About the game
What you do in a play session
Meet the newest addition to the dragon family in Arena: The Contest! The Silver Dragon isn't just a giant miniature at 180mm of pure grandeur; it comes with its own exclusive quest and an epic boss fight. This expansion is designed to add extra spice to your main Tanares Adventures campaign without eating into your precious weekly game time. Get ready for a unique boss battle that can yield special rewards and test your strategic skills and luck. The miniature itself is already impressive, promising to surpass even our renowned Gold Dragon in magnificence. With mechanics involving dice rolling, grid movement, and a modular board, each game promises a new challenge. The expansion adds a layer of adventure and combat, perfect for those who already enjoy the Arena universe and crave more cooperative challenges. Despite being an expansion, it introduces elements that can be played independently or integrated into the main campaign, offering flexibility to players. The extensive translation requirement is something to note, but the experience it provides is well worth the effort for dedicated fans of the game.
