The great war for Aughmoore rages on and needs heroes like you! Whether you are new to Heroes of Land, Air & Sea or a seasoned warlord, welcome. Through this project, you can pledge for all the spoils of the critically acclaimed Heroes of Land, Air & Sea or you can fill in your current collection with the anything you're missing.
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea is an immersive and strategic 4X-style board game that transports players into a world of epic battles between orcs and humans, dwarves and elves, and warring kingdoms. With beautifully crafted miniatures, this game brings to life the thrilling tale of heroes who shape the course of war.
In this game, players take on the role of one of these iconic factions, vying to expand their kingdom and conquer new territories. Every great kingdom starts small, and players begin their journey with just a humble town hall, a handful of serfs, and a lone warrior. From this modest beginning, players must venture out, explore the surrounding lands, strengthen their workforce, build a formidable army, and develop their kingdom. This requires careful decision-making, resource management, and strategic warfare.
As players progress and achieve milestones in their kingdom's development, they unlock a multitude of advantages. Serfs evolve into mighty warriors, warriors ascend to become powerful heroes, and town halls transform into majestic castles. Players also gain access to water vessels and air vessels, as well as mythical creatures. By boarding these vessels and creatures with their units, players can traverse the expansive game board more swiftly and position their armies for devastating attacks.
Warfare in Heroes of Land, Air & Sea employs a meticulously designed cost/reward system, outlined on tactics cards that players must secretly select. The availability of these tactics cards depends on the units involved in the conflict. It is during these intense battles that players must showcase their strategic prowess and fight for victory, knowing that history is written by the victors.
Furthermore, Heroes of Land, Air & Sea features two distinct economic systems. The first involves the risky acquisition and careful management of vital resources such as food, ore, and mana. The second system introduces a unique twist on worker placement, where players must strategically allocate their serfs to construct buildings. However, it’s important to note that these serfs could also be utilized for exploration, expansion, exploitation, or even extermination! Achieving the perfect equilibrium between these two systems is absolutely pivotal for securing victory in this thrilling game.

Game Contents
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea Core Game
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea: Order and Chaos
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea: Pestilence
The Floating Continent is the starting island for the Birdfolk and is accessible via ferry routes and air vessels.
The Sunken Continent is the starting island for the Merfolk and can be placed over any island. It is seeded with water exploration tokens instead of land tokens, but remains traversable only by land units and air units, like other islands.
Both the Floating Continent and the Sunken Continent are usable with any player count.
Gameplay Overview
Heroes of Land, Air & Sea is an exhilarating board game that takes inspiration from the concepts of eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate, commonly known as 4X style games. This game ingeniously brings the immersive experience of Real Time Strategy (RTS) games to the tabletop, creating a unique and captivating gaming experience.
With an average duration of 30 to 45 minutes per player, Heroes of Land, Air & Sea offers a flexible gameplay that can accommodate a wide range of players, from 1 to 7, thanks to its expansion options. This means that whether you're playing alone or with a group of friends, this game has something for everyone.
One of the standout features of Heroes of Land, Air & Sea is its diverse set of rules, designed to cater to various play styles. Whether you prefer a free-for-all battle, a thrilling 2 vs. 2 showdown, an epic 2 vs. 2 vs. 2 clash, a strategic 3 vs. 3 encounter, or even a solo adventure, this game has got you covered. The possibilities are endless, ensuring that each game is a unique and exciting experience.
In Heroes of Land, Air & Sea, players will select a faction from a wide array of options found in both the core game and its available expansions. They will then embark on a thrilling journey to evolve and expand their chosen faction over a series of rounds. This process involves various developments, such as expanding their workforce and military might, the construction of strategically significant buildings and towers, the recruitment of heroes to spearhead their forces, acquiring sea and air vessels for mobility, and the ambitious expansion of their influence to cover every corner of the map.
During the course of the game, players will engage in epic battles, compete for territorial dominance, unleash formidable spells, and tactically oversee their resource management. Besides managing a resource-based economy, the game introduces an action economy that demands players strike a balance between allocating their serfs to construction, resource gathering, and choosing the necessary actions for advancing in the game.
The game concludes after a single round once one of the four end game conditions are met. These conditions, referred to as the 4Xs, are the following:
1. eXplore - All land exploration tokens have been revealed.
2. eXpand - All the serfs and warriors of a single player are in play.
3. eXploit - All 3 towers of a single player are in play.
4. eXterminate - A player's capital city has been destroyed.
The player who accumulates the most victory points emerges as the winner. These points can be earned through various means, including advancing your capital city to its final level, winning or even losing battles, gaining and maintaining control over regions, and units in play at the game's conclusion.
The Factions of Heroes of Land, Air & Sea
Mercenaries, Siege Engines and more!
Mercenary Mini Expansions
Enhancing your gameplay experience, the Mercenary Mini Expansions introduce a wide array of Heroes available for recruitment. Expand your roster of Heroes and unleash their unparalleled power alongside your faction's regular Heroes. With their exceptional skills and capabilities, Mercenary Heroes stand out as some of the most powerful characters in the game.
Nomads Mini Expansion
The Nomads Mini Expansion offers players two exciting play modes: utilizing the Nomads as Mercenaries or as NPCs (non-player characters).
When used as Mercenaries, players have the opportunity to recruit three Nomads to bolster their army. These Nomads function similarly to enhanced Serfs, unable to construct but capable of following/mustering actions and collecting additional resources. Moreover, they possess the unique ability to diminish the resource collection of opponents in adjacent regions, providing a strategic advantage. Additionally, they offer a late-game boost to exploration. It is crucial to preserve their numbers, as their strength is contingent upon how many are in play.
Alternatively, when employed as NPCs, the Nomads cannot be controlled by a single player for an extended period. At the commencement of each round, one Nomad is added by the player who initiated the round. The regions neighboring the Nomads experience a reduction in resource production by one. If left unchecked, the Nomads can significantly impede the progress of nearby players. Furthermore, the more Nomads in play, the more challenging they become to defeat. However, vanquishing a Nomad allows a player to capture them and utilize them to follow/muster a single future action before returning them to the supply.
Moreover, the Nomads Mini Expansion introduces six new spell cards. These spells empower players to manipulate the Nomads for their own benefit, either by forming alliances with them or provoking their wrath.
Siege Engines Mini Expansion
The Siege Engines Mini Expansion showcases six formidable siege constructs. Similar to Mercenaries, these units can be recruited by any player without any prerequisites. They possess distinctive abilities that are specifically tailored to provide you with a strategic advantage in various types of battles. For example, the Ballistae excel in ranged attacks and prove to be formidable against Heroes and Air Vessels. On the other hand, the Catapults also possess ranged attack capabilities and are specifically designed to demolish towers and sea vessels. Lastly, the Siege Towers are solely dedicated to obliterating Capital Cities, making them an unstoppable force in a castle siege!
Pestilence Booster Pack
The Pestilence Booster Pack offers the necessary additional card sleeves to protect the extra cards included in the Pestilence Expansion. Moreover, it introduces 14 captivating new Spell Cards and 2 unique Vessels to enhance your gaming experience.
The Dragonscale Yacht is an exciting addition to the Mercenary lineup, exclusively available in the Pestilence Booster Pack.
Please note that the two Vessel Stands required for the Dragonscale Yachts are included in the Pestilence Expansion box, and not in the Pestilence Booster Pack. These stands are identical to the ones provided in the Base Game and the Order & Chaos Expansion.
