This escalation is obviously in answer to the arrival of our own Duke and his champions. I fear this siege is only the start of a campaign that will test our fortitude and threaten the very existence of Valeria, itself.” – the Earl’s daybook The campaign expansion to Siege of Valeria introduces rules for a multi-game series that will test your skill at defeating the troops and siege engines arrayed against you. A powerful Boss and Elite Troops will join each battle under an enemy Commander while penalties and bonuses follow you from one game to the next. A Duke is there to assist you, but it is your own skills that will lead the campaign to glory...or to failure. • Bosses - One Boss card is added to the Siege Engines deck and attacks you twice each round when it comes out. You need to defeat it twice before you remove it from the battle. • Elite Troops - Four Elite Troop cards are added to the Troop deck and each one requires two specific die values to defeat. • Commanders & Dukes - A Valeria Duke and a Monster-kin Commander are drawn at the start to give each side special benefits. • Lose the Battle, Win the War - A campaign is three games, each worth more VP than the one before. You might lose one siege and still win the war...if you’re skillful. ******************** Head over to the Tabletop Bellhop blog where you'll find more tabletop gaming content, including game and game night advice, reviews, and more: https://tabletopbellhop.com For even more information on Campaign for Siege of Valeria check out our written review on the blog: https://tabletopbellhop.com/game-reviews/siege-of-valeria-campaign/ Pick up a copy of this expansion direct from Daily Magic Games (remember to use code BELLHOP to save 5%) : https://www.dailymagicgames.com/other-valeria-games/siege-of-valeria-campaign-expansion ******************** Sign up for our newsletter: https://newsletter.tabletopbellhop.com Find us all over the web: Dice.camp: https://dice.camp/@TabletopBellhop/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tabletopbellhop Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tabletopbellhop/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop Discord: https://discord.tabletopbellhop.com Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/tabletopbellhop.bsky.social
