ALIE: VALOR EDITION

Hello, Hal Laren here! Creator and artist of ALIE. And now I'm back with ALIE Valor Edition.

If you missed Alie the first time around, it's back with a fantastic expansion pack bursting with new tricks and more intrigue. Infect an opponent, build defences or send them to purgatory, and help keep your lies safe.

A word of caution: 20 new legends have also been added. These characters stand like titans on the battlefield with better strength and intriguing abilities. Do you rise to the coming changes, and do you have the skills to invade with Valor Edition.

Thank you for taking a moment to check out my project. I love creating comics; I really wanted to revisit my original card game and develop an existing expansion. I’ve self-published many of my own books, from B.Ex comics 1- 10 to my last successful Kickstarter Trojan Comic series, as well as my Blood Red  Raven series and Graphic Novel, as well as creating covers for many major publishers both in the  UK and the United States.  I wanted to add a new string to my bow, so I  thought I'd enhance my card game to be something even more interesting.

New hardened box with gold foil and black satin finish now to house Alie and the Valor Edition. Expansion pack as well as the additional 4 power dice.

Gameplay

ALIE, the definitive card game of truth and lies.

Challenge your friends to this character-based game of combat in a science fantasy setting. Who do you trust? Be cunning, be ruthless, show no mercy – as your adversaries won’t.

In this adventure of skill, chance, and bluff, manipulate your opponents to seize victory. But beware! If your deceit is uncovered, then you will lose everything. For there can only be one victor.

ALIE is an enhancement of the reverse Trumps game for 2-4 players,  battling against each other with the 40 unique Character cards, each having its very own special Ability. In a 2-player game, battle truth against lie with additional abilities and the injection of dice-enhanced point-based combat.

With 3 or 4 players, the possibilities increase. Learn whom to trust as you play to the weaknesses of your.   With such high stakes,  tell A LIE or ALLY with others. Outwit your opponents or trust that they will support your play.

Even the most skilled player can fail against the Eye of Truth. A  player may possess no more than 3 of these cards. They are your life, so unleash them wisely, as when they are gone you will be no more.

Dice with destiny! The simple power that resides within these cubes enables you not only to enhance the combat points you have been dealt but to wield the special Ability of your Character. 

In the Box: you will find the reworked original deck consisting of

•  40 character cards 
• 12 Eye of Truth cards 
• 4 dice. 

 As well as the Valor Edition deck consisting of.

•  20 new character cards 
• 10 Void cards
• 20 Relic cards
• 20 Fate cards

Below is a breakdown of each of their functions.

Charactor Cards

Character Cards: have simple rules. You are never allowed to see the back of your own cards except when challenging A LIE with an Eye of Truth card. There are forty character cards divided as best as possible between 2-4 players.

Abilities

Eye of Truth Cards

The Eye of Truth Cards: There are 12 of these in the pack, and each player is entitled to 3. These cards can only be used once in each round. When a player loses their last Eye of Truth card, it’s all over for them.

Purgatory: when active, adds to the gameplay. When cards are no longer taken by the victor but are held out of circulation until the gates of hell open to release them to the winning hand, this extra level of gameplay allows you to win back lost souls or use them as an extra line of defence. This is designed to be an army in reserve so you can purposely fill it with cards you want to use later or as a trap for your opponents, and only the power of the dice can save them.

Genre Marks: in the lower right corner of the cards, do more than just define the character but open up different effects and events specific to their genre. In this pack, there will be Dark Fantasy, Science Fiction and Horror, with more genres and packs to be launched in the future. You can also play games with one genre or multiple to make it more interesting or with the worlds that you prefer.

Mystic Cards: hold weapons, powers and abilities and work differently for different genre cards, like water to electricity, fire to wood. This is an extra line of defence or as an aid to your attacker. These cards are more of a burden if not wielded well, and are a great way of weakening your opponents.

Dice

There are two types of dice: white (defend) and black (attack)

Dice can both enhance your combat points and activate the unique Ability of the Character card you’re playing. 

Holding the Deck

Holding the deck is simple: Make sure you have your Eye of Truth cards at the back covering all queued cards, with the card in play tilted so an opponent can see its Character’s  Attributes and points.

As well as all the cards and dice comes this comprehensive Rulebook featuring all the information here as well as gameplay rules and breakdown in a handy booklet that fits inside the box and is larger than the original, with information on the traditional way to play as well as the enhanced version. 

The Unique Abilities of each Character card include some great game tweaks like Play two cards, Reshuffle the opponent’s pack, and more...
