Wild Assent - BGR "Extended Preview"

About Wild Assent, from BoardGameGeek:

Wild Assent is a miniatures board game with solo, player-versus-player, and cooperative modes. Battle your opponents in the gladiatorial arenas of the Silvestrem in Wild Assent's PvP skirmish mode. Hunt the dangerous creatures of the Wilds, by yourself or with friends, fighting not just for survival, but to keep your expedition running. Regardless of the mode you choose, Wild Assent offers strategic and varied combat, ensuring no two battles are the same. The Arena is a 2 or 4 player competitive game mode. Each player chooses an Assent, a customizable champion they will use to lead a troupe of Creatures into battle. The goal of the Arena is simple: kill or be killed. The Hunt is a solo or cooperative campaign mode requiring multiple game sessions to complete. The primary goal of the Hunt is to survive 10 seasons so the Seekers may retire with their wealth. If all the Seekers fall in battle at the same time, the expedition ends and the players lose. -description from the publisher
