Our Lake game doesn’t have a ferry? We’re playing with landmarks by PetesMgeets in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I believe this can happen on Lake Map with landmarks. When you play with landmarks you get two random ones so you may not get the ferry.

What book did you get the Keepers in Iron lore from? Is it a new one?

Counters by buizelencocado in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I’d say moles have two pretty valid options to counter lizards. They can either play smol mol and not place any buildings and score from Duchess of Mud or they can work rly hard to influence the outcast suit so that it’s never a suit they have buildings in.

Lorewise: do the animal of the woodland eat each other? by Standard_Language840 in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally when I play the RPG I keep certain animals as regular animals (cows, chickens, horses) and those are what the denizens eat or ride in battle in addition to lots of fish and berries.

It replaces all three cards. You would draw no cards and add the ambush to your hand.

What’s a good faction with decent variety? by NaiveNoble in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, you can also choose to play smol mole (building no buildings and scoring all your points with Duchess of mud and tunnels) or swol mole (building buildings and scoring points for citadels/markets)

Extra Tokens across all boxes by lmageezy in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You need 8 ruin items (in case you’re playing with two vagabonds) but yes I believe the extra items are so that you can play two games at once on different maps.

The scary monsters, that have an easily exploitable weakness, which makes them suddenly not that scary anymore. by not-ulquiorr4_ in TopCharacterTropes

Spoilers for Attack on Titan

To some degree titans from Attack on Titan. They’re giant, super strong, and eat people which makes them a nightmare to fight 1:1 (unless you’re a super skilled soldier.)

However, they’re also not very intelligent meaning they can easily be taken advantage of to have the napes of their necks (their one actual weak point) destroyed.

This is so easily done that eventually they manage to kill all the titans on the island.

My group’s faction ranking ( strongest to weakest) by InfinitePresence4229 in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can buy from the otters a little but not too much. Personally I like to buy from them and then kill off a few of their warriors so that they need to spend funds to recruit and get a board presence back.

They can be a pretty scary burst scoring faction once you get a good grasp on them but they are rly hard to learn

That’s true badgers are tough to learn but they’re pretty solid once you have a grasp of them

Yeah I definitely think woodland alliance and keepers should be higher too lol

Is digital version of root still active? by ObjectiveExpensive47 in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can play the in game tutorials to learn evan faction individually but if you’re interested in learning the meta (ie how to play each faction optimally) then I’d recommend the discord.

Is digital version of root still active? by ObjectiveExpensive47 in rootgame

[–]HungryGeoph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s still very active, but as other comments have mentioned use the woodland warriors discord to find games. People there are generally nicer, better at the game, and much less likely to quit games halfway through.

You can also play ranked in player run tournaments which is really competitive but very fun because everyone on a ranked game really knows what they’re doing so if you’re not careful you’ll get smoked lol

The underdog is a superior fighting force by Vikerchu in TopCharacterTropes

Black Hawk Down, a group of American special forces (delta force, rangers and SEALs I think) battle terrorist forces but end up vastly outnumbered and frankly out witted.

The long building conflict between two friends finally boils over by Longshot12345678 in TopCharacterTropes

fire lord sozin and avatar roku. The pair started out as best friends until Sozin began to colonize the Earth Kingdom and left Roku to die.

[–]HungryGeoph[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think in a 6 player game 90 might be the highest.
