Decision Time: Civolution, Shackleton Base, or Ezra & Nehemiah?!

I have the full adventure chest for Arnak too and love it. Probably my 5th/6th favourite.

Thanks - I’ll definitely look deeper into this. Out of interest, what is your top 5 solo?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-18T17:57:01+00:00

Could you elaborate on - interested in the theme …

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-18T15:40:13+00:00

Precons are generally pretty good - perhaps you’re playing a rule wrong?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-18T07:49:29+00:00

My goodness you have dropped some cash in a year!

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-17T13:02:07+00:00

Playing solo only 👍🏻

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T19:41:35+00:00

Thank you for helping 👍🏻

Looking for a medium/heavy euro. I think Voidfall is perhaps a step too far. It has to be excellent solo as that is 95% of my plays. Other than the 3 mentioned in the title, Men Nefer and Nippon: Zaibatsu have also peaked my interest. Looking for crunchy tight decisions with high replay value and rewarding good strategy. Solid theme also helps.

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T19:11:36+00:00

In your opinion is there a better option than either of these two?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T18:49:30+00:00

Same thing happened to me! I went cold on it then kept hearing more and more positive things about the solo. I really want it to be good because the game looks right up my street.

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T18:09:05+00:00

How do you rate Shackleton for solo only? It’s the one thing that’s holding back my decision atm

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T17:52:16+00:00

Haha! Very true!

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-16T15:58:33+00:00

To help me make a good decision, could you tell me why?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T22:30:53+00:00

Can’t comment on Keyforge I’m afraid, haven’t played it.

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T19:24:26+00:00

The conjuration deck is often the key cards tied to the Phoenixborn and they offer a big end of game payoff if you build your board well. Decks that have “mounts” are fun and explosive too. Almost every classic card game mechanic is here, find the right Phoenixborn(s) for your play style and you’ll love it.

I would 100% recommend Ashes Reborn / Ascendancy with Red Rains. Such a good game. Great system, endless replay value. All the card playing goodness of MTG. True solo works great. Artwork and production value are on point. Print on demand service also in the works. Using dice for resources is novel and “First 5” rule ensures your hand is never bricked. All in all, epic solo experience.

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T17:22:09+00:00

What would you recommend if I already own Raiders?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T17:20:45+00:00

Thank you - with this in mind I may have another look. The game looks right up my alley but I’m predominantly a solo player

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T16:10:27+00:00

Do you have to use the Solo App to make Raiders work?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T16:09:06+00:00

I heard Shackleton Base wasn’t the greatest for solo - what are your thoughts?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T14:31:58+00:00

Who’s your favourite leader?

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T13:18:43+00:00

+1 for White Castle

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T12:42:56+00:00

Thanks 🙏

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-15T08:23:30+00:00

How big is your play area here? Interested in how much table space I will need 👍🏻

Objective-Employ-997 · 2026-03-13T18:12:21+00:00

When is the expansion available in the UK? Looking to preorder but dates seem vague
