Architects of the Grid

Architects of the Grid is a tactical card battler where the fight is won before it starts. Draft a squad of proxies onto a 3x2 grid, spend your energy wisely, lock in, and watch the battle play out. Every match is fully deterministic: no dice, no luck of the draw, just your plan against theirs. FOUR FACTIONS, ONE GRID • The Cogwork Union: riveted plate, magnetic pull and long guns that hold the line. • The Aetherium Cabal: crystal constructs whose beams ignore armour. • The Verdant Splicers: hide that regrows, venom that keeps working. • The Scavengers: decoys, plate-strippers and cutters for hire. CHOOSE YOUR ARCHITECT Seven Architects, each with a passive and a once-per-match override that can turn a round. Pair one with the right cards and your squad becomes more than its parts. READ THE GRID Daily anomalies bend the rules of every arena, from reversed turn order to shifting ground. Position, speed and targeting decide who stands at the end of twenty rounds. MODES • Rank: rated matches against other Architects to climb the ladder. • Classic: casual matches against other Architects. • Practice against IRON-MIND, the house engine, at three difficulty levels. • Custom: set the energy cap and anomalies yourself. COLLECT Open sealed packs to pull numbered copies of every card, each with its own border and serial. Field your favourites in the Armory, bind them into your Codex, and apply alternate card art.
