Quick answer
Open the Marvel Dice Masters: Avengers Infinity Campaign Box, organize the dice and cards by team, choose a campaign chapter, and follow the cooperative rules to defeat Thanos and his forces.
What makes the campaign box different from standard Dice Masters
Unlike head-to-head play, the Avengers Infinity Campaign Box introduces cooperative and solo rules. You and up to three other players work together against a villain team controlled by the game itself. This changes how you build teams and manage resources because you're not trying to outscore an opponent but survive and complete objectives.
Choosing your campaign chapter
The box includes multiple campaign chapters that form a story arc. Each chapter has different victory conditions and enemy lineups. For your first game, start with Chapter 1: The Search for the Infinity Stones. It has simpler enemy behavior and fewer special rules, making it ideal for learning the campaign flow.
Step-by-step setup guide
- Unbox and sort the components: Open the box and separate the dice by color (hero dice vs villain dice). Sort the cards into hero character cards, villain character cards, basic action cards, and campaign-specific cards. Place the campaign rulebook and chapter booklet aside. Keep the villain dice and cards in a separate pile — you won't use them for your team.
- Choose your hero team: Each player selects 4 to 8 hero character cards from the hero pool. Build a balanced team with a mix of attackers, defenders, and support characters. Remember that in campaign mode, you'll face multiple waves of enemies, so include cards that generate extra dice or provide healing. Don't overload your team with high-cost characters — you need affordable options to respond quickly to enemy attacks.
- Set up the villain team: Follow the chapter booklet to place the villain character cards and their corresponding dice into the villain bag. Some chapters also include special villain basic action cards. Shuffle the villain bag thoroughly so the order of drawn dice is random. Check if the chapter has a 'boss' villain with unique rules — those often require extra tokens or a separate tracking card.
- Prepare the campaign board and tokens: Place the campaign board (or a simple tracking sheet) in the center. Set aside the Infinity Stone tokens, health trackers, and any chapter-specific tokens like 'Thanos's Wrath' or 'Stone Fragment' tokens. Each player takes a health tracker and sets it to 20 life. If you're playing solo, use the solo variant rules in the booklet — they adjust enemy difficulty and victory conditions.
- Read the chapter objectives aloud: Before starting, read the current chapter's victory conditions and special rules to all players. Some chapters require you to collect a certain number of Infinity Stones, while others demand you defeat a specific villain. Make sure everyone understands the win condition and any turn limits. Misunderstanding the objective is the most common mistake — confirm each player knows what they're working toward.
- Begin the first round: Each player rolls their starting dice (usually 2-4 basic action dice) and places them in their reserve pool. The first player (determined by dice roll or agreement) takes their turn following standard Dice Masters rules, then the villain team takes its turn automatically based on the chapter's AI instructions. In campaign mode, the villain team acts after every player's turn, not after all players — so plan your moves knowing the enemy will respond immediately.
