by mrscaredycat Go-get the paints out!! I'm a complete beginner too and have of course learned a lot watching YT videos, skipping past the ones that insist on shouting and cavorting as they try to 'become a character'.... The very best ones I've found and watch a LOT are 1) Duncan Rhodes and 2) Rob's Tabletop World in no particular order.These 2 are superbly well versed in painting miniatures and present and demonstrate in such an easy-to-watch and understand way that it's probably impossible not to learn from their excellent videos - I've learned and am still learning a huge amount from them and a few others, but these 2 are way-ahead for me.....

by mic_al OK, let me start by saying that I don't often post variants and I'm usually quite skeptical of them.The thing is that I've been going over the core gameplay loop of Hamlet (with and without the expansion) in my mind. (At least as it has played out in my groups.)Generally speaking, the game promises multiple strategies to win, but I think that the more dominant strategies tend to rule the landscape and can make the game a bit samey.It always starts with grinding for money to buy workers; to increase action economy. Then, what tends to happen is that landmark tiles, long paths, and repeated use of your own refined materials, tends to carry the day with higher scores than contributing to sales and church building.The lake expansion offers a lot of promise: A way to bypass the donkey logistics chain, and incentive to build lakes (VPs for every two lake tiles) and fishing op

by Zouave It's my Burning House Game, and I've been playing it non-stop for about a week. I love the mechanics and the ability to create either themed match-ups (e.g. Daredevil Punisher and Jessica Jones vs Kingpin a la Daredevil: Born Again Season 2) or infinitely random ones using a randomizer (I like this one: https://www.legendaryleagues.com/randomizer).I just finished a session that saw Bishop, Ms. Marvel and Wasp take down King Hyperion and his scheme to Brainwash the Military. As I'm typing this, I just rolled up a new one for this afternoon: Fin Fang Foom (Epic) trying to Breach the Nexus of All Realities. Trying to stop him will be Banshee, Black Swan and Captain America, Secret Avenger.FYI, Upper Deck are coming out soon with a new edition of the core set which will have new art an

That’s not news and has been said more than once before.If by "before it even started" you mean long before the campaign began when most people didn't even know it was coming, then sure. But show me a time after the campaign started and people who didn't really know what it was started backing it when they specifically said that it is "not a legacy game." Just saying it is a "campaign" game doesn't count because legacy games are also campaign games.Again, as I've said in previous comments, this is not just about what does or does not constitute a "legacy" game. This is about the fact that the creators themselves are putting themselves into their own bind by not being fully open and clear

by thrr What are you talking about here???This was clarified even before the campaign was launched!cragatz wrote:Yay! The creators finally came out and officially clarified that this is not a "legacy" game. It only took them until the last day of the campaign after people have already pledged without "reading the fine print" and may not realize what it is that they actually pledged for. I just hope enough people realize what the game is so that there isn't a huge amount of backlash against the creators once people receive their copies.

by bobino Serbia has a Serbian unit in the space. As you know, it is an OT key (home space).Now if Russia has an Ally marker on Serbia, does the OT loose a territorial key? Or the alliance with Russia helps them with the Balkans Flashpoint, but OT still controls it (so the territorial key is not affected). The later feels like the proper answer.Sorry, I looked around and did not find a clear answer.Thx, Alex

by djott70 I own Classics and Legends. For myself, I created a spreadsheet to keep track of matches and a goal to win at least one game in that matchup, even if many tries.
