About the game
What you do in a play session
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea: Pestilence Booster Pack brings the Pestilence universe to 7 players, thanks to a set of expansion components and two new factions, the Birdfolk and the Merfolk. The pack features a floating continent, supported by transparent plastic stands, and a sunken continent, created by laying a blue sheet over an existing island. It also includes 20 new spell cards, 24 exploration tokens, and extra components for a seventh player. The design retains the core feel of the base game while offering fresh strategies, resources, and challenges. The expansion also adds more spell cards, sleeves for all Pestilence expansion cards, and two unique mercenary ships. Language dependency is moderate, requiring a translated spreadsheet or translated cards. Players engage in worker placement, area majority/influence, variable player powers, action points, Take That, card‑based conflict resolution, and follow‑action mechanics. The 4X, expansion or supplement, wargame, miniatures, adventure, fantasy, war, martial arts, and medieval themes intertwine to create an epic strategy and adventure experience.
