00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.878
The ashes from Europa's Great War still darken the snow in the isolated patch of land around the Factory.

00:00:09.878 --> 00:00:15.577
It was here that monstrous mechs were once forged.

00:00:15.579 --> 00:00:19.518
But after the war, the Factory closed its doors, its foundries falling silent.

00:00:19.518 --> 00:00:30.297
Across Eastern Europa, leaders sent living legends towards the Factory to explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate.

00:00:30.298 --> 00:00:40.796
In Scythe, 1-5 players each receive a random pairing of a faction mat and a player mat to maximize replayability and asymmetry.

00:00:40.798 --> 00:00:51.697
The faction mat gives you a special skill, starting military strength, and four mechs, each with a unique ability that applies to all of your mechs and your character.

00:00:51.698 --> 00:00:57.017
Your player mat represents the economy of your growing empire.

00:00:57.018 --> 00:01:00.218
As you upgrade, build, enlist, and learn from the Factory, your costs decrease and your benefits increase.

00:01:00.219 --> 00:01:09.197
All resources are kept on and spent from territories you control on the board.

00:01:09.198 --> 00:01:15.897
Combat is driven by players' decisions and cunning, not randomness, with the winner forcing the losing units to retreat.

00:01:15.897 --> 00:01:26.058
Just as important as engagement between players is how you choose to interact with the people of the land.

00:01:26.058 --> 00:01:30.278
Through choices on encounter and objective cards, you seek to not only be rich and powerful, but also popular.

00:01:30.278 --> 00:01:38.356
Join us on this journey of farming and war, broken hearts and rusted gears, innovation and valor.

00:01:38.358 --> 00:01:43.016
Join us for Scythe!
