What do you mean by face up/face down cards? #GenConTired Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide shot selection! Scaper of the Week #17 How to get to Skyknight's house: Drive to the red light, then call him. |

You had a couple players with secret objectives to hoard fuel Used fuel to move and avoid exposure (thus not having them in their hands) Face up objective cards = Crisis cards requiring fuel (likely one fuel card for each non-exiled player).

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
As I continue to enjoy the virtual GenCon experience, even though I'm not there, for which GenCon release games have I been able to download the brand new rules?
1. Quartermaster General This is the only game so far that will be an automatic buy for me that I didn't know about at all beforehand. It looks quite fun, even though it manages to shorten a strategic WWII simulation for 2-6 players down to 1 1/2--2 hours. Its got an innovative card play system, so its not just Axis and Allies Lite. 2. Firefly: Blue Sun Rim Space Expansion Oh yeah! Lots of fun things, some of which seem to offer new play styles, like cortexing money around the board! A board extension offers a whole new realm of The Verse, and Mr. Universe's Big Damn Challenges are the answer to those who have recruited the 'perfect crew' and think they've broken the game. The other new contact, Lord Harrow, may make a Legal strategy finally viable! Three new scenarios appear with new crew, gear, a ship upgrade, and jobs. And as the movie license appears in our next exciting chapter, more Reavers are gathering around Planet Miranda with new rules to spread terror through the game!!!

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Played Drakon with my youngest boys (twins). We had a good game & I was surprised at how well they learned it.
Also played my just received KS copy of Krash Karts & it is quite enjoyable. It's like a Mario Kart board game & there is quite a bit of interactivity with players causing lots of "ha, I stopped you!" moments. The rules weren't completely understandable on how to play from the start, but they are quite descriptive, so they probably just need a run-through example to help get you going. The component quality isn't great with almost the whole thing being made of 180gsm (my guesstimate) cardboard. That's the markers, character cards, kart cards & laying tiles. The cards for the characters & karts are a little dark & could do with a greater contrast on the dark end of the curve. However the karts are molded plastic & are very good. It plays in around 20-30 minutes so it's a good fun filler game & definitely one to play with kids that have limited attention spans. We all enjoyed & I am sure we will play again.

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Yeah Rym, it certainly does look cool and I'm sure there will be a few copies of it in my group when it comes out
Just saw this picture on my group's FB page. One of the guys in my group (Zack, the guy on the right with the glasses looking at the camera) got to play Dead of Winter with the Shut Up and Sit Down crew and Jon Gilmour the game's designer taught it and took the picture. Those guys from Shut Up and Sit Down are freakin' awesomely funny and it must have been a blast!

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Imperial Assault looks fantastic.
Finally played Dead of Winter yesterday over lunch (lready had it set-up so we could jump right in). Made quite a few mistakes in a Survive objective loss. Still fantastic and can't wait to play with 4 or 5 people. Played another game of Spurs last night with newly painted wooden "bullets" (much better feel than the cardboard bullets). Another game, another loss. Still good fun. @akden picked up the Gambler expansion for me at Gencon, so that should add to the fun. Praise be to akden for single-handedly making everything else I buy for my daughter's birthday in a few weeks meaningless. |
