From publisher blurb: BattleSauce combines the best aspects of role playing games - immersive stories, cool characters, awesome fights, exotic treasures - with the best parts of board games - easy setup, quick play, and everyone can participate. Play BattleSauce like a traditional, story-telling role playing game (RPG) or as a board game with almost no story telling at all. Or a healthy mix of both. BattleSauce is easy to learn, created for new players and experienced players alike. Our exciting new role playing system uses standard playing cards to add new dimensions of strategy and customization to your gaming experience!
