Designed to integrate with existing Root components, this expansion increases strategic variety and replayability by introducing asymmetrical interactions, additional scenarios and new forces to deploy during a session. The pack requires the Root base game to play and is aimed at players familiar with Root mechanics who want fresh tactical choices and expanded conflict dynamics.

Advantages

Components in the pack are designed to fit existing game flow and to provide new lines of strategic play for groups that already own the base game.
