What is Malediction?
Malediction is a dark-fantasy tabletop miniatures game with a deck-building heart. You lead a Seeker across the mystical land of Agnar, spending echo to deploy your warband, playing cards to bend the battle, and racing rival factions to a mastery total. It rewards deep deck building, sharp tactics and — most of all — a thriving local table.
Deviant Dice Rollers is the community that plays it across New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia and Delaware. We share painted legions and decks, discover new strategies together, keep a calendar of gatherings, and yes — record every clash, league and tournament along the way.
