Manual — Star Realms: Command Deck – The Alignment

Alignment Command Deck
Rules (Part 1 of 3)

When playing with the Alignment Command Deck, you are Divine
Admiral Le, legendary commander of the Alignment. While you will be
able to acquire and play cards of any faction, your starting deck and
gambits work particularly well with and cards.

This Command Deck may be played one-on-one against any other
Command Deck, or, you can use it to take on two players playing
standard starting decks!

2 vs 1
When playing against two players, those players use standard
starting decks (eight Scout and two Viper cards). They play as a
Hydra team with a total of 75 Hydra teams share a turn, may
share trade and combat, but have separate decks and ally triggers
(see Star Realms Rulebook, Formats section).

Setup
At the start of the game, place your Divine Admiral Le card, along
with your Alignment Ingenuity and Le's foray gambit cards, face up,
front of you.

Note: Your Divine Admiral Le card is for reference, and does not count
as a or card in play for triggering Ally Abilities.
