About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey everyone! For those who love expanding the Scythe universe, here's a neat little addition: the Promo Pack #6, featuring Encounter Card 37. This promotional card, which emerged from the 2017 Indiegogo campaign, introduces a new event to spice up your games.
The artwork depicts a pair of long-lost lovers reuniting in a field, with a man and a mech in the background – you can already feel the alternate history vibe that Scythe nails so well. The options the card presents are classic Scythe style: you can help the reunited lovers (gaining popularity), buy a plot of this fertile land (spending resources for food and oil – great for those needing a production boost), or even persuade a soldier to re-enlist (spending popularity to recruit more people).
It's the kind of content that doesn't drastically alter the game but adds freshness and another interesting decision point to the table. If you already own Scythe and enjoy adding these small touches that enrich the experience without overcomplicating things, this promo is for you. It's a quick and easy way to add an extra flavor to your favorite game, ensuring each playthrough has that dash of surprise and new strategic choices.
