Three Fronts
Your forces split across three lanes. Destroy two anchors—or obliterate one lane entirely.
Each lane has an anchor. Break it, and an essence emerges. Break that too, and the lane falls forever.

Initiative
Play a card, lose priority. Pass, and keep it. Every action is a gamble.
The player with initiative acts first. Passing forces your opponent to reveal their move—or end the round.

Position Combat
Units clash at matching positions. Leave a gap, they hit your anchor.
Slot 0 fights slot 0. Slot 3 fights slot 3. An empty slot means direct damage to your objective.
The world of Helm
A continent ringed by three seas
Helm stretches from frozen Aliathon to the sunken Wastes. Its seas are arteries of war, commerce, and rumor. Every coastline hides a new anchor and a new version of the past.
Nord Sea
Ice floes choke the harbors of Aliathon. Normark longships are the only law.
West Sea
Every cargo moves with Varenth's blessing. Or it doesn't move.
South Sea
Warm currents to the Hundred Isles. Varenth claims them all.

Art direction
Heavy oils on weathered canvas
The world of Anchorfall should feel painted by hand. Baroque lighting, thick impasto strokes, and deep glazed shadows build the sense of memory and myth across every surface.
The Accord
The four kingdoms shared one truth. The Anchors held the world together.
The Silence
No one remembers what shattered it. The histories contradict themselves.
The Vigil
Each faction guards the Anchors now. Each believes only they understand them.
Anchorfall
When an anchor falls, reality shifts. Whoever controls that moment controls what comes next.
Normark
Karness
Varenth
