About KARDS - The WW2 Card Game
KARDS blends a collectible‑card‑game format with World War II strategy, letting players command ground, air, and sea forces.

Decks represent one of the five major WWII powers and may include an ally nation for extra support. Players advance through ranks from Private to Field Marshal, unlocking monthly rewards along the way.

Gameplay Mechanics
KARDS uses traditional CCG rules while adding frontline mechanics that protect support assets and let players push forward. Players can choose tactics such as Blitzkrieg rushes, air superiority, or defensive digging to outproduce opponents. The system encourages strategic depth beyond simple card play.
- Experiment with different frontline placements to see how they affect support unit safety.
- Balance aggressive pushes with defensive setups to manage opponent pressure.

Deck Building
Each deck is built around one of the five major WWII powers and may include a single ally nation for additional cards. Decks combine units—infantry, tanks, artillery, aircraft—with supporting orders to match a chosen strategy. This flexibility lets players tailor their approach to offense or defense.
- Include a mix of unit types to adapt to changing battlefield conditions.
- Use the ally nation slot to fill gaps in your primary power’s strengths.

Resource Management
Kredits serve as the in‑game currency for deploying new units, operating existing ones, and issuing orders. Managing Kredits efficiently is crucial; overspending can leave you vulnerable, while under‑investment may stall your offensive. The system mirrors real‑world logistics of a military campaign.
- Track Kredits spent each turn to avoid unexpected shortages.
- Prioritize orders that enhance the effectiveness of already‑deployed units.
