Cthulhu Wars: Windwalker Expansion [CW-F3] (Kickstarter Special)

Board Game Geek Rating: 7.18. Average Player Rating: 8.06. This is a faction expansion for the Cthulhu Wars board game, suitable for 2 - 5 players and published in 2020. Please note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. The Windwalker expansion comes with unique figures like the Ithaqua, 1 Rhan Tegoth, 6 Acolyte Cultists, 4 Wendigos, 4 Gnoph - Kehs, 1 Ice Age figure, 2 Marker figures, 6 Spellbooks, and a Faction Card. The Windwalker faction, led by Ithaqua, the god of Outer Space, shines in the late game. Its mighty army, powered by Sweeping Winds, Howl, and Ice Age spellbooks, can dominate the gameplay. The Gnoph - Kehs are cost - effective strong monsters, creating a feedback loop that makes other players take notice. In playtests, late - game Ithaqua can be as powerful as or even more powerful than Great Cthulhu. This faction is resilient, with cultists immune to capture, free - appearing Wendigos, and an almost unkillable Rhan - Tegoth. If you prefer late - game strength over early building, this expansion is perfect for you. At TheGameSteward, we support Kickstarter campaigns.

Using the Cthulhu Wars: Windwalker Expansion is easy. First, set up the main Cthulhu Wars game as usual. Then, add the figures and cards from the Windwalker expansion according to the rules. The Ithaqua and Rhan - Tegoth figures are key to the faction, so place them carefully on the board. Remember, the Windwalker faction is more powerful in the late game, so plan your strategy accordingly. During the game, use the spellbooks to unleash special abilities. The Sweeping Winds, Howl, and Ice Age spellbooks can give your army an edge. When it comes to the Gnoph - Kehs, try to build up their numbers to get better cost - efficiency. As for the Wendigos, they'll appear for free when a unit is killed in battle, which can turn the tide of the game. One important thing to note is that the paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. So, if you're expecting certain extra items, double - check the details. To maintain your game set, keep the figures and cards in a dry and clean place. Avoid bending the cards and try not to scratch the figures.
