About the game

What is Nightfall: Eastern Skies?

Game description from the publisher: The war for the eternal night rages around the world, and nowhere is it more bizarre than in the far east. A fully functional city in India nearly untouched by the Nightfall, uncontrolled ghouls from the seas, and strange happenings in the skies are only the beginning. Nightfall: Eastern Skies is a strategy deck-building game in which you take control of Hunters, Lycanthropes, Vampires, and Ghouls to take down your opponent. This set features the new Link mechanism allowing for faster play. Nightfall: Eastern Skies can be played on its own or combined with other Nightfall sets for enhanced play.
