Incarnation Card Types and Attributes

In the game Incarnation, there are two primary types of cards: Unit Cards and Spell Cards.

Unit Cards

Unit Cards represent your allies on the battlefield. These cards can either attack, heal, or protect other allies. Units stay in play until they either run out of health or are removed by another effect. Certain units have the ability to perform quick actions, allowing them to attack immediately upon being placed, while others must wait until the next turn to act.

Attributes of Unit Cards (from top-left to bottom-right):

  • Mana Cost: Indicates the amount of Mana required to summon the unit.

  • Health: Represents the amount of damage the unit can endure before being destroyed. Damage is permanent, meaning a unit doesn't regain lost health unless healed by an effect.

  • Power (Attack or Heal): Shows the amount of damage the unit can inflict when attacking or the amount of health it can restore to an ally.

  • Action Cost (Bottom middle): Specifies the amount of Mana required for the unit to perform its action once.

Spell Cards

Spell Cards provide various magical effects that can alter the course of the game. These effects can range from dealing direct damage to enemies, healing allies, or providing other strategic advantages.

Spell Cards provide immediate, one-use effects but do not have a physical presence on the board, meaning they do not have health.

Left Side Attributes:

  • Attack Range: Indicates the distance at which the card's unit can engage enemies. A longer attack range allows for greater tactical flexibility.

  • Dead Zone: Represents the area where the unit cannot attack. Understanding this zone is essential for positioning your units effectively.

  • Movement: Describes the mobility of the unit on the battlefield. Units with higher movement can navigate the battlefield more swiftly, offering strategic advantages.

  • Affected Units: Specifies which units are impacted by the card's abilities, whether they are allies, enemies, or both. Knowing this helps in planning your moves and maximizing the card's potential.

Right Side Skill Details:
