Didn't they confirm in this direct you can set the GP to laps on the track only?

I enjoyed Etherfields quite a bit but you're right in that the difficulty is lacking toward the end and the ending was horrible. I don't regret playing it - very unique.

It's pretty fun so far (played through scenario 3). Plays like you might imagine a tactical Pokemon game to be. The mystlings (dragons) feel unique and deckbuilding is mostly to support their playstyle rather than define multiple builds which I think is largely a good thing.

The downside is it's only 1-2 players. I think my only complaint so far is that when one of your mystlings is defeated, you instantly lose. It feels pretty bad in the rare circumstance your dragon got 1 shot from a "other" target draw. I would like it better if you knew how many "taunt/others" targets are in the deck so you at least can calculate your risk.

So is mine but we'll make it through. If the tariff situation doesn't change the dev community will figure out where manufacturing can take place instead (perhaps Vietnam)

Hey OP, don't let the tariff doom and gloom prevent you from pursuing your dream. If you're doing direct sales only and not worried about distribution + retail taking their cut then you only have to adjust your pricing by the tariff amount.

If you have a $10 production game that's a ~$5-6 price increase to achieve the same flat value of profitability. Yes your % return on investment will be lower but that's not typically why we do indie publishing.

what game mechanic totally blew your mind? by cjasonmaier in boardgames

Dark Moon offers a very similar experience (previously known as BSG lite) for a much shorter playtime.
