AracKhan Wars: The Song of Destiny

From BoardGameGeek:

In AracKhan Wars, players lead a powerful faction and its heroes, represented by a compact 23-card deck, and face off against opponents on the battlefields of AracKhan. Its unique gameplay blends bluffing, with cards played face-down each round, and area control, where cards primarily interact with adjacent ones. The system is simple and intuitive. The Song of Destiny is a stand alone game and does not require any of AracKhan Wars modules to be played. The players select an adventure to play, which provides the narrative background, a specific ruleset, objectives, & victory condition(s). Each player then choose a 23 card faction deck, using a pre-built deck or constructing their own deck, according to rules, advice, & deck-lists provided. The game lasts 9 rounds (8 rounds in 2v2), and each player starts the game with a hand of 7 cards (9 in 2v2). The Song of Destiny consists of the Prologue/Core box, the Song of Destiny II (4 new factions), the Song of Destiny III (4 new factions), and some accessories. -description from the publisher
