Masters Forge
A forge-themed strategy card game moving into physical playtesting, original item art, and stronger Foundry identity.
Overview
A tactical forge contest about timing, craft identity, and the moment a Masterwork changes the Strike.
Masters Forge is a competitive tabletop card game where rival smiths prove their craft through Strikes, Orders, and high-impact Masterworks. The game has moved into a physical playtesting phase, with its main systems, modes, card structure, visual direction, and prototype foundations in place.
Why it stands out
Why follow Masters Forge?
A competitive card game where the forged pieces matter as much as the contest itself.
- Masterwork cards are identity pieces that can change the flow of the game.
- Strikes, Orders, Renown, and Craft families give the contest a clear tabletop shape.
- Swords, Axes, Armour, and Shields create a forge language that can carry both mechanics and art.
- Apprentice, Journeyman, and Guild Duel give the system space for teaching, deeper play, and two-player pressure.
- Foundries and named Masterworks give artists strong visual territory to explore.
