Grimslingers: Advanced Duels is a micro-version of Grlimslingers, a strategic sci-fi western fantasy epic, and features a taste of both the versus and solo/co-op game modes. In Advanced Duels, players will face off using the elements and special spells called signatures to outthink, outwit, and outmaneuver their opponent. Players may then go solo or join with a friend to face a simulation of the legendary "Witch King", which will test them like no foe ever has before.

Pretty simple and stripped down...a good place to learn the basics of the game. Next to try the cooperative battle!

I was hoping that Grimslingers: Advanced Duels would be a step up from Dragon Punch without bringing in the full complexity of Exceed, but there's so many usability problems in Grimslingers. See my comment on the core game for more info. Note that Advanced Duels fixes all of the problems with Duels. The original Duels thought of itself as a 7th and 8th player expansion, so it included an extra set of base spells and all the necessary targeting cards for an 8-player multiplayer environment. Advanced Duels thinks of itself as a standalone microgame. It features signature spells that Duels lacked (but no targeting cards). It also loses the blackjack minigame from the first edition. It also features a bonus co-op fight.

See my detailed comments and rating justifications to the base game which are based on additonal components and replacement rules from the Northern Territory expansion and booster packs.
