About the game
If you're a fan of Gunkimono and looking to spice up your game, Gunkimono: Double Army Tiles is just the ticket! This expansion introduces 5 new double army tiles designed to shake up the battlefield. The twist is that during setup, you'll receive two large tiles instead of three, plus one of these secret double tiles. Each double tile features the same troop type on both halves, meaning they count as a single unit in your army. When it's time to play, you can use this double tile instead of a regular one, and here's the kicker: you can score both halves for honor, for victory, or split them as you see fit! Just keep in mind that this double tile counts towards your hand limit, so manage your hand wisely. It's an expansion that adds an extra layer of strategy and decision-making without overcomplicating the rules. Perfect for those who want more Gunkimono with an added tactical flair!
