With access to hero cards and support cards, players simultaneously send their heroes to the battlefield during two rounds and then help cards. There is only one rule in the battlefield, the winner is whoever is stronger at the end. Story "Finally, when the great battle has arrived, the Iranian and Turan armies have set up their tents and raised their shutters on the bank of the Jeyhoon river. There is an uproar. A cloud of dust covers the sun and the sound of sharpening swords reaches can be heard from all sides. All are eager to start a war. The agreement is that according to ancient customs, the warriors of both lands will fight face to face. But the strength of arms and the art of war are not their only helpers, and supernatural forces influence their efficiency from all corners, until the end of the battle is turned to one side every time, and now the history of this bloody war is in your hands..."
