-exclusive components and all campaign stretch goals.
