Set Up
Heroes
An example of how one might set up their Ranger play area.
- Players will choose which rangers they want to play as from a pool of their choosing. Upon deciding, they will take the corresponding Ranger Figures, Character Cards, decks and Zord cards. Players will also choose a Megazord card for their game.
- Ranger Character cards are placed in front of their respective players. The Ranger decks are shuffled and each player can draw up to 5 cards from their respective decks, making sure to leave room for a discard pile.
- Each player gets 2 Actioin Tokens and 1 Energy Token.
Villains
- Players will decide which 2 Foot Soldiers, 2 Monsters/Nemeses, and ONE boss they will face from a pool of their choosing. Upon deciding, they will then take the corresponding deployment and enemy cards.
- The two Foot Soldier deployment decks will be shuffled together, and then split into 4 different stacks of 5 cards.
- Take the two Monster/Nemesis deployment cards; place one in Stack 2, and the other in Stack 3. Place the Boss deployment card in Stack 4.
- Shuffle Stacks 2, 3 and 4 separately, being sure not to mix them together. Players will then place Stack 1 on top of Stack 2, then on Stack 3
Game Board & Supply
- Players will choose One Command Center. They will then choose 4 outer locations based on the Foot Soldiers selected earlier.
- The outer locations will randomly be placed around the Command Center.
- All chosen Ranger Figures will be placed in the Command Center location, along with 3 energy tokens. These energy tokens represent the “lives” the Rangers have remaining.
Power Board
- The Power Board will be placed somewhere that is visible to all players.
- The 5 Zord cards are shuffled and placed in a pile. The Megazord card is placed on the bottom of the pile.
- Place the Zord deck in the appropriate area on the board, and put the Megazord token close by.
- Set the Power Marker on the “0” space of the Power Track.
