Honour or Infamy,

magic and skills,

Many Years Ago... dungeon-crawls and
After the Green Tides of the Orc came to these shores, And the
open skirmishes,
Ruling Kings of Mei-Lan abandoned their Cities to return across parties of heroes
the Eternal Seas... or evil overlords
There was an Age of Chaos and Uncertainty. The Lands and of undead and
Kingdoms lay waiting for someone New to Rule. Unto this Age daemonic hordes.
came a new Breed of Adventurer,
Heroes and Villains, Brave and Terrible to behold - Seeking Fame
and Fortune, Power and Infamy.
Warrior, Thief, Dark Sorceror, Monstrous Lord, Cruel Raider,
Brave Knight - All Alike!
Many were the battles they fought with and against each
another, Heroic deeds were accomplished - Terrible crimes were
committed. In time some of them would come to Rule these
Lands, Whether it be through the Acclaim and Support of the
people, Or through Fear and Violence visited upon the subjugated
These Adventurers would come to be LEGENDS …and we
remember their feats to this day.

Build your Legend -
whether it’s one to be admired... or feared.

Card-Based Combat with
a simple deck of normal
cards.
Based on the Tribal skirmish combat
rules. Get up close and personal in the
cut n thrust of combat. Black suits to
attack, Red suits to defend.
Throw down spades to stab and slash,
clubs to pummel and bash.
Use your diamonds to feint, and hearts
to dodge.
A simple system to learn quickly, a
hard system to match yourself against
a veteran – but the random cards
always help!
Also Use Playing Cards for:
• activating units and champions
• movement (long edge of card for
running; short edge for walking/
terrain modifiers)
• measurement (ranges, unit
coherency)
• combo-building for MAGIC
casting and special abilities

Beyond Good & Evil –
Honour & Infamy
The focus of Legend is not about
capturing objectives or killing your
opponents. Sure, that is always an
important part of obtaining glory in a
world of dangerous enemies and dark
dungeons. However, we believe it is
not what is achieved in a battle that is
important – it is what is remembered
and what is said about you later that is
of greater significance. It is up to the
player, and what they do during the
battle, to enhance their Honour.
Your Honour is a reflection of your
experience and accomplishment,
your standing and reputation. It
determines who wins the game – who
has more Honour at the end of the
game? Honour can be won or lost
through combats, and in other actions
throughout a game. Honour is also
used to recruit followers to your cause,
to purchase skills and equipment, to
perform magickes and prayers before
battle.
However, we also allow the player to
decide what sort of champion they
want to be. Will you arm yourself with
magic items of great renown? Will you
accomplish heroic feats in the course of
a battle/game? Will your Honour and
Fame grow with your adventures and
accomplishments?
or…
There is a flipside to honour, where
evil players can try and gain an evil
inversion of Honour. Let’s call this
Infamy.
Will you recruit evil underlings to do
your bidding? Will you seek to burn
down villages, rather than rescue
them? Will you be happier performing
dirty tricks during a battle, ambushing
innocents on isolated roads, or laying
down traps in a dungeon? Will you go
down in history remembered for your
Infamy?
A Party of Heroic Adventurers, with a
useful range of skills and items? Or an
evil overlord, building their reputation
through fear and resentment? You
choose!
Above & Below –
Play skirmish battles above ground:
protect the village and its denizens
(or destroy it!); defend the merchants
and their caravan (or rob it!); clear the
wilderness of wild monsters (or join
them!); stop the ship from being sunk
in the middle of the sea (or stave holes
in its hull).
or…
Delve deep into the dungeons
underground to search for treasure and
magic-items; Search for the Evil which
lurks in the Ancient Ones’ Temple;
Infiltrate the Evil Overlord’s Lair
Campaign – A Legacy system to
accumulate honour and resources.
Build your Story, your Legend.
Progress in Magic, Skills and Expertise.
Gather Followers or Minions to your
Legend. Become strong enough to Rule
in your Land.
Magic – utilise magic users’ activation
cards as deck-building combinations
for a variety of attack, healing and
status effect spells. Utilise prayers to
the Gods, or summon creatures to do
your bidding in a battle.
Monster Building – A framework
to build creatures and incorporate
them into the Game – as followers,
heroes, or as neutral foes to battle
against. With a range of characteristics
broad enough to encompass a
free imagination: undead, fliers,
monstrous, regenerating, multi-
limbed, daemonic.
Solo-Play or Co-Op play – For
players who want a small and simple
game, and don’t have an opponent,
Legendary provides a simple system
to play against. Could also work for
2 players – who may both be ‘good’
players or ‘evil players. Automated
combat and movement, focusing on
objectives relative to scenarios and/or
missions.
