Anachronism CCG -- Set 1 Standalone

I've left this standalone set apart from the main collection for those who want to take a look at the game without the fuss of worrying about the full collection of more complex cards that were released as the game went on. Use this mod to learn and explore the game, then expand to the full set once you're ready!

Anachronism is a tabletop game with aspects of both miniatures and collectible card genres. Made by Tri-King Games and The History Channel and first published in 2005, Anachronism has two players pit historical warriors against each other while mixing and matching in cards from many cultures representing the armor, weapons, inspirations, and other facets of those cultures. These cards can be used to attack the opposing warrior, defend yourself, or give yourself other interesting advantages in the fight. The seventh and last official set was published in 2007, with the text of two more unreleased 'official' sets released to public after the game's discontinuation.

Each game takes about 10-15 minutes to play, taking place over 4 to 5 rounds of combat or until one hero is defeated and the game ends. With a simple 5-card deck structure you can freely experiement with different deck ideas by taking interesting cards from other hero's player packs to use in your deck, even across different cultures. The game is usually played with 2 players, but can easily be played in free-for-all or team multiplayer formats with more players.
