About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey there, board game enthusiasts! If you're a fan of Mage Wars and always on the lookout for that extra spice to your epic battles, this promo card is for you! Released as a reward in organized play events and part of the 'Allegiance in Blood' story arc, 'Minor Heal' is a healing incantation costing 5 mana, capable of giving a boost to a target creature. The catch is that the healing amount is determined by rolling 5 attack dice – so sometimes you'll save the day with a generous heal, and other times it'll just be a minor patch-up. It's the kind of card that can turn the tide in a crucial moment, but with that dose of luck we love (or hate!) from dice rolls. Perfect for those who already master Mage Wars' rules and want to expand their tactical options with a touch of unpredictability. If you're looking for a way to surprise your opponent or give a crucial unit a second chance, this card might be the missing piece in your arsenal. Remember, it's a promotional card, so it can be a neat find for collectors and dedicated players who want all options available.
