The OUT³ Card System

OUT³ is played with a 158-card deck, made up of four card families: Dynasty, Resource, Military and Action.

Dynasty cards

21 cards across the six Dynasties, plus Wild Dynasty cards that can substitute for any one card in a Dynasty set. Collecting three matching cards - naturals or a Wild - completes a set.

Resource cards

52 cards across Food, Wood, Gold and Iron. Laid down for free, and exchangeable three-for-one for a resource of your choice from the shared discard pile.

Action cards

49 cards that create one-time effects - strengthening your own position or disrupting an opponent's. Emperor Aurangzeb is an Action card that can steal an opponent's entire completed Dynasty set when its effect resolves legally.

Military cards

36 cards across Infantry, Archers, Cavalry and Wall Fortification. Deployed face-up on the table, then used to declare an attack on a later turn.

158 cards, one authoritative deck

21 Dynasty + 52 Resource + 49 Action + 36 Military = 158 cards, shuffled together to form the Draw Pile at the start of every match. Two additional Reference cards exist only as an in-game help screen, not as cards you draw or hold.
