About Gudnak
Gudnak (the Orcish word for "War") is a tactical expandable card game with easy-to-learn rules and deep tactics. It's played on a 3x3 grid with 2 players, or a 5x5 grid with 4 players. Gudnak is a fast-paced game with symmetrical deckbuilding, meaning each player has the same number of tactics and fighters (with the same power, even!). And, unlike some other Magical games that require Gathering, you get to use every card in your deck every game. Choose a faction, build your deck of Heroes and Tactics, and then besiege your opponent's Stronghold while defending your own! This project contains the Core set (featuring four factions) and the first two expansions: the Auroxi and the Rotborn. Each expansion introduces a new faction, a new card type, and dozens of neutral- and faction-specific cards.
