Back on topic though I have been on a big Defenders of the Realm kick. You and 3 other players work together to defend Monarch city from 4 monster generals (orcs, undead, demons, dragons) and their minions. You win the game if you manage to kill all 4 generals, you lose though if Monarch City has 5 minions in it, 12 taint markers are placed on the board, if you 24 of a type of minion are in play, or a general enters monarch city. After every player's turn more minions appear on the board and there is a chance the general can move further along the path to Monarch City.
best shot I could find online for this game was this one:
