We're playing games all day instead of watching the game everyone else is watching. I died of dysentery.

How is that game?
ReplyDeleteAn Oregon Trail board game? 😮
ReplyDeletecard game, but yeah.
ReplyDeleteit plays well.
There's no provision for taking out some of the insta-death cards with fewer players, so we didn't come close. I think you need to remove some if you don't have six players.
ReplyDeleteMaybe leave them, but make a "half-dead" rule? I don't know how many cards there are, but you could make it a bit more tense with people seeing that they're close to dying, "Just one more card and I'm out!"
ReplyDeleteI expected some Blood Bowl pictures.
ReplyDeleteyou're supposed to build a whole team of 6 characters, regardless of number of players.
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh....
ReplyDeletePlot twist!
ReplyDeleteI have it, and don't recall ever reading the rules to play with all six. In fact, the rules are very poorly written. Otherwise it's a fun game.
ReplyDeletemaybe I made that up in my head because of playing the video game?
ReplyDeleteEven if you made it up it's a good house rule.
ReplyDeleteDid I bother going back and reading the rules? No!
ReplyDeleteTrying to think on how it would work out. The way the game is directly written, it's one player per player. Each "death" limits options and supplies and makes the game more tense.
ReplyDeleteI suppose you could use extras like "plot armor" in this case, with the imaginary kids dying in your place whenever the cards would say you bite it.
pretty much all we do is make up all the names and then circle through the players. if any of the characters survive, it's a win, so who draws the cards isn't actually an issue.
ReplyDeleteit's always good to have a character named Butts who dies from Dysentery. Because we're 10.
