About the Game

Deep within the fiery maw of an active volcano, two ancient mages wage a relentless duel for supreme dominance. In Form of War, players take on the roles of rival archmages who summon and reshape living clay into specialized combat units.

The game board is made of hexes. It has a Blue Team side and a Green Team side. In the middle, there is a red line. Neutral zone where no units can be placed at the start.

Use clay and the chest mold to create your warriors. Give each unit one of four classes by adding their weapon: The Magician, The Fighter, The Archer, or The Defensor.

You can also add siege machines to your army: a Catapult and a Ballista. The coolest part? These machines actually shoot! They fire real plastic stones and bolts at the enemy. You can see the damage right away: the projectiles leave real marks and dents on the clay. Protect your army with walls! Block path ways, stack walls higher, and shield your units from incoming shots. Track damage by sticking special markers into the clay or into the Stackable Walls.

You win the game by destroying all enemy infantry. Mages and siege machines do not count toward this victory condition.
