Units, War Machines and Abilities

The officially revealed cards sort into three roles. Units are the bodies you promote, trade and win with — the rank ladder (recruit to captain to governor) is what makes a unit worth more than its stats. War Machines are the empire's special hardware: cannon that answers walls, guns that answer time. Abilities are the one-shot or standing powers — burns, silences, floods, binds — that shape the match around the bodies. The full 149-card set will be catalogued here as data becomes available after launch.

What Is Officially Known Before Launch

Tughra: Seals of Empire ships with 149 cards across five empires. Before release, the studio has published each empire's playstyle and its signature units and powers — those are the ten entries above, quoted from the official Steam page and the developer's site. Card-by-card stats, Treasure costs and deck-building rules will be documented here as the game reveals them. Nothing on this page is invented: where a detail is not yet official, it says so.
