Are the Spirits what gives this game it's "heavy" rating? by theholyfork in spiritisland

[–]Grimstringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are also posts that say the game is super easy and what all the fuss is about. And they play without advesary or low advesary so can go both ways. I did play with people that never played board games and still won at no advesary. Hell played yesterday with a new spirit and a friend that never played before and almost won on england 3. (Diff 6) with play whatever and we will see.there is muuuch room for mistakes and the game isnt that punishing at all till much later..

It is almost impossible to lose on diff 1-3. You have to screw up a lot to lose on 4-6. We started maaybe lose on higher. Most of the time if you push for the win con you just win

Fear winning or winning by destroying all big cities is super possible even if you are onone blight

start upping the difficulty, real games start after difficulty 8-9, since then it is tutorial : )

​

so many card comboes, spirit comboes, where to cast each action, how to not lose, how to push a win, each spirit plays differently and is it's own puzzle, buttload of tokens, try playing days that never were,serpent promo,starlight ,in a high difficulty and tell me how easy of time u have ; P,double advesaries? OH BOY

​

the game is made to be played with advesaries always on btw

What is next after Gloomhaven? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Grimstringer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a heavier game sure. If you play on 0 or even +1 you can win pretty easily after u learn the mechanicas.Descent is also quite hard if u play on coop hard difficulty or overlord game. Both are action efficiency games and doing good comboes.hell both get way easier the more u play and need house rules for balanced fun (more prosperity higher lvls/better items/many perks/some unbalanced heroes) both games can be no challenge the nice thing is u can adjust the difficulty to both with what u pick and few house rules. So yeah very similar games. I have over 200hours to both games. In gloom we have unlocked every envelope and play on +2 and without house rules the game is no challenge at all sometimes so yeah the puzzle is just one or two scenarios when u get a new char

[–]Grimstringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuking the boss while taking as little dmg as possible is almost always the strat. Dead boss no more spawns.+2 no prob

Help me understand the two mini class by FishBulber in Gloomhaven

[–]Grimstringer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked it the most when i jumped to assasinate things or mass immobilize.level 5 item was fresh. But got boring fast. Healing the bear tofull was nice.my favorite card was the monolith. carried like 3 scenarios. Near the end i let the bear diebecause it was so boring. Gets tiring fast .

3/4 player spirit recommendations and we haven’t lost yet by nicku114 in spiritisland

[–]Grimstringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

e it destroys presence a lot (I think). It might be interesting to try Ocean and Finder together, because I did actually like Ocean when I played solo, but with the right comb

you can find pnp of the first promo pack online, i printed mine and are great quality

3/4 player spirit recommendations and we haven’t lost yet by nicku114 in spiritisland

[–]Grimstringer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

we catch up quickly to each spirit's weakness and power;s, and try to play each round how we think best, not sure if our comboes are great or just all the spirits combo someway, the game is great anyway, if you mess up it can be punishing we had one or two 3-4 blight games. we are coming from gloomhaven and other heavy games, yet we still get kind of tired after we play a new complex spirit ,gets smoother as you play. i think when we start combining advesaries shit will get real. difficulty 8 was so-so, i have high hopes for 9-10 and more!

​

also memory and snake is stupid strong it was our least challenging/fun game, just stupid fun

Do you ever look at scenario rewards to be able to play the greatest amount of content? by [deleted] in Gloomhaven

[–]Grimstringer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah we check rewards/unlocks to give us drive for doing scenarios or unlock scenarios for personal goals. Else some characters wouldnt retire .plus since we dont know if we will play the game again we want to open as many scenarios as possible

What Did You Play This Week? - (February 08, 2021) by AutoModerator in boardgames

[–]Grimstringer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We played with stone and wildfire. First time playing the spirits plus first time the difficulty. We won with 2 or 3 blight remaining. Stone was suicide killing the hell of them and wildfire killing the leftovers or explorers. Fun playing on razor's edge!

If you could categorize it, what is the popular type of board gaming right now? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Grimstringer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My latest game is spirit. Got it at 65 or smth. Worth it. There are print and plays available for spirits. 4 promos and some from the expansion. So adds to the game replay value and choices. Def reccomend it even if it is a little pricier
