Vanguard Exiles is set in a fantasy post World War I diesel punk era where magic and technology fuse together. 

Following the cataclysm that was the Day of Ash, the exiled people of each of the world’s factions were thrust into a war-torn realm. With survival hinging on putting differences aside, Generals like you came forward to band exiles together to form Vanguards; and lead them into battle to reclaim the broken world before them.

You are the general, guide your troops to victory!

Features for the demo are limited to a single player vs AI experience.

Mechanics

Vanguard Exiles is a new style of Auto-Battler designed by legendary game designer, Richard Garfield. 
 
In your role as a General, your mission is to lead your Squad against your opponent, to reclaim the world before you, zone by zone.  

Form a strategy and deploy your units into the various zones of the battlefield, with the goal to claim as many Victory Points as you can whilst anticipating your opponents’ strategy. With Units and Actions that are unique to each Squad, battling within an environment that changes and grows as the battle progresses, no skirmish is ever the same!  

Your success as a General depends on how you use the Units and Actions unique to your Squad, and your choice of unlocking Units from the Barracks, to lead them to glorious victory!

Factions

The Ironhand Dominion

With the Dwarven Emperor ailing in his bed, his ambitious son seeks to reclaim long-lost lands and rebuild the glory of The Ironhand Dominion. With those lands fraught in a dark history, not all Dwarves would see old wounds reopened, and civil war erupts amongst them.

The Scintillant Assembly

The Elven Collective abandoned their old gods, embracing a fusion of science and magic. Despite thriving in this era of exploration, an offshoot of the collective, the Scintillant Assembly, have become pariahs amongst their kind for their reckless pursuit for knowledge and power.

Magus

Known only as "Magus," this shadowy group of human diabolists remains shrouded in mystery. Some claim they were a government occult project; others say they worship an otherworldly horror. What is certain is their use of dark magic and the unnatural creatures they summon.
