500+ CARDS OF CHAOS

THE CARDS

Six decks. Six kinds of chaos. Every card is a satirical gut punch. Some make you laugh. Some make you lose everything. Sometimes both.

ACTION CARDS

BLUE DECK100+ CARDS

Your core strategy. Every Action Card has two sides — one for Government, one for Resistance. Draw it, pick your faction effect, resolve immediately.

GOV

"Redistribute Funding" — Steal $1M from any opponent player.

RES

"Community Aid Drive" — Gain 1 Public Support Token immediately.

GOV

"Emergency Powers" — Suspend all Resistance actions for 2 turns.

RES

"Truth Broadcast" — Force one state to flip control immediately.
