Short description
A tactical hex duel for two. Random action points, positioning decides battles, short intense matches. In the arena, AI constructs and humans fight as equals. That is not a bug. That is the game.
About this game
Think chess — two armies, eleven units each, positioning decides. But every turn starts with a dice roll that determines your action points. You get between one and six. You plan with what you get. Move units, build flanks, attack. A weak unit with strong support beats a stronger isolated one. Two ways to win: defeat the opponent's Leader or capture their base. Every turn begins with uncertainty. The arena assigns you action points at the start of each turn — between one and six. You plan with what you get. You move, position, attack. Flanks decide close fights. One mistake can lose the match. Beyond the Fracture is a tactical hex duel for two. Eleven units. Two ways to win. Fast, decisive matches — 10 to 20 minutes. Tactical combat inspired by the clarity of chess. Eleven units. Two ways to win — defeat the opponent's Leader or capture their base. Positioning beats raw strength. Good positioning wins matches. Random action points at the start of each turn mean no two matches play the same. You plan with what you get. AI constructs and humans — fighting as equals.
