Meticulously created by an illustrator fanatical about myth and history, Panomachea stays faithful to the visuals and narratives of Greek mythology while offering just enough twist on the visuals of Ancient Greece to make a unique interpretation of these classic characters.The cards will be printed on high quality black core card stock --designed to handle the wear and tear of play (particularly when you're turning all your friends into enemies by stealing their best cards).The game itself is built for casual play. You can learn it quickly and play right away. But the more you play, the deeper it goes. There's enough complexity to allow for strategic play and surprises in every game. But like any Ancient Greek story, Chaos is ever-present, and you can never be too certain of a winning hand.

Panomachea contains a total of 84 cards, 67 of which have unique and completely original illustrations created laboriously by hand to maintain a consistent style and tone.

Every one of the 56 Fighter Cards has an original interpretation of the Immortal, Hero or mythological Beast, in addition to the character's Power Level in the game, name (both the Latinized version we're familiar with and the Ancient Greek spelling), a brief description and a clearly defined suit by the color of the card and the emblem in the bottom right.

There are four suits in Panomachea: the Sky, Sea, Earth and Fire.

Each suit has their Power Level boosted by a Location Card, which switches throughout the game.

Tyche Cards (Tyche means Chance or Fortune in Ancient Greek) allow the player to shake up the Field of Battle and employ gambits to lose big or win it all. There are seven total (three pictured here.)

Panomachea is currently undergoing playtesting to refine and improve the game. The card designs you see are generally complete but subject to tweaking and may appear in print a little differently than you see here. A crowdfunding campaign will launch in late Summer 2024.
