Game Rules:
In Warring Hands, 2 players compete with their own 60-card decks. These decks are made up of energy, creature, ability and enchantment cards.
Each turn, a player may play 1 Energy card, which are used to play other cards from their hand during that player’s turn. Energy cards are also spent in order to use a creature’s attack. Creatures can also be set to defend.
Creatures may attack the opponent’s defending creatures in order to weaken and eventually destroy them. Once they are all destroyed, creatures can attack the opponent directly, which lowers that player’s life points. Once a player’s life points reaches 0, that player loses.
Enchantment cards can be played that have special effects that change the way the game is played as long as they are on the field while ability cards have temporary effects. Creatures and their attacks can also have special effects. Effects can be tied together in special strategies and combos.
There are 4 different factions of cards that generally work better for strategies and require different energy cards. These factions are: Royal, Beast, Horror and Magic.
Decks are composed of 60 cards, but may not include more than 5 duplicate cards. The only exception is for energy cards.

What Is This Thread?
This thread is set up to be a general discussion thread. I will continue to update this specific post as more screenshots are taken and more progress is made. Of course, when the game is officially released, I’ll be posting it right here!
This thread will also be where you can post strategies and deck recipes, too.
Discord?
I created a Discord so that people can join up and discuss strategies and stuff for this game outside of this thread since this game will eventually be ported to the Gamebuino Meta.
