the first time we played i thought i had a solid strategy of snatching up all the churches i could. (cloisters or whatever they call them) not realizing how many gaps there would be in the board at game's end. i didn't get a single church "completed". my kids spend pretty much the whole game building tiny "insta-cities" and fighting over roads. they trounced me solidly. not so clever after all.
I had the mobile version before we got the actual game, so I'd had some practice. We've played four or five times and she's come close before, but never won. She was pretty happy tonight.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
surprisingly cool game. we got a copy for christmas.
ReplyDelete"Surprisingly cool" is a good way to put it.
