## Description
If you already enjoy the art of blazoning shields in the base game, get ready to supercharge your creations! The Blazon: Embellishments Promo Set offers a pack of promotional cards designed to add extra spice to your games. It includes 21 'Device' cards and 3 'Tincture' cards that can be mixed into the main deck, ensuring each shield has an even more unique and personalized look. Think of it as a makeup kit for your coats of arms, featuring new visual elements to make everything more stylish. Incorporating these cards is super simple: just shuffle them in, and you're good to go! Each new card brings a different detail, whether it's a new color (tincture) or a symbol/shape (device) to compose your shield. This expansion is perfect for those who want to vary their options a bit and boost replayability, creating combinations you might not have considered before. It's a cool way to keep the game fresh and surprise opponents with uncommon shield designs. Just remember that these promo cards weren't designed for the solo mode, so if you enjoy playing alone, you might want to save them for games with friends.
