Pacific Rim: Extinction Starter Set

During a game round, players control Jaegers or Kaiju on their turn by playing 'Action Cards.' These represent all-out attacks, cunning tricks, solid defenses, secret weapons, and everything else! When Jaegers or Kaiju take damage, the player who dealt the damage takes an action card at random from their opponent and reads the Damage section of the card to find out what happens. There's a chance that a critical part of Jaeger machinery or Kaiju biology, will be struck with massive consequences. The Action Card that was drawn as Damage is then discarded, and cannot be used for the rest of the game. In this way, dealing damage to an enemy not only brings them closer to destruction but can also render weapons or abilities useless.
