Description

--- **Grond** promo tile enhances setup and provides dominant regional control by displacing enemy forces. Key mechanics include: - *Setup integration* After revealing 3 Landmark tiles, shuffle Grond into remaining tiles to form a facedown stack. - *Fortress removal* Select any region and remove 1 enemy Fortress. - *Enemy retreat* Present enemy Units retreat to a single adjacent region; resolve triggered conflicts normally. - *Own placement* Place 1 Fortress and 1 Unit in the targeted region. The Grond promo, available for early buy-in store purchase, introduces a powerful Landmark tile integrated into game setup by shuffling it with remaining Landmark tiles after the initial 3 reveals, forming a facedown stack for potential draw. Upon activation, it targets any region to remove 1 enemy Fortress; if enemy Units occupy it, they must retreat to one adjacent region, with any resulting conflict resolved per standard rules. It concludes by placing 1 Fortress and 1 Unit controlled by the activating player, enabling aggressive territorial conquest and enemy disruption in a single potent action. ---
