About: Infinity Deathmatch: TAG Raid is a 2-to-4-player game with miniatures that recreates skirmishes and multiplayer combat in the Infinity Universe, a science-fiction, high-tech universe that portrays an exciting, action-packed near-future setting with manga aesthetics. Each player represents one of the Mining Corporations that has managed to obtain a concession of exploitation in Khurland, south of Ariadnan territory. The goal of these Corporations is to obtain as much Neomaterial as possible, whether it is Teseum or the prized T-Bezoar, and they will stop at nothing to get it. These mining operations are no easy task and not just because of Khurland’s hostile environment or the possibility of bumping into a MegaBeast, the greatest danger lies in the Corporations’ own greed that players will face in lethal combats and raids.

About: Kinghill is a unique combination of euro games and modern card games. Mixing together specific mechanics is relatively popular nowadays.
I grew up on Magic: the Gathering and love euro games, especially worker placement games. There is not such a game, combining the best from both "worlds" in this way, until now.
Specialized workers. Resource management. Buildings to build. Units to hire. Strategic combat. Destructive Powers! Multiple choices. Unique gameplay experience! This game was designed to combine complex euro game mechanics with fast-paced combat, powerful spells, and varied strategies.
