	Description Edit \| History

Chaostle (kâ'os'l) is a combination of the words Chaos and Castle. Chaostle is a three-dimensional castle fantasy board game. Each player selects their starting armies that they will use to battle against their enemies in an attempt to conquer the castle for their King or Queen. The armies consist of many different fantasy fighters with unique skills and weaknesses such as wizards, dragons, unicorns, knights, archers, etc. The fighters are custom collectible plastic miniatures. The game has many levels of strategy that can be offset by a wide range of fates (both good and bad).

Summarized Abilities Avery 8164

Labels for the back of each character sheet. It summarizes all three special abilities. Seemed to be good for beginners.

Chaostle Character Abilities Reference Cards

Character ability reference sheets based on the character abilities as listed in the back of the rule book. One reference sheet is included for each of the 16 characters in the base game. I recommend printing on full sheet photo paper and cutting out the cards. Freq = frequency (how often an ability can be used). Usage = usage (when the ability can be used) Point Rep = points represent (what the numbers next to the skill on the character card represent (e.g. range, number to roll, etc) I've reviewed them carefully, but please let me know if you find any errors.

Improved Happiness Fate Reference

Many of the fates are very chaotic and can discourage players with an unlucky streak. Play this version of the fate reference sheets for a less chaotic more strategic game of Chaostle.
