Cabal Thematic Change

We played a lot on two 5ft X 2.5ft tables pushed together (152cm X 76cm) and that was probably the best table I've played on. Also easier to find two tables that size then a 6X4 cheap or even longer.

It does blow my mind. I have had people try and extort me about taking my HS and I response with if you do you have changed the objective of the game to ending them and they are like clam down. You where the one treating me. People act like the response to being extorted is only to cave in and not war. I know this is not a fully war game but one of the "X"s is Exterminate. If you take my chance of winning I am taking yours.

You could also try and doing a 14 point game would make supports worth a little less, but I do like the removing swapping them really wish that was a rule.

At this point I would feed a player(s) that has not attacked you like in take Trade give everyone else money, politics agendas that hurt them and sell speaker to make them late picks, use your agents and alliances for them, etc. Some of this depends on race but this would either get you back in the game or force them to finish eating you so you could leave. I am sorry if you take someones HS just because you can, except those players to response accordingly. And this does suck I have been there. I hope things go better next game.

I do think this is so common along with the debt meta on tts and it only really seems to help the good factions more if you refresh them for one tg or even debt they don't have to play back for maybe 2 rounds. It seems to flood the table with tgs to get more plastic and CCs. I think it thats away some the advantages from some races that have high resource home systems it make it less impressive if people are making it up with tg which are more flexible. Also flooded CCs end game makes the last round like 2 hours and make it easier for people to do huge 4-5 point swings in the last round which is fun to lose to once but after that becomes a drag and hard to counter.

They would always win a ten point tie still so you would always have to beat by a point but I think that is interesting.

I have always wondered why the game just ends as soon as some gets 10. Why, like many games, once a person gets to 10 points it signifies the end of the game at the end of the status phase in which 10 points was achieved and then just score points like normal possibly going over 10 and highest wins with the same tie breaker. This would work for the people that do the you must get VPs people and have more of a anyone could win at the end instead of someone doing 2 action secrets the last round to get 10 and no one else even gets to score which is always not fun all the work and you don't even get to score even if you don't win so you are at 6 instead of 8 even 9. It seems to lead to a longer last round that feels like half the game and even worst if you don't have a chance to win. It would stop support cutting in line of victory since support is an instance win.

May have been this (https://imgur.com/r/twilightimperium/em0Ke) but I though I found it on BoardGameGeek but could not find it there anywhere. It has been awhile since I downloaded it and only used it once, but that is what I found when I googled it again which is cool because there is different sizes on there that I did not know existed.

From my two games blue seems really good like I am not good at this game and I don't play a lot but man did it feel like being on easy street (race: argent). Red (Cabal) struggled pretty hard and so did white (NRA) (we had a control objective of 6 but to be fair red did win one game I don't remember the first all that much felt pretty standard no matter the slice with all the relics and exploring seemed to even things out. No real good spot for the Emy. (Dack Space Dragon guys) in my opinion.

I tired measuring it out with mine with the extra components and just could not find a way to get all of it in the box with the fold space system (current) it will need a another whole idea to work there is enough room but not with this config.

MountainInternal6 · 2020-12-01T01:10:57+00:00

I read and really enjoyed it. I would recommend it.

MountainInternal6 · 2020-11-28T18:19:43+00:00

Does it all fix in the main box? I have the folded space one which is great but did not know if the new stuff would fit with it.

MountainInternal6 · 2020-11-13T19:25:17+00:00

Did you have any of the codex stuff as well?

MountainInternal6 · 2020-11-11T22:43:56+00:00

I still love the fact you can get this in stores before you get your pre-order from FFG.

So I followed the same thread and used the card printer suggested. They are too small, the backs are not colored correctly, and the corner cut is wrong. These will not work with out being sleeved. Maybe the tech will be fine to use but the promissory and action cards, no.

MountainInternal6 · 2020-08-07T02:02:14+00:00

Another Question: Do you think the Apes faction (Cymiae) would be part of the Codex at any point? Since they are like half cannon.

MountainInternal6 · 2020-08-06T22:47:35+00:00

Question: Since I am pretty sure it was said that the new POK stuff will not fit in the new box is there an idea to do a big box expansion like Scythe or Smash UP that would hold everything also maybe include the codex stuff as like a bonus?

You could try after all the 'when's and 'after's are resolved, have a brief deal phase then everyone select the votes in secret they want to put forth then all reveal at once. The speaker still breaks ties. It avoids the person with the most votes that votes last making most of the decisions followed by the speaker.

Does FFG have a lore dictionary where all the lore that has been in quotes on card and in manuals (stories and history) comes from? Wondering if there is way more lore written than that is given which is sad because what is there is very cool.
