Madelyn and I have been hard at work getting some artwork underway! Starting in a couple of weeks, we’re excited to start showcasing some of what we’ve been up to and give you a little bit more background into the different nations of Project Aleutian.

Their abilities are aimed at adding some interesting interactions between the different players such as swapping cards and triggering espionage. It will also add some more variety to the different nation ability combinations when playing with four players.
