Ashes Ascendancy is the next era of the expandable card game Ashes; a new entry point for the series and a continuation of Ashes Reborn. Fully compatible with all of Ashes Reborn, Ashes Ascendancy marks the introduction of two new magic types for Phoenixborn to wield, the same competitive card play you know and love, plus a new type of foe for players to take down in solo or co-op battles. Ashes is an expandable card game where players take on the role of Phoenixborn, demi-gods and protectors of the world of Argaia. -description from the publisher
