Title: Set Piece Battles (fast game mode)
Post by: piousflea on March 01, 2013, 11:01:28 PM
I got an interesting idea for a "faster" game variant based on a BGG thread. It would be really easy to set up a "Set Piece" game mode that behaves like a miniatures game, where both players battle with a fixed army.

Basically, both players would get a fixed amount of Mana (let's say, 50 Mana) to spend prior to the start of the game. They could use this Mana on creatures, conjurations, equipment, or save it in their bank.

At the start of the game, each player could place their Mage, creatures, conjurations and enchantments in their starting square, and/or the 2 adjacent squares.

Once the game begins, players are limited to casting Enchantments, Incantations, and Attacks. No additional creatures, conjurations or equipment may enter the game, except for cantrips and Resurrection.
