BATTALIA: The Creation is a competitive, fast-paced, strategic deck builder that combines map construction, hero and area control, and unique calendar mechanisms.
In BATTALIA: The Stormgates expansion, the players get the following additional functionality:
Game material for 2 new players, so the game can be played by up to 6 players.
Cooperative Teamplay, which is conducted simultaneously among the team members. The game evolves from strictly competitive to partially cooperative and at the same time from individually turn-based to semi-simultaneous. This new mechanics allows people to build alliances and to experience new strategies, while saving time compared to the standard game duration.The basic mode for 6 players will be 3 teams x 2 players each, or experimental for now 2 teams x 3 players each.
The Stormgates allow for easier movement on the bigger map and will add some unpredicted event-bonuses to the players who use them.
The new Kings & Queens mechanics will add more power to your deck and is an alternative strategy against the so called "super-slim decks". The new cards will allow you also to build higher level cities - one level 6 capital and two level 5 residences (one summer and one winter residence per player).
