Vanguard Exiles is a new style of auto-battler designed by legendary game designer, Richard Garfield. Each player pits their Squad against their opponent in an ever-changing environment. Each Squad has its own unique identity and is comprised of Units and Actions, each with traits and abilities that can shape your battle strategy. You are the general, guide your troops to victory!
Following the cataclysm that was the Day of Ash, the exiled people of each of the world’s factions were thrust into a war-torn realm. With survival hinging on putting differences aside, Generals like you came forward to band exiles from any faction to form Vanguards; and lead them into battle to reclaim the broken world before them.
