About the game
What you do in a play session
If you are the type of player who loves having a strategic edge or simply cannot resist an exclusive collectible, the After the Empire: Tower Walls Promo Card is a must-have for your collection. To be clear, this isn't a standalone game, but rather a special component that originated during the Dice Tower 2021 Kickstarter campaign, specifically as part of the highly sought-after Pack C.
So, what does this card actually do during gameplay? Well, if you find yourself navigating the dangers of the After the Empire universe, knowing you can mitigate incoming damage is often the thin line between glory and total defeat. This promotional card provides a crucial defensive boost: it allows you to take one less damage point when hit by archery attacks. In a game where every single hit point matters and resource management is a matter of survival, having this little extra 'shield' can completely shift the momentum of an intense session.
Keep in mind that this is a supplement item. It was designed to be integrated into the core After the Empire experience, adding a layer of customization and a new tactical variable for those who have already mastered the game's worker placement and economic mechanics. Whether you were part of the original campaign or managed to track this treasure down elsewhere, get ready to play with a bit more confidence against enemy archers. It is exactly the kind of detail that strategic-minded players will love to have in their arsenal during the most high-stakes moments of the game!
