Over War - The Night Comes Down (Monarch Edition, POD, Black & White)

This is a print on demand copy and is not an original copy.

It is the year 1472 Dracos Domini and the land of Ballark is bathed in unrest.

The armies of the Over Night have descended from their floating islands to ravage the countryside, leaving disease, famine, and the byproducts of their cruel alchemical experiments in their wake.

You are a person of some minor authority. Whether you were born to this station or crawled into it, you now have control of a small band of combatants.

The nations of Ballark may have broken before the conquerors from the clouds, but you are determined that you will not fall. You will reclaim what they have taken.

Over War - Monarch Edition is the definitive remaster of the gothic fantasy roleplaying strategy game Over War: The Night Comes Down.

Inspired by classics such as Fire Emblem, Yggdra Union, Langrisser, and the works of Yasumi Matsuno, it combines the flexible storytelling and meaningful decision making of tabletop roleplaying with the hard tactical choices, territory control, and unit composition of strategy games.

In a land besieged by strange invaders, muster your forces, forge new alliances, and reconquer Ballark mile by bloody mile.

In Over War, players control commanders and their units. Commanders are unique, custom characters with the authority to recruit for and restructure their unit. They also have out of combat skills they can call on to tackle the diplomatic and physical landscapes of Ballark. Units are formed around their commander, and are assembled from a long list of premade character types. You might build a unit with a front row of Sea Cucumbers to traverse the seas, or an Alchemist in the back for healing, or a Tallfolk to soak damage away from your commander. Commanders start with a small roster of character types to recruit from, but can broaden their list by visiting towns, expanding their war camp, and making alliances with local powers.

Monarch Edition is a complete remaster of the original Over War, which has been out since 2022. Monarch Edition adds new tables, resources, lore, GM tools, and solo play support, and includes all content from the Fraternization And Fortresses, Roads Of Caer Elhwyn, The Gerlac Woods, and Lake Crescent expansions.
