Deep within the orcish caverns, the drums begin to beat. High in the treetops, the watch sounds the horns of the hunt. The Clans are on the move, the ancient war begins anew. The Elven Champions gather, test their weapons, draw up their resolve. Under the earth, the Orcish King rails against the Elves, exhorting his troops to blood-frenzy. The Queen of the Elves bids her heroes to her, impresses upon them the nature of their task. Tonight the battle will rage. A thousand Orcs will come to slaughter, and a handful of Elves will return the favor. HeroCard OrcWars is an asymmetrical fantasy game of fierce combat for two players.
