About the game
What you do in a play session
The Pestilence Booster Pack delivers an epic upgrade for players familiar with the Heroes of Land, Air & Sea core. It arrives with a robust set of spell cards that broaden attack and defense options, creating new magic combinations that make the board even more unpredictable. Additionally, the pack includes protective sleeves for every card in the Pestilence expansion, keeping the deck organized and safe during combat. The big highlight? Two unique mercenary vessels, each with distinct abilities that introduce new maritime tactics not found in the base game. If you enjoy exploring fresh combat strategies and crave more unit variety, this booster elevates the strategic depth. Keep in mind, the cards are in English, so you'll need a translated spreadsheet or pre‑translated cards to fully enjoy them. The pack doesn’t replace the original expansion but complements it perfectly, adding more spells, units, and a richer experience for those already immersed in the Pestilence world.
