From Guillotine Games, based on Adrian Smith's graphic novels, HATE is a fast - paced, extremely brutal post - apocalyptic survival campaign game. Up to six players fight through a multi - game Chronicle. They use their unique clans to plunder, mutilate, and demoralize opponents. The player who uses Savagery (from violence) to upgrade warriors and Resources (from plundering) to unlock village abilities wins. Only the one with the most Hate becomes the Tyrant. In this competitive game, players manage resources, hate, and scavenge in a harsh post - apocalyptic world. Gathered resources can upgrade the clan village and members. Death is permanent for clan members. Compete, eliminate rivals, and survive! At TheGameSteward, we're happy to back campaigns to bring you games like Hate. A large percentage of your spend on this game will go towards backing new Kickstarter games. If you have purchase questions or need game advice, contact The Game Steward.
To start playing the Hate Board Game, first set up the game board using the terrain tiles. Place the miniatures on the board according to the rules. Each player chooses a clan and gets the relevant tribe cards. When it's your turn, you can scavenge resources from the land, which can be used to upgrade your clan village or your clan members. You gain savagery by doing violence to your opponents, and this can be used to upgrade your warriors. Remember, once a clan member dies, they're out of the game permanently. Try to eliminate rival clans and be the one with the most hate to become the Tyrant. As for maintenance, keep the cards in the plastic card sleeves to prevent damage. Store the miniatures carefully to avoid breakage. If you have any questions about the Kickstarter - related aspects, like what's included in the special edition, check the details in the product description. If you're unsure about the rules, refer to the rulebook.
