Archon Arena

Welcome to the diminutive universe of Nemyne, an entire world on the head of a pin, literally. At these scales magic is real, fantastical beasts roam, and good and evil vie for supremacy. At the heart of Nemyne is Archon Arena. Here the lords of the land, the Archons, wage ruthless battles night and day. Combatants with equal resources call forth the power of melee and magic: weapons, armor, maneuvers, spells and potions, all under the watchful eye of the battle leader. They have only one goal, to eliminate the opponent. Winning means prestige and acclaim; and being the target of countless challengers. Transport yourself to the world of Nemyne, where Archon Arena tournaments beckon you. Enter if you dare!
Game Play
Two players begin with equal decks that are randomly divided into three piles, one for each upcoming battle. For a given battle each player chooses a surprise reserve card and a leader who grants a special ability. Then a round consists of playing cards simultaneously and tallying damage. The battle is complete when one or both players lose all their hit points, and the overall winner is the player who wins more of the three battles.
Current State
After play testing using printed business cards, the game has gone through two versions of custom printed plastic coated playing cards. Currently, there are 4 sets of the game available for further play testing and demoing. Logo and box cover artwork are being commissioned, and we've started distributing copies of Archon Arena for blind play testing review. Finally, a KickStarter will be run to pay for additional custom artwork and to get the game into the hands of more people.
