I just bought the game a couple days ago. So far so good. I'm sure I'll have several questions but after playing a game, this one question is haunting me.

If I buy a sword or an axe or any of the purchase cards, what happens to them if I use them. For instance, if I want to use the sword in a battle against another player to add 1 strength. Do I lose the sword when that battle is over? Or do I keep it?

Thanks

Welcome

You keep the Sword/Axe after you use it and can use it in as many battles as you like. Just remember that you can only use 1 weapon at a time! (unless you have an ability that tells you otherwise)

Excellent. Thanks. Off to play game two. More questions to follow

Items, for the most part are permanent, until someone steals it! But there are potions and certain items which are one time use. Spells are a 1 time use though.

Sorry for going a bit off-topic here.

But just out of curiosity since we all have our own opinions, but what is the greatest board game ever?

RoboRally! Woot!

Roborally can do one!

Snakes and ladders all the way
