Gameplay: 2 Phases, 2 Modes
Legions of the Fae: Unite! — The Cooperative Game
Phase 1: Divination
You arrange Fae & Dragons, recruit aides, and select the hallowed units who will seize the 6 hallowed citadels and secure the Shards of Gaia for Titania’s crown. Take turns choosing which unit everyone will draw on their maps, coordinating with other players to divine hallowed units, and recruit aides to earn rule-bending abilities. The phase succeeds when all six hallowed units have been divined. You fail if everyone passes before you complete this goal.
Phase 2: Ascension
You open portals to Gaia (Earth) and send Titania’s units into the field, using your hallowed units to seize the hallowed citadels. Take turns selecting missions to launch and shading in areas on your map that meet the mission requirements; meanwhile, the other players fill in similar areas on their maps. After you launch each mission, you can also send your hallowed units to capture the hallowed citadels. If you capture all six citadels, you restore Titania’s crown, she ascends the throne of Gaia, and you win
Titania’s Favorite Advisor — The Competitive, Solo/ All v. All Game
In this mode, you will play by yourself, choosing all six hallowed units and delivering them on your own. You’ll have to manage Titania’s units carefully and use your aides judiciously, as you will have a lot fewer boons. You can also use this mode for a competitive “all vs. all” game, which allows for faster play or for groups larger than six to play together.
