Root is a war game in which players battle for control of the forest with one of 10 unique factions, each with their own rules and pieces. Stalk the woods as one of the Vagabonds, seize the initiative with the Eyrie birds of prey, rule over your subjects as the Marquise de Cat, command the Woodland Alliance to create a new order, or play as one of the expansion factions: Riverfolk merchants, Mole aristocracy, treacherous Crows, or Lizard cultists. With creatures and cunning, you'll rule a fantastic forest kingdom in the ultimate asymmetric board game of adventure and war.
This organized game at Dogpatch Games takes place each 1st Sunday at 1pm. Players should come already knowing how to play the game but new players are welcome! We will be using the Advanced setup faction draft rules and someone from DPG will be there to help you with the faction draft.
