About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're a fan of Blood Rage and looking to spice up your Viking battles, the Mystics of Midgard expansion is right up your alley! This gem introduces Mystics, super special units that are neither warriors nor monsters, but warrior-shamans wielding powers straight from the gods. To recruit these folks, you'll first need to upgrade your clan with the Mystic Clan Upgrades. Each of these upgrades grants you a brand-new Mystic figure in your reserve, ready to invade and wreak havoc. And the best part? These shamans enter the fray without costing any Rage points! They all have Strength 2 and a special ability allowing them to invade at no cost. But the magic doesn't stop there: each clan upgrade also bestows a unique ability upon your Mystics. If you collect several different upgrades, your Mystics will accumulate all these abilities, turning them into incredibly versatile and strategic war machines. Just remember, each clan can only recruit a maximum of 2 Mystics. Get ready to unleash mystical fury and dominate Midgard like never before!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Do I need the base Blood Rage game to play with Mystics of Midgard?
Absolutely! This expansion adds content to the base game, so you need it to use the Mystics.
How many Mystics can I have in my clan?
Each clan can recruit a maximum of 2 Mystics during the game. They are powerful units, so the limit makes sense!
Are Mystics considered warriors or monsters?
Neither! They are a special unit category, warrior-shamans, with their own rules and abilities.
Does invading with a Mystic cost Rage?
The best part! All Mystics have the ability to invade without spending any Rage points, which is a huge tactical advantage.
How do Mystics gain special abilities?
Each Mystic Clan Upgrade you acquire for your clan grants a special ability to your Mystics. The more upgrades, the more abilities they accumulate!
Does this expansion significantly change the rules of Blood Rage?
It adds a new strategic layer with the Mystics and their upgrades, but the core gameplay remains the same. It's a great way to add extra flavor without overcomplicating things.
