In Llama Llama, players pass cards to craft hands around the different scoring conditions. These conditions were chosen by the players secretly at the start of the round—you’ll have to try and guess at what others are going for to score big!

You may not have realized it – but the Heroscape team has not simply been adding figures & terrain to the world of Valhalla. They have also been adding tons of lore. We are now leaving the Age of Annhilation (what with the Wellspring storm unleashed by Valkyrie General Thormun) and entering a new age: the Secrets of the Citadel.
This means that Valkyrie generals have been forced into difficult partnerships:
The New Alliance – Jandar & Utgar
The Umbral Covenant – Vydar & Revna
The Clockwork Combine – Einar & Volarak
The Verdant Pact – Ullar & Aquilla
At RenegadeCon last Friday, the team shared the upcoming summer releases for this new era in the history of Valhalla. All of the new boxes feature these unfamiliar alliances. Additionally, we are getting to see the first glimpses of heroes with multiple classes. All of the heroes and squads in this wave are unique – meaning you’ll only need a single box of each to “complete” your set.

Play tricks to Trees, or play Apples to skip your turn, but be careful to not put yourself in a position where you cannot play cards or an Apple! Either play one or more cards to a tree as long as your play is higher than what is already there and gain a reward, or you can play an apple and skip your turn. If someone cannot take their turn, they lose!
