Multiplayer Rules

Special maps

are used for multiplayer battles.

Players will take turns assigning their Units to move and attack.

When moving a Unit to the castle gate in the middle of the map, the castle flags will change to the color of that Unit's team. Victory goes to the player whose team color is on the castle flags once the match is over, or to the player who completely wipes out the opposing team first.

The winner will acquire a Card that can only be used in multiplayer battles. Cards have various effects, and only one Card can be held by a team at once.

Before you battle against a registered Friend, you can enable mic chat during the match and talk to your opponent.

Rule Options

Turn on the Fog of War option for a more thrilling match, as your opponent's movement will be more difficult to keep track of.

When turning on Fog of War, you'll no longer be able to see an enemy Unit that is two spaces or farther away from your own Unit. Unseen enemies cannot be attacked, and when running into an unseen enemy while moving, your Unit will be stopped in its tracks and forced to wait for the next turn.

The amount of time allowed for each turn can be set by the host player to 3, 5, or 10 minutes. Once the time is up during your turn, it will automatically be your opponent's turn.
