Description

"The Red Dragon Inn: Allies - Brother Bastian" is a character expansion adding a strategic paladin with versatile prayer cards, emphasizing sacrifice and unpredictability. Key mechanics include: - *Powerful prayers* Bastian wields numerous potent prayer cards, used with precise timing for maximum effect. - *Strategic sacrifices* Players sacrifice resources throughout the game to deploy prayers at critical moments for victory. - *Unpredictability* Abundance of prayers creates uncertainty about Bastian's next move, adding tactical depth. - *Character integration* Includes a full Character Deck and components to expand any standalone Red Dragon Inn game. Brother Bastian, a devotee of Korash the god of justice and light from a severe sect, evolves upon encountering a genuine orc paladin, revealing deeper aspects of his faith. This Allies expansion for The Red Dragon Inn introduces him as a humble yet secretive servant, armed with flexible prayer cards that demand sacrificial play for optimal use. "The Good" highlights his mastery of powerful prayers and timing; "The Bad" notes the challenge of anticipating his plans due to their variety. Part of the Allies series, each set adds a single new character via a dedicated deck and components, enhancing party dynamics in standalone games.
