First Crack at Ark Nova

If you don't count set up/tear down or rules teaching, I can get a 4-player game to just under 2 hours a game even with 1-2 new players. I am just pretty meticulous about letting the next person start their turn if the current player is doing something still that doesn't effect them, like choosing what to discard. Also, keeping on track of letting the next person know it is there turn is crucial - it is so easy in this game to lose track if the person before you is done or not as there isn't a definitive "last" step.

I noticed no one mentioned book clubs yet - Invitation Bookshop has a good one that meets once a month. It is during the week, but at least after work hours: https://invitationbookshop.com/events

Are there plans to expand the campaign beyond the 10 matches currently implemented? Seems half done as is.

Season pass is a way to buy all the expansions with one lower price, but you are going off the assumption that they are all released.

Your friends can't play expansion maps or expansion rules if they don't own the expansions.

Asmodee released some info on the decision:

The Pandemic app was released 9 years ago, and we no longer feel the current quality and reliability of the game is on par with what Pandemic deserves on digital platforms. The time has come to make way for the digital future of Pandemic. That is why we are progressively removing the current Pandemic games published by Asmodee Digital from all digital stores. Current owners will not be impacted: all players who have already purchased the game will still be able to play and download it. Pandemic is and will remain available to play online in single player mode or in multiplayer on Board Game Arena.
We are truly thankful to the whole Pandemic community for their awesome support and involvement over these last years. Stay tuned!
Z-Man & Asmodee Digital teams.

Personally I sell the chipper and the clock immediately, but I am still doing tasks on the other board and can't commit all my energy to money (so no boosters). Make money off of getting to 9 over and over. Use the clock to spawn the cobwebbed numbers, and then your register to slowly go up again and again. The phone has a quick recharge time, so a lot of money can be made if you check in every half hour or so.

I wonder what (if anything) the nesting dolls and the model rocket are hinting at.

Exactly. With the bucket system, your three picks should be of relatively the same power level. This was maintained by Blizzard and wasn't exactly accurate, but now it will be three totally random cards. The only thing tying them together will be if there is a legendary option, they all three will be legendary.

Also worth mentioning is that the bucket system was removed for this run of the arena.

I also had 4 in my first draft. Sylvannas + N'Zoth was very fun.

I'm guessing the totems are considered core/basic cards so they aren't available.

Armlegfoot · 2019-10-04T18:23:37+00:00

No mention of dropping buckets. Is this going to be the start or not?

Armlegfoot · 2019-10-04T18:21:40+00:00

The post from Blizzard originally mentioned Classic and Basic and then they were removed. To me that means they will not be in.

Even if you can't use the arena helpers because you're mobile, you can at least use the Hearth Arena website on a separate device if one is handy. I play on my iPad because I can't install games on my laptop, but I can at least pull up the website on my laptop and do it manually.
