I just ordered this board game via ebay. Dave Megarry, who also created Dungeon!, is the primary designed of this game which then falls into the category of games designed by Dave Arneson's Twin City Gaming Group.

The features a war between "the East" and "the West" in a unique fantasy world. Some traditional fantasy races appear here such as elves and dwarves, but also new an unusual ones like the rocklike Lith.

I can't wait for this game to arrive. I noticed from that it has a map of the world so this will be interesting. Perhaps another way to expand the Twin City Gamer Universe? 8)

Does anyone else here have this game? :)

Never heard of it before seeing this thread, and I hope you'll give us an in-depth evaluation of the game when it arrives.

Yeah, bought it a couple years ago. It's cool. I keep wanting to ask Megarry about it because I bet the core story happened as RPG play.
