Dice Throne Rival Details

Key Concepts:
1. You’ll need a d6 (or use any die from any character, only the numbers will be used)
2. Rival is the AI character
3. PLAYER is the player controlled character
4. Anytime a PLAYER card manipulates a roll, the Rival will do a Rival Roll
5. Draw Cards = gain that value in CP
6. Rival receives 1 CP at the beginning of each turn as normal
7. Rival does not have a ‘hand of cards’. Only two piles (one for upgrades one for modifiers)
8. Any cards that allow the Rival to gain cards, gains the character CP
9. All cards in the Rivals’ Action Pile are playable at any time. e.g. any card that is not an upgrade, is
considered usable whenever it is drawn.

Rival Aggression Status:


1. Aggressive Mode Traits
● Rival will use status effects at the first available opportunity that provides any benefit
2. Methodical Mode Traits

● Rival Roll success on 2,3,4,5 (fail on 1, 6)
● Anytime CP is earned it also heals the Rival
● Upgrades cost 1 less CP

● Rival will ‘Respond’ to defensive rolls
● Allow the Upgrade success to occur during Main Phase 1 and 2
2. Easier
● Rival Roll success on 1,6 (fail on 2,3,4,5)
