## Description
Micro Hero: Achilles is a solo card game where the legendary Greek hero becomes a demanding coach of an Olympic team. Instead of fighting, you manage athletes, optimizing their training and positioning to build the most efficient cycle. With your entire deck in hand, every decision about resource allocation and skill development directly impacts the outcome. The core mechanic is deck order: today's actions influence how cards reappear in future cycles, requiring careful planning. You face challenges (Trials) that guide your strategy and reward efficiency. After four training cycles, scoring depends on athletes' levels, their deck position, and the coach's final state. The game combines hand management, deck building, and resource mechanics to create an optimized training system. Perfect for strategy enthusiasts who enjoy mechanical depth and mythological themes. Moderate complexity and planning dependency make it better suited for experienced players or those seeking a mental challenge. Components are simple, focusing on cards and tokens, with no physical table needed. Moderate language dependency may require translated cards or sheets, but mechanics are accessible once understood.
