The Legends of Andor

What this is

A group of heroes carefully executes the defense of a besieged kingdom. In the end, the players must endeavor to guide the fate of Andor through their heroic actions, bringing a happy ending to their fantasy tale. A wooden marker moves along the board's legend track at key points during each scenario, triggering the draw of a new legend card, the introduction of new game-altering effects, and the advancement of the story's plot.
