Summary
Sinister Cults are attempting to awaken their Elder Gods. If they succeed, it will plunge the world into endless darkness. But awakening a god is not easy and requires many Minions to perform the ritual. This is the one advantage you have against them. By attacking these Cults, you can prevent them from gathering the strength they need. Each turn, you will draw cards from the Cult Deck to represent their gathering forces. You must lead attacks against the Cults of Cthulhu, Arwassa, Chaugnar Faugn, and Yog-Sothoth to reduce their numbers and prevent them from gathering enough strength to summon their specific Elder God. If you fail to hold back the vile forces, our world is doomed.
