Description
--- "Kemet: Blood and Sand - Book of the Dead" expansion empowers gods with forbidden powers from the Book of the Dead, at the cost of unit sacrifices and prestige losses. Key mechanics include: - *Forbidden power tiles* Access to the most powerful tiles in the Kemet universe via the Book of the Dead. - *Unit sacrifices* Players must sacrifice units to feed the Beyond, gaining dark abilities like summoning Apophis or bending Thoth. - *Putrefaction penalty* Sacrifices cause sinking into putrefaction, losing prestige over opponents and victory points. - *High-risk conquest* Balances terrifying abilities against severe costs in epic battles among Egyptian gods for control of Kemet's black lands. In Kemet: Blood and Sand, gods of Ancient Egypt engage in epic battles using all tools, including the Book of the Dead expansion's forbidden knowledge from the Beyond. This grants access to the most powerful power tiles, but requires sacrificing units to fuel these darker, more dangerous powers. Consequences include descending into putrefaction, forfeiting prestige against rivals, and losing victory points—the steep price for summoning evils like the monstrous Apophis from the Underworld or commanding the knowledgeable Thoth. Players must weigh these formidable yet fearsome allies in their conquest of Kemet's black lands. ---
