Dark Age is an out-of-print collectible card game by (FPG), originally released in July 1996.[1] The game shared themes with the Mad Max franchise and featured work from artists such as Gerald Brom and Tim Bradstreet.[1]
FPG intended for Dark Age to be released as three compatible stand-alone games.[2] The first stand-alone set titled Feudal Lords contained 231 cards, and was sold in 65-card starter decks and 10-card booster packs.[1][2] Two promo cards were also available.[1] The second stand-alone set, called The Brood, was planned to be released in October 1996 with 225 cards, but never entered production.[1][2] The Brood had artists returning from Feudal Lords, and was focused on growth numbers used to increase a Brooder's size (a Brooder was a genetically engineered creature run amok).[3]
A third expansion was scheduled for a 1997 release, but also never made it to production.[2]
