RWBY: Combat Ready – Team JNPR Expansion

Battles are fought in a series of duels against a particular villain, with objectives, and sometimes special rules. No two battles are ever the same! During each duel, one player is the Active Player fighting the villain, with the action focused on that player.

The Active Player chooses and plays an attack from their hand. The player has a hint of what the Villain is going to do based on the stance shown on the Villain’s card –Subtle cards tend to have lower Speed, Balanced cards are mid-ranged, and Aggressive cards have higher Speed attacks!

After the Active Player chooses a card each of the other players will choose their actions. The other players can support the Active Player, by performing powerful combos against the Villain, or by assisting the Active Player with special abilities.

Alternatively, the other players can tackle some of the scenario objectives –like attacking the Grimm, taking out snipers, or finding Zwei! Teamwork is necessary! Players will collaborate while making these choices and work together to defeat the Villain!

After all players have decided upon their course of action, the villain’s card is revealed and the attack is resolved. Each attack has a speed in its upper left corner. The two attacks’ speed values are compared, with the faster attack hitting and inflicting its damage on the opposing character. If the speeds are tied, the round ends in a draw.

The Duel continues with the Active Player fighting head-to-head against the Villain, until the duel is ended by the Villain reaching the end of the Fury track, the Active Player running out of cards, or until one of the combatants is bashed!
