Our take on Sentinels of Freedom
Rather than keeping every character’s actions inside a fixed turn, battles can include coordinated and triggered responses from other heroes. Freeform movement and initiative swaps also make positioning and activation order part of the tactical structure.
What is Sentinels of Freedom?
Sentinels of Freedom is a turn-based strategy game set in the Sentinel Comics universe.
Its campaign follows a team of heroes as a bank heist reveals a larger threat, with missions divided into smaller engagements featuring different objectives, enemies, and choices about where to go next. Players create a hero by choosing a backstory, personality, power source, abilities, and costume, then develop that character between missions. Battles use freeform movement, initiative-based turn order, and actions that can trigger responses from other characters. Squad members can coordinate attacks or react to events such as an enemy moving through their line of sight. Environments include objectives, interactions, and dangers, while team selection expands as heroes become available during the campaign.
