About the game

What you do in a play session

Prepare to dive headfirst into the Hundred Years' War with Time of Legends: Joan of Arc! This game isn't just about medieval battles; it's about the faith, superstition, and the supernatural that permeated that era. Imagine a setting where angels and demons are as real as the knights and kings fighting for the French throne. You and your friends will command historical factions or even mystical creatures, wielding an arsenal of incredible miniatures and 3D scenery that bring the battlefield to life. The gameplay is a sharp blend of resource management, strategic card play, and tactical board positioning. Every turn presents a dilemma: spend your precious action points now for a swift attack, or save them for a more elaborate move later? Will you level up your hero or invest in that crucial dice re-roll? The freedom of choice is immense, allowing you to explore, interrogate, fight, or pray, depending on your objectives and the situation. Each game is a unique adventure, with customizable scenarios, varied objectives, and win conditions that change with every play. From small investigative missions to epic battles with dozens of miniatures, Time of Legends: Joan of Arc offers an immersive experience full of twists and turns, where luck can be tamed with cunning and skill. It's a feast for those who enjoy games with miniatures, medieval themes, and a dash of dark fantasy.
