"When giant monsters arrive on Earth, inexplicably they start a brawl of gigantic proportions that threatens to level the megacity of Tokyo. Afraid that the gigantic creatures would soon take their fight to other population centers once Tokyo was destroyed, countries around the world focused their resources on constructing a special type of weapon to fight the monsters - massive robots piloted by humans, known as Jaegers..."
No points for guessing the inspiration for this variant.![]()
The idea is to have a deck of cards that represent these Jaegers attacking the players. This allows for a 3rd endgame which is the extermination of all the monsters and a victory for humankind! (Hurray!?)
This is just a draft proposal so feel free to comment.
ADDITIONAL RULES:
Shuffle the Jaeger Attack deck and set it aside. The first player to reach the following number of Victory Points draws a Jaeger Attack card at the end of his or her turn: 7, 13, 18.
Victory conditions are only checked after resolving the Jaeger Attack card.
If there is only 1 player left, immediately draw a Jaeger Attack card and resolve it. If the player survives, he or she wins the game.
If a card effect can target more than 1 valid player, the player who drew the card decides.
