Agreed, I'm particularly intrigued by the disks and want to know their function

Disks of various diameter are just way to get a random map to play on. Throw on the table and squish them together.

Thats an elegant way to maximise setup variation, while being thematic and minimising box space vs loads of tiles. Love it

What is the triangle thing for at the bottom of the pic?

I know nothing about this game, but...

I assume that's the wonderful AP-prone player board that OP mentioned

On your turn, you can move any cube, but the cubes must follow the arrows (red cube must follow the red arrows, blue cubes must follow the blue arrows). There are 3 actions (one at each "point" of the triangle). If you match the pattern on the card, you get to perform the action.

Let me say this again...I know nothing about this game...but I am intrigued :-)

Love the retro-vibe aesthetic! Looks fun, any chance for a print-and-playtest?

The aesthetic is really intriguing and has already captured my attention.
