How to Play Force of Will

2021.12.07

Force of Will Trading Card Game

 

Use your J/ruler avatar and generate will to summon resonators and play chants, to contest against your opponent’s forces.

 

In this turn based game, players trade off amassing the game’s resource, called will. They then use that will to summon resonators, use spells for support and eventually use their J/ruler’s Judgment ability to have their avatar join the battle as well. Judgment abilities are powerful and can turn the tide of the battle in your favor, so you’ll need all your skill to determine when to use this powerful ability! By using your forces you can attack your opponent, decrease their life points from 4000 down to 0, and win the game!

 

Your J/ruler

 

This card is your avatar. It starts the game with the Ruler side up. Each Ruler has its own unique abilities. When you pay your Ruler’s Judgment cost, it flips over to its J-ruler side, and joins the battle in the field with your resonators!
