The Lilypad Diaspora, scattered and suppressed, returns to the Woodland. They aim for peaceful reintegration, but in a civil - war situation, peace is scarce. As they train warriors, they must balance safety and aggression. A misunderstanding can lead to vicious reprisals. The Twilight Council, sickened by the conflict, hosts assemblies to end the war. These assemblies focus on political connections, pushing factions towards debate. As the Council progresses, they can declare edicts to manipulate enemies.

To use this Root: The Homeland Expansion Gameplay Bundle, first, make sure you have the Root core game as it's required to play. Then, set up the new expansion elements like the Homeland Expansion, Homeland Hirelings Pack, and Squires and Disciples Deck according to the game rules. When playing, you can choose between the two new factions - the Lilypad Diaspora and the Twilight Council. For the Lilypad Diaspora, be careful when dealing with other Woodland groups to avoid misunderstandings that could lead to violence. For the Twilight Council, use the assemblies to your advantage and declare edicts when appropriate. As for maintenance, keep the game components in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing the cards to direct sunlight for a long time to prevent fading. If you spill something on the game pieces, gently wipe them clean with a soft cloth. Also, store the game in its original box or a suitable container to keep all the parts organized.
