Content Notes: Retail Edition of Cloudspire Miniatures Board Game Accessory Vol 2. by Chip Theory Games. Includes 12 miniatures – six miniatures for two new factions (Horizon’s Wrath and The Uprising). Requires core game (sold separately). This is an expansion of Cloudspire.
The second volume of the Cloudspire Miniature Expansion brings six minis for each of the Cloudspire: Ankar’s Plunder factions, the Horizon’s Wrath and The Uprising, in one not-so-miniature box! Colored individually for each faction, the miniatures provide a beautiful platform above the battlefield for your spire chips, while also making the board easier to read during your Cloudspire sessions. The spire miniatures each have space for up to five upgrade chips underneath, with any additional upgrades placed on top.
Note that this expansion is aesthetic in nature and does not provide any additional gameplay.
Cloudspire is 1-4 player strategy game heavily influenced by both tower defense and MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games. Solo and Cooperative play are driven by a scenario book that chronicles the story of the game from the perspective of each individual faction. Players control one of four unique factions in a battle to destroy and steal source energy from their opponents. Send and defend against armies and minions, build towers to protect your base, and explore with your heroes in search of resources and powerful Relics to turn the tide of battle.
Taking place in the floating realm of Ankar, Cloudspire tells the story of a war to acquire a powerful and rare energy known only as the source. Every race has their own unique units and heroes as well as the ability to bid and draft mercenaries for hire.
Armies are placed either individually or in stacks to conceal powerful units until the last possible moments. Heroes, in the meantime are controlled individually and may join the tide of battle or choose to explore points of interest in search of numerous resources. Meanwhile, the event deck regularly changes the terms of the fight, making every wave exciting and unpredictable.
As armies and minions approach opposing bases, they’ll need to contend with Spires – powerful defense towers that can be built around the board. Fight for control of build sites and acquire new spire schematics to build an impenetrable defense and hold off the enemy. Upgrade your home base to unlock new strategies and abilities. Level up your heroes and lead your armies into battle with advanced and upgraded skills!
