THE PUNISHER



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]


Hello friends!

The best defense is a good offense, but in this case, you really need some defense.


[h3]MIRINA’S QUALIFICATION[/h3]

In one of Mirina’s Qualifications, you’ll face The Punisher; a powerful character with a whopping 85 health and 20 armor. He also has the ability to defeat your commander in just one hit! You’ll struggle to cut through him without stacking a lot of damage boosts on one character or breaking all his armor. But what if you don’t actually need to cut through him?



While he seems dangerous, he cannot move sideways. This means he’s easily blocked by another character. The Punisher also doesn’t do a whole lot of damage, and the opponent has no way of amplifying it. I wonder if there’s a way to completely negate his damage and outlast him forever?

While The Punisher is your main threat, the enemy has more than just him in his deck. You’ll have to deal with a handful of other characters who are hunting down your Commander. Dispose of them, keep The Punisher busy and end your foe!

Want to get your hands on a Field Equipment card that gives you two random support cards at the cost of some health? Make sure to use four or more item support cards during the battle and it’s all yours.



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]

Haven’t had your fill of being punished? We won’t judge. In this extra difficult version of this fight, The Punisher is supported by the archers right behind him. You won’t be able to get to them without cutting through The Punisher himself. These archers are also unable to move between lanes, which makes them easy to block



In addition, the enemy will have a lot more cards available to use. He has some powerful combinations at his disposal that can quickly spiral out of control if you don’t deal with the threats ASAP.

As a final challenge, you won’t be allowed to use Shooter type characters. No Ranger, no Rogue, no Skovos!

BANDIT HORDE



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]


Hello friends!

Need to blow off some steam? You’re in luck, as there’s an entire horde of bandits ready to be cut down!



[h3]ADJUTANT DOFUS’ FIGHT[/h3]

In this battle, you’ll have to face off against a whole bunch of bandits blocking the way to the enemy Commander. In fact, the majority of the battlefield has been occupied by bandits! You’ll have to create more breathing room for yourself to not get overwhelmed. You won’t have to worry about enemy reinforcements though, as the enemy Commander does not have any other card in his deck.



The Bandits start off with low stats; you can defeat one with a single hit from most of your units. However, some of the bandits in the group have the special ability to buff their fellow bandits upon their death; all remaining bandits will gain 2 attack and 2 health.

A lot of the usual strategies in other battles will work, but a strong frontline is really important here. As a bonus tip, treat yourself to a card with retaliation!



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]

Once you’re finished with your qualification battles, you’ll be able to challenge an even bigger horde! In the Challenger Battle, there are more Murderers on the field; those bandits who buff their allies upon death.



Unlike the normal version of the fight, the enemy has additional cards to play. You’ll have to keep up with him summoning new bandits to not get overrun! The win condition for this battle requires you to have at least three of your warriors alive when you defeat the enemy commander. Your deck only has ten cards, so you’ll need to use your deck to the fullest to survive the onslaught!

GETTING DOUBLED



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]



Hello friends!

Again, happy New Year! We’re back from our holiday week, completely refreshed and re-energized to finalize Ash of Gods: The Way. Keep an eye on the Steam community and our social media to stay up to date with developments, because we will have a lot to share leading up to the release!

For now though, we’d like to take you through another one of the battles you will come across, or already experienced yourself in the gameplay demo!



[h3]ADJUTANT THORK’S FIGHT[/h3]

By the time you get to this battle, you’ve probably grown accustomed to being limited to one character card and one support card each turn. Well, it’s time to switch it up! Throughout this fight, you’ll have two character cards and two support cards to use each turn! To make sure this battle does not end in a quick, anticlimactic conclusion, all the cards in your deck have been doubled as well. Only took one Monk with you? Guess what, you now have two. Additionally, your opponent starts with six characters on the field already.



A lot of space is required to house all these characters, so you’ll fight on a large open field with a handful of obstacles. These barrels will provide cover for your ranged units and the flanks of your warriors, but are ultimately a double-edged sword. Your opponent will be able to make use of them as well!

This battle is a great opportunity to explore the Bandit deck if you haven’t already. As fighting in large numbers empowers Bandits, their deck is a natural fit for this battle!



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]



If all that isn’t enough, we have an extra challenge for you! In the Challenger Battler, you have to find your way around many more obstacles that populate the field. While this may provide excellent cover for your units, it also really slows down the flow of battle and limits your options for outplaying the enemy. You won’t be able to move more than one unit sideways in a turn either!

To make things even worse, you have to finish this battle in a mere ten turns to come out victorious. Time is of the essence!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hello, friends!

It's finally Christmas time and we here at AurumDust wish all of you very joyful holidays and a hopeful 2023. We want to thank you for being with us all this time, for your support and help, we really appreciate it. We wish you a plenty of nice moments and the most wonderful games! Cheers!

IT’S TIME TO DUEL



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]

While most battles require teamwork and cunning strategies to succeed, this one requires you to simply beat your foe into a pulp.

Before you can challenge Adjutant Skol, you’ll have to get through the qualification. This one is very different from the ones you’ve won so far, as it plays out in a series of one-on-one duels. You can’t move around your characters; once you place them, you better make sure they’re ready to brawl.



[h2]PREPARATIONS[/h2]



You’ll do well to prepare for this battle specifically. If your current deck relies on support characters or outlasting the enemy, you’ll struggle to win in one-on-one fights. A monk won’t be able to heal or defend himself, so a duel would be a nightmare situation. An archer relies on range to stay alive, and won’t be able to tackle an opponent head on.

Instead, build your deck for a strong frontline: survivable characters that can take a hit and hit hard themselves. Use your armor and health to tank a hit or overpower your foe with sheer damage before your opponent even gets a chance to do anything in return. Equip your characters with cards that quickly buff the stats of your units instead of ones that take a while to get going.



[h2]LET’S FIGHT![/h2]



Now that you’re all set up, let’s get to dueling! The battle will consist of several one-on-one fights in three rows. Every battle won will damage the enemy Commander by 15 points, while every battle lost will damage yours by the same amount. New enemies will appear and will need to be challenged when duels are finished. Whoever knocks out the other Commander first comes out victorious!

You start with five character cards and five support cards right away to give you more initial options to pick from. You’ll have to select three characters to start your duels with, starting with the leftmost duel. After having determined all three duel matchups, you can select two support cards to use or give to any of your warriors. Keep in mind though: if one of your characters wins their duel, they will leave the battlefield and cannot be resummoned. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket!

Want to enhance your Bandit deck and get your hands on the bonus card for this battle? Make sure you win this battle with more than 10 Commander HP remaining!



[h2]DIFFICULTY UP[/h2]



Too easy for you? Once you’ve won every battle in the tournament, you can choose to attempt the extra challenging version for an extra reward. This time though, the enemy gets to move first and their Commander has way more health! You’ll need to come out victorious with at least 5 health remaining on your Commander. Do so, and you’ll get a Secret Charm card that provides one of your Bandit cards with a protective barrier that negates all incoming damage for one hit. Neat!



That’s all for now! Remember, you can play Ash of Gods: The Way and this exact battle right now, for free! Download the demo below and let us know what you think about the game on our Discord server!
