In battle, there are no equals. Unmatched is a highly asymmetrical miniature fighting game for two or four players. Each hero is represented by a unique deck designed to evoke their style and legend. Tactical movement and no-luck combat resolution create a unique play experience that rewards expertise, but just when you've mastered one set, new heroes arrive to provide all new match-ups. Battle of Legends, Volume Three features four disparate heroes: the pirate Blackbeard, the beastly Chupacabra, the trickster Loki, and the cursed and gifted Pandora. (Blackbeard, Chupacabra, and Loki are all runners-up from a deck-design contest.) Combat is resolved quickly by comparing attack and defense cards. However, each card's unique effects and a simple but deep timing system lead to interesting decisions each time. The game includes a double-sided board with two different battlefields (one of which is Santa's Workshop, which features a new map mechanism), pre-washed miniatures for each hero, and custom life trackers. As with every Unmatched set, these heroes can face off against fighters from other sets – even the villains in Unmatched Adventures.
