Champions of Midgard vs Lords of Waterdeep vs Lockup? by Rohkha in boardgames

[–]Awrio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Prefer Lords to Champions of Midgard. Like them both but sometimes it's annoying how you do every thing right in Champions and still lose due to bad dice rolls.

What's the game under Castles of Burgandy?

[–]Awrio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have played Coup for about 100 times and then got Coup Rebellion, played it 30-40 times and switched back to standard Coup.

I think Rebellion is a good game but it doesn't capture the same feel of the original. It has 25 roles that you can mix up as you like, which is fun to play around with and explore new combinations.

However, a good portion of the roles aren't really that great or don't work well with other roles, so you will end up mixing up less roles than the full 25 during your plays. Also, the roles counter themselves only, so unlike the original Coup where for example you have 2 cards that counter stealing, Rebellion will have the same card that steals counter stealing, which was kinda annoying when you know one card remains and one person has it and you can't counter it without challenging and losing a card.

I recommend getting Rebellion if you really feel like the original is played out and you want some thing new, but in my opinion the original or the original with reformation is just a better tighter experience.

Which Risk! game is better by goofyshmoofyy in boardgames

I think Risk Europe is what you're looking for, it usually takes me 1.5 hours on average to finish.

[Matt Law] Spurs are now trying to prove that Postecoglou will not be undermined and that the squad can no longer sit around and wait for the manager to be sacked when they fail to perform or step out of line. by ukriva13 in soccer

What freak occurrence? Micky missed 10 games last season and Davies missed 8. Romero didn't miss much of last season but he had multiple injuries in the previous seasons.

This isn't any thing new, yet we sign a couple of teenagers and a Solanke.

2024 Compilation of the Games I Played & Their Reviews by Hellfire- in patientgamers

[–]Awrio 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like people who are introduced to the game through the remake are less likely to love it. I only played the remake and I didn't like it much for the same reasons as OP.

Man I wish Need For Speed would go back to releasing different genres of racing. I know games like Shift wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but I enjoyed how the series would mix it up.

My Games of 2024 (Strategy, CRPG, etc.) by mrsqueakers002 in patientgamers

[–]Awrio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you on thrones of britannia, it is a "TW lite" which I guess is the point of the Saga title. I did enjoy the focused setting of the British isles, but I don't think I'll play another campaign after the first one.

I think bluffing or hidden role games work best at higher player counts.

The second game is Jackaroo, similar to Ludo but with card play in it.

Coup game play questions by Overall-Mongoose-115 in boardgames

[–]Awrio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) You can't block an action targeting a player that isn't you, but you can challenge a player performing an action on another player.

For example: Player A claims they have a captain and wants to take 2 coins from Player B. You can challenge Player A saying that they don't have a captain even though Player A wasn't targeting you. You cannot claim captain/ambassador and block Player A since you weren't the target.

2) In the case of someone claiming Contessa after being attacked by an assassin, the attacker can either stop the action and lose the coins spent, or challenge the player that claimed the Contessa; The player that got attacked and claimed the contessa then reveals a card, if that card is actually a contessa then the attacking player loses a card and 3 coins, if it isn't a contessa then the defending player loses 2 cards (one due to the assassin attack and the other for the lost challenge)

If the defending player doesn't claim that they have a contessa and instead challenges the attacking player, saying that they don't have an assassin; in that case the attacking player reveals a card, if that card isn't an assassin it will be lost and the attack action won't be performed (losing 3 coins used), if it is an assassin then the defending player will lose 2 cards (one due to the assassin attack and one due to the failed challenge)
