遊び方 - 軌跡TRADING CARD GAME

Let's play the game.

Choose one of the following two modes and prepare a deck accordingly.

Open 5 packs of The Trails trading card game, use all 40 cards to build a deck, and play the game.
■How to Build a Deck

A deck has 40 cards opened from 5 packs. You can’t have any other cards in a deck.
You may have any number of cards with the same name and same sub-name in a deck.

Build your own unique deck with the collected Trails TCG cards and play the game.
■How to Build a Deck

A deck has exactly 50 cards.
You can have up to 4 cards with the same name and same sub-name in a deck.

Players begin the game with 40 bond each. When they take damage during the game, they lose bond equal to the damage value. The maximum bond limit is 40, and there is no lower limit, meaning it can fall below 0.

Even if a player's bond falls below 0 during the game, the game continues until the end of the current turn.

At the end of the turn, if your opponent's bond is 0 or less, you win the game. If both player's bonds are 0 or less, compare their bonds; the player with the higher bond wins.

You can use a card by paying its cost. This process of using a card is called “playing” the card.

When played, a UNIT enters the field and engages in combat.

When played, an ITEM enters the field and provides support to its owner and the UNITs they control.

How to Play UNITs and ITEMs

Players can play a UNIT or ITEM from their hand by paying its CP cost. The played card is placed ready and face-up on the field.
UNITs and ITEMs can only be played during their deployment step.
At the beginning of a player deployment step, they gain 1 CP for each card in their homebase. Any CP they have disappears at the end of their deployment step.

Point！ About Arts

Some UNITs have arts. Arts can be played in the same way as an EVENT.

When a player plays a UNIT as an art, they resolve the effect of the art.

Players can’t play arts possessed by UNITs on the field.

When played, resolve the EVENT’s effect.

How to Play EVENTs

Players can play an EVENT by paying its EP cost and putting it into their trail from their hand, or by turning it face up if it is face-down in their homebase.
Players can action a card from their homebase to gain 1 EP. At the end of each phase, any remaining EP disappears.

When played, a BASE affects the entire game as long as it remains in the homebase.

How to Play BASEs

BASEs have a building level instead of a cost.
Players can play a face-down BASE from their homebase by turning it face up, as long as its building level is equal to or less than the number of cards in their homebase.
Example: If a player has 2 cards in their homebase, they can play a BASE with a building level 2 or less.

Point！ Playing cards from the homebase

Cards played from the homebase aren’t put into the trail;

instead, they remain their in current state there.

Greet your opponent before the game.
Randomly select one player, who then decides which player will be the initiative player for the first turn.
Each player shuffles their deck and places it face-down in their Deck Zone.
Draw 4 cards from the top of your deck and put them into your hand.
The initiative player for the first turn may choose any number of cards from their hand, put them on the bottom of their deck, and draw an equal number of replacement cards. This is optional. Then, the non-initiative player for the first turn does the same.
Once both players have finished preparing, the game begins.

The initiative player performs steps Ⅰ to Ⅲ once, and then the non-initiative player performs steps Ⅰ to Ⅲ once. Afterward, the preparation phase ends.

Ⅰ. Draw Step

Draw two cards.

You may put a card face-down and ready into your homebase from your hand. This is optional.

Ⅱ. Homebase Step

Ⅲ. Deployment Step

At the start of the deployment step, you gain 1 CP for each card in your homebase.

You may play any number of UNITs and ITEMs by paying their cost.

At the end of the deployment step, any CP you have disappears.

The initiative player performs steps Ⅰ to Ⅱ once, and then the non-initiative player performs steps Ⅰ to Ⅱ once. This repeats until both players pass consecutively on step Ⅰ. If both players pass consecutively on step Ⅰ, the combat phase ends.

Ⅰ. Propose Attacker Step

Case : The Attack Target is a UNIT

During this combat, the attacker becomes the attacking UNIT, and the attack target UNIT becomes the defending UNIT.
If the attacking UNIT's STR is greater than or equal to the defending UNIT’s DEF, the attacking UNIT stuns the defending UNIT, and if the defending UNIT’s STR is greater than or equal to the attacking UNIT's DEF, the defending UNIT stuns the attacking UNIT.
Whenever a UNIT becomes stunned, the player who owns it loses bond equal to its CP cost. (Stun damage)
If the attacking UNIT‘s STR is greater than the defending UNIT’s DEF and the defending UNIT doesn’t have support, cause overkill. Your opponent lose bond equal to the difference in STR and DEF. (Overkill damage)

Case : The Attack Target is a Player

During this combat, the attacker becomes the attacking UNIT.
Cause overkill. Your opponent loses bond equal to the attacking UNIT’s STR.(Overkill damage)

Choose a UNIT you control as the attacker, then choose a non-stunned UNIT your opponent controls as the attack target. If the attacker can’t attack any UNIT your opponent controls, you may choose your opponent as the attack target instead. If you choose not to attack, you may pass this attack.

Action the attacker and begin attacking the attack target.

Ⅱ. Combat Resolution Step

* If the attack can no longer continue, the attacking player restarts from step Ⅰ. (If any non-stunned attacking UNITs remain on the field, ready them.)

Whenever choosing your UNITs to attack in step Ⅰ, you may choose multiple UNITs with the same organization and attack with them together. This is called a "SCLM attack." During a SCLM attack, the STR of the attacking UNIT, as referred to in step Ⅱ, is the total STR of all UNITs participating in the SCLM attack. When the UNIT being SCLM attacked fights back, the opponent chooses one of the attacking UNITs as the target for the fight-back. Additionally, when the attack target is a UNIT, the attacking UNITs cannot cause overkill while SCLM attacking.

If your opponent's bond is 0 or less, you win the game. If both player's bonds are 0 or less, compare their bonds; the player with the higher bond wins. If both players have the same bond at 0 or less, the non-initiative player for that turn wins the game.

If the game winner isn't determined, each player, starting with the initiative player, may choose a stunned UNIT on their field and cure it. At this time, they may choose not to cure any UNIT.

Then, both players put all stunned UNITs they control into their trail, ready all cards from their field and homebase, and the cure phase ends.

After the cure phase ends, switch the initiative player and begin the next turn.

1. Playing EVENTs, Arts (UNITs), and BASEs

2. Playing Crafts

Crafts written as "▪(Cost): (Text)" can be played by paying the cost.

3. SCLM Supporting

Target UNIT you control has support by actioning with another UNIT you control that belongs to the same organization during this turn. This is called "SCLM Support“. When SCLM Supporting, if the targeted UNIT has 【Covert】, another UNIT must also have 【Covert】.

4. Gaining EP

Action a card from your homebase to gain 1 EP. At the end of each phase, any remaining EP disappears.
