Heroes of Land, Air & Sea is a 4X-style board game that tells the epic tale of Aughmoore's many conflicts: Orcs vs. Humans, Dwarves vs. Elves, battling kingdoms, and the heroic individuals who turn the tides of war.
Players control one of these four Factions, competing to expand their small kingdom of a single Warrior and two Serfs into new territory. From there, players must explore the territory around them, expand their work force, fortify their army, and build up their Capital City - all through careful action selection, exploitation, war, and Resource management.
As players reach milestones through building, recruiting, or war, they gain access to many advantages and Victory Points. Achieving one of four "X-Objectives" will end the game: eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, or eXterminate.
Finding this balance in exploration, kingdom growth, territory exploitation, and war is crucial. After one of the X-Objectives have been met, the game is over and players total their Victory Points, crowning one of them as the most supreme Faction of Aughmoore!

Object of the Game
Every round, players are exploring, building their Capital City, casting Spells, and Battling to gain Victory Points ().
After one player achieves any one of the 4 "X-Objectives", then players finish the current round as normal and play one additional full round which will be the final round. These "X-Objectives" are:
- eXplore - All Land Exploration Tokens in the game have been revealed.
- eXpand - All of a player's Serfs and Warriors are in play.
- eXploit - All 3 of a player's Towers are in play.
- eXterminate - A player has destroyed another player's Capital City.
Once the end of the game has been triggered, it cannot be undone, even if the end game conditions are no longer met. After the final round ends, the game is over.
Players total their Victory Points, from Buildings, Towers, certain Units, Scribed Spells, occupied Regions, and any other end game bonuses. The player with the most Victory Points is crowned the supreme Faction of Aughmoore.
