Smash Up: The Obligatory Cthulhu Set (ENG) - Cardgame:

Smash Up: The Obligatory Cthulhu Set is an expansion for the popular card game Smash Up, bringing the Lovecraftian theme to the game with new factions and unique mechanics. This set adds an extra layer of complexity and strategic depth that fans of both Smash Up and Cthulhu will appreciate.

Key Features:

• New Factions: This set includes four unique factions inspired by the Cthulhu Mythos: Minions of Cthulhu, Elder Things, Innsmouth, and Miskatonic University. Each faction has specific powers and gameplay mechanics, such as spreading Madness cards or enhancing other characters.
• Madness Mechanic: This expansion introduces Madness cards, a new card type that offers both benefits and drawbacks. Madness cards can draw extra cards or be returned to the Madness deck, but they also reduce the final score by 1 victory point (VP) for every two Madness cards in your possession.
• Gameplay Mechanics: Players choose two different factions and combine their cards into a single deck. The goal is to conquer bases by using the combined strength of characters and actions on those bases. When the total power exceeds the base's break point, it scores, and players earn victory points.
• Interaction and Strategy: Player interaction is intense, as cards often affect opponents' positions and actions. Players must strategically plan and combine the powers of their chosen factions to break bases and score points.
• Components: The set includes high-quality cards, including the new Madness cards, and eight new bases themed around the Lovecraftian factions.
