Visual sourcing

Wallguards editorial illustrations

These are Crosspad Gaming editorial illustrations, not official game imagery, components, screenshots, historical reconstructions, or evidence of firsthand gameplay.

The cover is a conceptual four-lane scene. The revised diagram shows one qualifying Battlefield leading to its defense assessment, with separate victory and defeat outcomes. It does not depict the real game board or specify strength calculations or additional timing rules.

Crosspad created both images with AI-assisted generation from text-only prompts, without reference images or official game media. The diagram was newly generated on September 24, 2026; the existing cover is unchanged. The earlier diagram is retained in the original creation record.

The factual basis is the cited reporting, not these pictures. Each SHA-256 identifies the exact published illustration bytes for independent editorial review. This creation record does not itself approve or publish an accompanying news article.
