Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Epic is a fantasy strategy Card Game released by White Wizard Games, and designed by Robert Dougherty and Darwin Kastle. After accidentally tearing reality apart due to their fights, the deities in charge of the universe make a truce. After fixing up the previous universe, the gods now have to resort to using proxies instead of direct conflict.This is where the game itself comes in: Players command champions and play events to reduce their opponent's score to 0.What makes this fantasy game different from others is its resource system. Each player gains 1 Gold at the start of everyone's turn. Then they can use that 1 gold to play a card cost. If they don't, the gold goes away at the end and they start with 1 gold again on the next player turn. And cards are either free to play or cost only 1 gold. As a result, players can start playing super-powerful cards right away — no waiting to save up or gather resources. In fact, most of the cards in the game are powerful and useful, creating a sense of an epic struggle going on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Another difference is that Epic is not a Collectible Card Game (though it originated as one). Though one can expand the game buying expansions, the players get all the cards in a single purchase (similar to Fantasy Flight Games' "living card game" model). Still, the game replicates the feel of a CCG, and has multiple formats in mind. Players can construct their decks, do drafts (even cube, though they need another couple of copies), and even play pre-constructed (just separate the alignments into their own decks). All the fun ways to play a CCG without the high cost and searching for powerful cards. | |

A Taste of the Lash | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_117b3429 | comment |
A Taste of the Lash: Downplayed with Lash. Though it does some damage to the Champion, that target also gains more abilities and offensive strength. Oh, the art has a whip-welding warrior riding a T-rex. | |

Instant-Win Condition: If a deck runs out of cards to draw, that player wins. This is the reverse for most games - players typically lose when they run out of cards to draw. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The Trading Card Game is different from the current EPIC. There were three factions (Good, Evil, and Wild) with unaligned cards, and the color scheme was different (gold for Good, purple for Evil, and blue-grey for Unaligned). An additional card type "objects" existed. It also had Science Fantasy elements, with cards referencing firearms and mecha. Most of the card art was computer generated, as opposed to the traditional art style being currently used. | |

Continuity Reboot: Of the Epic Trading Card Game, a CCG released in 2009. It pretty much had the same system as the Non-Collectible counterpart. Alas, the game did not gather much popularity and it remains rather obscure. Other changes include innovations from Star Realms: the use of four color factions, and faction-triggered abilities. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Paying homage to Magic the Gathering, this game has Fireball, Hill Giant, and Juggernaut cards. The effect done by these cards is different from their Magic counterparts though. The Rage card has a werewolf on its art, echoing a similarly named CCG based on Werewolf: The Apocalypse. The Frost Giant's flavor text: Winter has come. | |

The End of the World as We Know It | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_d71d51fd | comment |
The End of the World as We Know It: Evil seems to love causing a variety of cataclysms. Not only do the alignment have Zombie Apocalypse (see that trope further down), they also have a straightforward Apocalypse which does wipe the board. Another is Army of the Apocalypse, which does the opposite: causing all discarded Champions to return to play. | |

Our Dragons Are Different: Of all kinds - good, evil, blue, strafing. A game called Epic wouldn't be living up to its name without a few dragons to play, now would it? | |

Fantasy Pantheon | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_df1a0454 | comment |
Fantasy Pantheon: The various gods and demigods. While the base game doesn't include them, deity cards were later released in Pantheon packs. These god cards are special - they are set aside and provide special effects on the player. Its recommended that the player either play with player using another deity-card or against three opponents working together. | |

Nerf | |
| Epic (Card Game) (Tabletop Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: Several cards that carried over from the original TCG have been toned down as not to be too powerful. For instance, the Drain Essence card. The Trading Card version had it do six damage to any Champion or Player, and gain 6 life. The Non-Collectable version does nine damage and gain that much life... but can only target Champions and not the opponent. | |
