Rules for Horde:

• The Horde has no player, it pilots itself.
• Any choice The Horde must make should be made as randomly as possible.
• The Horde has an infinite amount of mana at all times.
• The Horde's turn starts by revealing cards from the top of its library until a non-token card is revealed. All revealed tokens are then cast. The revealed non-token is cast. Then, if applicable, The Horde casts any cards that can be cast from its graveyard as well as any cards it has in its hand.
• All creatures controlled by The Horde have Haste and "This creature must attack each turn if able."
• The Horde has no life total. Damage dealt to The Horde causes that many cards from the top of The Horde's library to be put into its graveyard.

Rules for Survivors:

• The Survivors have three turns to set their defenses before The Horde gets its first turn. Then turns alternate like normal.
• Like in Two-Headed Giant, The Survivors are a team and all take their turn simultaneously. The Survivors attack and block as a team.
• Each Survivor contributes 20 life to the group life total.

   • When tokens are returned to the hordes hands they are not destroyed ("custom horde" token rules)
4. Extremely Hard:
   • tokens DO generate other tokens
   • any card text that would benefit the hordes creatures are Always payed (in effect)
   • When tokens are returned to the hordes hands they are not destroyed ("custom horde" token rules)

Adjusting the Difficulty of the Horde:

• Depending upon the number of players and/or the type of decks being used by The Survivors, it may be necessary to adjust some of the aspects of the game in order to set the difficulty of the game to a preferable level. The following are ways to adjust the difficulty and power level of The Horde:

• Adjust the number of turns in which The Survivors have to prepare.

• Adjust the amount of life each of The Survivors contributes to the team.
• Exile a random portion of the Horde Deck prior to the first turn.
• Card Selection during Horde Deck deck construction and/or a sideboard.
• Replace random choices by The Horde with consensus decisions by The Survivors.
• Allow tokens to remain in the graveyard instead of ceasing to exist.
• Allow or disallow The Survivors to attack The Horde during their set-up turns.
• Adjust the token to non-token ratio.
