Need allies? Here they are, fiery and fierce. Discover unique strategies and make the Woodland wilder by adding hirelings. Best with fewer players, great with more!
Hirelings can be added to games at any player count. With fewer players, the hirelings add new pieces to the map, ramping up the tension and giving you more tactical options. With more players, some hireling cards will flip over to reveal new special abilities to gain, letting you explore unique and powerful strategies.
The Hirelings Box is an easy way to store and organize all your hirelings, and the Marauder Hirelings Pack includes three sets of hirelings:-
Flame Bearers/Rat Smugglers
Burn it all down with the Flame Bearers or dispatch special orders with Rat Smugglers.
Street Band/Popular Band
Capture attention with the Street Band or put on a Woodland show with the Popular Band.
Vault Keepers/Badger Bodyguards
Preserve the ancient ways with the Vault Keepers or shield yourself from harm with Badger Bodyguards.
ROOT is a fully asymmetric strategy board game designed by Cole Wehrle, lavishly illustrated by Kyle Ferrin, and brought to life by the team at Leder Games. Stalk the woods as one of the Vagabonds, seize the initiative with the Eyrie birds of prey, rule over your subjects as the Marquise de Cat, or command the Woodland Alliance to create a new order. In Root, the players drive the narrative, and the differences among the roles create unparalleled interaction and replayability.
To understand how Root integrates with all of our products in this campaign, as well as our current existing expansions, please refer to our New to Root Chart (click on chart to see the hi-res version).
