Black Rose Wars: Rebirth is a highly competitive fantasy game of combat, strategy, and deck-building set in ancient Italy. It represents the second chapter in the Black Rose Wars series.
Despite 25 years passing after the Lodge was destroyed, Mages have not forgotten the Old Ways. The Black Rose calls to them. They return to the Lodge to repair and rebuild the glory of the Black Rose who still imbues every inch of the place, to hold their tournament to name the Crown Holder of the lodge for the following century. The Black Rose demands a champion.
Every player plays a Mage in the struggle to prove themselves as the true beholder of the Black Rose's power. Mages program spells to their board and execute them in turn order. The spells can disable other mages' spells, arm traps, arm powerful defensive moves, deal damage, or summon otherworldly beasts.
The battle proceeds on a hexagonal arena, demanding tactics and planning to perform the perfect move. Notably, when a mage finally succumbs to their wounds, they die and return to their room. This disrupts position and planning but ensures no mage is ever out of the fight!
Black Rose Wars: Rebirth is designed for 1-4 players, with more players paving the way for increased interaction. The expansions add an abundance of options for replayability. This game is a standalone game and also serves as an expansion for the original Black Rose Wars game.
