The Ancients, green front side pieces, are original members of the forces of good and are The Shattered Lands' first inhabitants. It would appear, from the rule book, that Sir Urgwaine, a powerful Paladin, is their leader. They are known for being chivalrous, and for singing songs and telling tales, but they are also ferocious warriors. They are represented by mostly Paladins, Clerics, and Wizards of the Grand Temple. The Valorians are gold front-side pieces and original members of the forces of good. In the rule book, they are also referred to as Landor's Legions. The Forces of Good are placed on beige back-sided pieces. When playing the game, one player chooses the forces of good, the other chooses the forces of evil. There are six armies in Legends, divided into two teams. For this reason, the pieces are "shuffled", and set up randomly, as are the terrain spaces. In Legends, an army could become nearly invincible if a player were allowed to set up as they wanted (because all pieces have special powers). Stratego allows players to set up their army any way they want.In Legends, all pieces have some kind of special power. In the original game, only the Spy, the Scouts, and the Miners have special powers.In Legends, there are many kinds of terrain, which may affect the strength of a piece.In Legends, only the attacker moves, and only if it attacks successfully. In the original Stratego, a piece moves regardless of whether or not it attacked.(Like the Spy from Stratego, 1s destroy only 10s and sometimes 9s) An assembled army for Legends is as follows: Unlike Stratego, where a piece's strength is better when the number is lower, Legends assigns greater strength to the higher numbers. When a piece attacks a Magic piece, the magic piece is destroyed, and its corresponding magic ability is activated. In Legends, there are also Magic pieces, which act as the equivalent of Bombs in the original game. In the event of a tie, both pieces are removed from play. If a piece moves into a space occupied by another piece, a battle occurs, with the piece with the higher number emerging as the victor. Players take turns performing actions until one player emerges victorious. The gameplay mechanics of Legends closely resemble those of the original Stratego. The game is won when an opponent is unable to move any pieces. The goal is to destroy the opponent's castle, similar to capturing a flag in the original game. The battles that followed are played out in the game Stratego: Legends. Both good and evil had new, stronger allies. The Qa'ans had brought down The Divide, so the Celestia allied against the Qa'ans, and extended an alliance to the forces of good. However, true to their word, the Celestia returned. When it was determined that The Divide was down, the leaders of the Valorians and the Ancients prepared for war. The Gargans and Manes accepted, and the Qa'ans ended The Divide. They promised the forces of evil that they would destroy The Divide and fight alongside their new allies if they received a piece of the land that would be conquered. The Qa'ans dwelled deep underground, where they had developed new kinds of magic. Eventually, the Gargans and the Manes discovered a new race, the Qa'ans. After their vow, the Celestia vanished and were not seen again. Neither army wanted to do so, after witnessing the creation of The Divide. The Celestia swore that if anyone brought down The Divide and restarted the wars, they would fight against the Celestia in the new wars. According to the official rule book, The Divide "could not be flown over, dug under, gone around, or forced through." With no way to reach the other, the Valorians and Ancients ceased the wars against the Gargans and Manes. The Divide was positioned so that the lands held by the forces of good were isolated from the forces of evil. The forces of good and the forces of evil waged constant war against each other for decades, until one day, a mythical group of creatures called the "Celestia" used their magical powers to form a barrier called The Divide. The Manes and the Gargans also had an alliance and used their powers for evil. The backstory of Legends is as follows: The Valorians and the Ancients had an alliance and used their powers for good.
