## Description
Dragon Tides is a nostalgic trip back to classic action movies and fighting video games, with a martial arts twist that will keep you glued to the table! Think of something like Double Dragon or Streets of Rage, but with an extra layer of strategy and narrative.

In this cooperative (or semi-cooperative, if one of you decides to turn villain!) adventure, you'll control iconic heroes like Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee, fighting against the sinister Tiger organization. The story unfolds non-linearly, with your choices and the outcome of each scene shaping the path forward. Each character has their own signature moves and attack cards, adding a personal touch to the battles.

The game uses an action point system and custom dice rolls to give that authentic martial arts feel. Managing your hand of cards, positioning your heroes on a modular hex board, and building your skill deck are crucial for taking down the Tiger. Plus, there are super-detailed character miniatures to make everything even cooler!

It's an experience that blends the excitement of combat with the depth of an engaging story, perfect for those who enjoy action-themed games with a good dose of strategy. Get ready to relive the most fun clichés of action cinema!
