The Faction Game or Conflict Turn is played by Austin, Jack and Art during PALISADE. It focuses on the largest factions of Palisade making moves against each other between the missions of the Blue Channel. It is played in Armour Astir: Advent using the game's conflict turn rules.
Each players heads one of the major divisions of the Authority (the Divine Principality) on-planet as they attempt to further their incursion of Palisade and eventually move into the Twilight Mirage. However, they also play factions of the Cause fighting to stop them, as well as certain Wayward factions. Armour Astir's scene minigames highlight specific moments and characters. Everyone is free to create new characters and play in scenes for any group.
