Hi,I have played over 20 games of runewars and the only thing that bothers me with this game is that gaining runes doesn't give the player any bonuses. Aren't they supposed to be the source of magic in Terrinoth ?
So to make runes useful, I created this variant:
1/ the game is played in epic mode. No rules ares changed except the ones concerning runes .
2/When you gain a dragon rune, you may place it in one of your areas. The rune is placed faceup or facedown.
3/For each facedown runes a player controls, he gains one fake rune. The fake rune is placed on one of the units of that player's faction sheet. When drawing cards for that unit during a battle, the player may draw then discard a number extra cards equal the amount of fake runes on that unit.

4/As secondary ability of spring, each player gains a aùount of influence equal to the number of faceup rune in areas he controls.

5/When a player conquers a area containing a dragon rune, that player may change the state of that rune (put it faceup or facedown. If there is a facedown rune in that area, the player previously controlling that area must discard a fake rune from his faction sheet.
Hope you enjoy this variant
