Reign Absolute: Umbrous Edition is the compact, streamlined version of the Ultimate Rapid Strategic Fantasy. Imagined as the love-child of fantasy tabeltop miniatures games and "explosive" party games, Reign Absolute: Umbrous Edition is about bringing the fun and excitement of competitive fantasy-themed conquest to an audience that would otherwise be put off by a grueling set of rules and complicated setup requirements.
The game is a grid based conquest game where each player has an unique set of Faction units, and the objective is to locate and defeat the opponent's Faction unit, at which point that player is eradicated from the game.
Players take alternating turns playing an Action followed by drawing a Reinforcement Card. Reinforcment Cards provide varying tactical benefits and supplement individual unit's combat strength. Aside from random draw of units during setup and the drawing of the Reinforcement Cards.
