About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! Ready to juice up your Siege of the Citadel? This is the Dark Legion Bonus Pack, an expansion that brings that sweet 'stretch goal' vibe straight from Kickstarter. If you love having more options and a cool look for your game, check out what's coming your way!

This beauty adds a bunch of new tiles and awesome characters to make your games even more dynamic. We've got new map tiles that will change up the usual board, ensuring every showdown is unique. And for those who love heroes with special powers, the expansion brings incredible figures like the Cybertronic Hero – Attila III, the Mishima Hero – Yojimbo, and a whole crew of new folks to play with, such as the Metropolitan Prophets, Mercurian Maculator, Tekron, Defiled Avatar, and the Whitestar and Malignants factions. Oh, and let's not forget warriors like Golgotha, Karak the Keeper, Brotherhood Seeker Indigo, and even defense turrets!

The deal is that this expansion is designed for those who already enjoy the base game and want more variety, more strategic options, and, of course, more miniatures to make the table look cooler. If you were one of the lucky ones who backed the Kickstarter campaign, this pack is for you to make the most of the extra content. For newcomers, it can be a way to grab additional content that complements the original experience, adding more challenges and tactical choices. It's the kind of thing that makes the base game even more robust and interesting, especially if you're into the Mutant Chronicles universe and the cooperative vibe with dice rolling and variable powers.
