The Rules

A poker hand scoring against the Dark Moon's encounter
I · Your Hand

Poker hands are combat

Strikes set the score and Wyrd multiplies it. Pairs, straights, flushes, full houses. Attack. Multiply your points with your heroic powers. Win.

Three Dark Moon curses to choose from: Corruption, The Scream and Storm Daemon
II · The Enemy

The Dark Moon is always rising

The Dark Moon powers the forces of evil and chaos. Every turn, you roll a hundred-sided die and the Dark Moon score gets closer. When you cross the threshold, three curses rise. Choose the one your heroes can survive best. Pick wrong, and your next hand will be your last.
