Final War TCG is an Australian tactical card game published by Games Lab, with its debut set Onslaught released in June 2016 and prominently featured at PAX Australia that November. The game is set on Gloren, a high-fantasy world locked in an eternal struggle between forces of light and darkness, a setting that lead designer Ben Ellis developed over roughly 25 years of tabletop roleplaying campaigns before adapting it into a card game.
Two to four players each control a Warlord, a named hero who anchors a 50-card personal deck of supporting heroes, units, items, and fortifications. Gameplay is further shaped by a shared Fate Deck containing wandering monsters and game-altering events, and combat resolution uses 12-sided dice, giving the system a distinctly roleplaying-game flavour uncommon in CCGs of the era. The Onslaught base set offered three Warlord alignments: a spell-casting Elf (good), a Werewolf warrior (chaotic), and a Guildmaster rogue (neutral). Two 2017 expansions, Arcane and Carnage, each introduced three additional Warlords, bringing the total roster to nine.
