Root faction randomizer
Want a quick way to set up balanced Root games? This faction randomizer uses the official reach scores from the rulebook—the ones showing how much each faction can shake things up on the map. Big factions like Cats or Eyrie have higher reach, shaping the whole forest, while sneakier factions like Lizards rely on reacting and adapting.
Just pick your player count, and the randomizer spits out faction combos matching the recommended total reach. It’s an easy way to keep your games balanced, or at least as balanced as Root can be (everyone still needs to police everyone else).
