Don’t forget about the fan developed items out there though, they are still creating wonderful options! Face off against automated factions from the base game either competitively or co-op. Manufacturer: Leder Games. Categories: Expansion and Wargame. Game Mechanics: Action Queue, Area Majority / Influence, Dice Rolling, Hand Management, Point to Point Movement, Solo / Solitaire Game, and Variable Player Powers.

Mechanical Marquise 2.0 – Dodge her marauding patrols as you try to stop her from completing her building tracks.
Electric Eyrie: Shore up the Woodland’s defenses against this fearsome invader. If they go unchallenged, the Woodland will soon be flooded with their forces.
Automated Alliance – Police these radicals and raze their bases before a little uprising turns into a massive rebellion.
Vagabot – Hunt the dastardly Vagabot across the many clearings of the game or attempt to court him with items.
