Get ready to ramp up the warfare in Valeria! In 'Rise of Titans', the story takes a dark and epic turn: Lord Nore, the Lich King, has sacrificed his own essence to create the Shrine of the Titans. In practical terms, this means Wardens can now resurrect their most powerful warriors, bringing back the raw strength needed to crush the humans, elves, and dwarves who dared to seize their lands. But it's not just about brute force; the creation of the Shrine also unearthed ancient spells, allowing you to manipulate the tide of battle and shift your war status with magical tricks.

Furthermore, the Wraiths, who had been in a deep and apathetic slumber, have finally awakened. And they are not happy. Driven by a visceral desire for revenge for all the wrongs committed against monster-kin throughout the ages, they arrive to bolster your army. If you want to reclaim lost glory and become the supreme General of the Dark Army, this expansion is your path.

The game is organized modularly, which is fantastic because you don't have to implement everything at once. The expansion features four main modules: the Shrine of the Titans, Great Battles, Ancient Spells, and Wraith Dice. You can mix and match these modules as you please. The pro tip here is: if you've never played the base game, master the core rules first and then add one module at a time. Trying to throw everything in at once without knowing the rules might turn your session into total chaos (even if it's fun chaos).

This is the perfect addition for those seeking more strategic depth and more firepower for their monster hordes. Whether you want more tactical options or just more epic units on the board, Rise of Titans delivers the tools to dominate Valeria.
