- Do I need the campaign expansion to play Arcs?
- No. The base game is a complete standalone strategy game for 2 to 4 players. The campaign expansion adds a linked multi-session story on top of it.
- How many players does Arcs support?
- It is designed for 2 to 4 players. Conflict is direct, so more players means more negotiation and shifting alliances.
- How long does a game take?
- A single base game session runs a few hours depending on player count and familiarity. Campaign play spreads across several sessions.
- Is Arcs similar to other Leder Games titles?
- It shares the publisher and artist with Root and Oath, but the card-driven initiative and conflict system is its own design. Expect more direct fighting than Root's asymmetric factions.
- Is Arcs hard to learn?
- The core loop is teachable, but the initiative and card play take a game or two to click. It rewards repeated play more than one-off sessions.
- What is in the box?
- The base game includes the board, faction pieces, action and battle cards, dice and player aids. The campaign expansion is sold separately.
