          01Fighters

          Every portrait is a fighter.

          Its traits become four numbers: vigour, edge, guile and will. Its rarest trait becomes its special move. Type any number, minted or not, and meet the fighter inside it.

          Stats
          Vigour, edge, guile, will
          Special
          From the rarest trait it wears
          Drawn
          Full body and animated, from the published art
          How it works
          1. Every trait a piece wears adds to its stats. Rarer traits add more.
          2. The rarest trait decides its special move.
          3. Enlist it and it gets a full animated body, drawn from its own published art.
          Is this invented?No. Everything comes from the traits the collection has always had. The same piece is the same fighter for everyone.What does enlisting cost?5,000 $OMEN per fighter, up to three per household.
          02Moves

          Twenty-one ways to win.

          Glare halves a rival's next swings. Cleave hits the whole line. Haunt makes every guard bleed. Each move comes from a real trait, and each one has its own animation. Pick one and watch it.

          Aim, meters and counters in every fight
          03Raids

          Three go in.

          Pick a band of three and raid another estate on the island. Its guards fight back. Win, and you carry off part of what it has stored. Choose your three and see how your band measures up.

          Band
          Three fighters, more as your estate grows
          Prize
          A share of the estate's stores, and season points
          How it works
          1. Pick an estate on the island map.
          2. Send your band: every blow is a tap, with aim, meters and counters.
          3. Win and you steal from its stores. Every raid is saved and can be replayed.
          Is the band power the whole story?No. It is a fair guide, but moves, counters and good taps turn fights.
          04Defence

          Build it, then hold it.

          Your estate is a keep. Mine, store and build: walls, towers, a gate, a vault. Put guards on it. When someone raids you, the fight plays out, and it lands in your defence log, ready to replay.

          Build
          Keep, walls, towers, gate, mines
          Log
          Every raid on you, with a replay
          05Season

          The island keeps score.

          Every raid counts toward the season. The numbers here are live from the island right now: who is playing, how many raids have landed today, and whose keeps stand tallest.
