About the game
What you do in a play session
If you love epic battles and roaring fire dragons, the Great Dragon Reinforcement Pack is the missing expansion for your arsenal. It brings a colossal dragon that can be recruited into any army, ready to guard treasure or unleash a storm of flames on anyone who dares approach. In addition to the dragon, the expansion provides three brand‑new lore cards that customize your lore deck, plus a unique terrain tile that opens up fresh tactical possibilities. For those who enjoy scenarios, the pack comes with a pre‑built scenario called "Into the Fire," where both armies start on opposite sides of the battlefield and must be the first to dominate the dragon to claim its hoard. The game remains faithful to BattleLore (Second Edition) rules, with dice rolling, grid movement, and modular board that ensures each game feels different. The Great Dragon not only adds a high‑level unit but also ramps up strategic tension, as the dragon can be used in combat or as the scenario’s final objective. If you already own the base game, simply open the pack and follow the quick instructions—no extra complicated rules needed. In short, the pack delivers more content, more challenge, and, of course, a dragon that will make your opponent tremble in fear.
