A Long Delayed Update
To be honest, I have no good excuse. This January-February I had family stuff and got engaged, but I know there is no good reason to make you all wait for games and updates. As of now, the games DONE, APPROVED, and PACKED. They will be in transit to your countries soon. Here is an update in the meantime.
There were requests to know more about how the new SOLO and 2P rules work. Here is a preview of the rules that we have included in the Glory Expansion. These variants are inspired by Mauricio Camacho Antezana's version on BGG.
(Some details hidden until you receive the game)
SOLO:
This Solo Variant incorporates new Events and Terror rules. The aim is to manage the reshuffles and Terror Die so that you can defeat the vile creatures of Draconis before the Retreat card is revealed.
Choose your difficulty mode for Invaders defeated:
• Defeat exactly N Invaders (Easy, Normal, and Hard Mode change the N = Numbers of Invaders)
The setup is similar to the base game. However, use the three special “Solo-2P” Events.
You may skip a turn to reshuffle and refresh Campaigns and Invaders. Ignore effects. If you do this, increase the Terror Die by 1.
Discarded Terror will not increase the Terror Die. But the Die increases by 1 when you reshuffle your deck. If you gain Terror cards, choose to trash them immediately and increase the Terror Die by 1 for each trashed Terror card.
Keep defeated Invaders and Campaigns face-up and score those Glory Points immediately. To win, reach at least 35 Glory Points within the required kill count before the Retreat card appears. Do not resolve the final Event or final Invader card effect. You must subtract 3 Glory Points from your score for each Terror card that remains in your deck, hand, and discard pile.
2-PLAYER:
This 2-Player Co-op Variant incorporates new Events and Terror rules. The aim is to manage reshuffles and Terror so that you can defeat the creatures of Draconis before the Retreat card is revealed.
Choose your difficulty mode for Invaders defeated:
• Defeat exactly N Invaders (Easy, Normal, and Hard Mode change the N = Numbers of Invaders)
The setup is similar to the base game. However, use the three “Solo-2P” Events.
You may skip a turn to reshuffle and refresh Campaigns and Invaders. Ignore effects. If you do this, increase the Terror Die by 1.
Choose the 1st player. Discarded Terror will not increase the Terror Die. But the Die increases by 1 when the 1st player reshuffles their deck. If you gain Terror cards, choose to trash them immediately and increase the Terror Die by 1 for each trashed Terror card.
Keep defeated Invaders and Campaigns face-up and score those Glory Points immediately. To win, reach at least 70 Glory Points combined within the required kill count before the Retreat card appears. Do not resolve the final Event or final Invader card effect. You must subtract 1 Glory Points from your score for each Terror card that remains in your deck, hand, and discard pile. If you are victorious, increase the difficulty and/or modify the available card market.
All this stuff is coming to you soon. Thank you for your patience with me in the ups and downs of life and game creation. I appreciate all your support and encouragement to create this game. The gameplay we have had with this final version has been so fun! I assure you that you will LOVE this final rare GLORY product WHEN it finally arrives to your doorstep.

December Factory Updates - Games and Components Complete!

We were holding our breath as the games were being made. I am happy to now announce Draconis Invasion updates from the factory. The pics and vids below were sent to me 1 week ago for approval of the final product. Rest assured that the game is finished and the quality is great! We are thankful for this factory for their great communication and updates.
As it is already December, we do not expect at all to make deliveries for December. Shipping in Asia "might" get games, but abroad it is more likely that early 2024 the boats will arrive and customs will clear the items.
Below we are sharing preview images and videos from the factory for Draconis Invasion.
We are sorry the games will not arrive before December 25, but I wish you a beautiful Christmas month! In Luke 2:10-11, we read:
10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
I sincerely hope that you have a happy Christmas this year, filled with great joy.

I am attaching images of the new playmats. The factory assured me that progress is good, but they just sent a photo of the playmats, we noticed a mistake on one of the designs for the Golem playmat. I will let you know the update on this after they reply.

Updated metallic painted Dragon tokens for GLORY expansion
Dear Warriors!
I have some updates and info on timeline delays. Last month (July) the game's eproofs were sent to us again. We were in the approval stage but the files were unfortunately not approved. The factory had misaligned several card designs. As mentioned in our last update, we are not on course for summer delivery. 😓
However... production has now begun! 🙌 The factory is printing the games and expects 6-8 weeks for completion. That puts all the games and shipments to leave China in October 2023.
Things are moving forward step-by-step. Thank you for your patience through this process. 🙏 I am confident that the final product, with the gameplay, components, and artwork, will be well-worth the wait.
