Gameplay

Frostgrave is a fantasy wargame in which wizards battle each other.^[1] Combat is primarily resolved through the use of 20 sided dice. A key feature of Frostgrave is the bestiary where if all players agree a random encounter table is consulted and an uncontrolled creature may enter the battlefield.^[2]

Reception

William Niebling for ICv2 gave Frostgrave: Ulterior Motives 4 out of 5 stars and said that "Ulterior Motives expands Frostgrave in a way that makes it even more fun to play, without bogging down the game with a lot of fiddly new rules, and without undermining the core elements that make the game unique."^[3]
