The Great Wall: Black Powder · 2021 · Awaken Realms
Towers & War Machines
Employ crafty engineers to build ingenious, death-bringing machines, and to raise towers with slots for them!
Each player will be able to build towers (they are located between Wall Sections) and place chosen war machines onto them. There are three variants of War Machines: cannons, rocket batteries, and powerful siege crossbows.
Not only you will be able to use them in the game, greatly enhancing your defense potential, but also, each player will get a few upgrade cards to choose from, giving further variation and replay possibilities to the War Machines. For example, one player might favor building cannons, but they want them to be as cheap as possible, while another might concentrate on a single but very powerful one.
Additional Horde types & Siege Engines
Mongols have brought some siege engines with them! Some of the Hordes cards will come with the special engines to try and break your walls. Defend yourself against battering rams, which will break your walls, catapults, which will strike your archers, and Hordes with siege towers, which will change the way you plan your defense. They will try and counteract your towers, employing miners to tear them down.
