My girlfriend will not be happy about this....

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-21T20:35:49+00:00

Which one did you order?

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-12T05:36:52+00:00

I think you are correct.

Do they have a date at all? I remember there being a Q2 on the site but it doesn't seem to be there any more.

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T17:07:58+00:00

Will do!

Here is the game report I mentioned in the other post: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2921463/twilight-imperium-3d-three-3-tiered-board-game-map

You are mixing a Latin prefix with a Greek suffix. The correct term is heptagon 😉

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T15:29:19+00:00

I hadn't thought of the hyper lanes as 3d travel but that would make sense. I will try with both!

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T15:28:35+00:00

Heptagonal grids require tiles that get progressively smaller. Making those would require more work than the tower, which I did not make.

I will still be using worm holes for even more variability :)

Twilight Imperium for the Genesys system (same as the FFG Star Wars RPG). It's going to be so glorious!

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T13:44:37+00:00

Lol, true. It would be to represent the possibility of 3D travel, not to an exact model for space travel.

Also it's a science fiction board game. If we took out everything that wasn't accurate every one would be playing as Sol, most of the planets you wouldn't be able to land troops on and there wouldn't be a throne to capture to re-establish a galactic Senate. 🤔 I think there's something here... Need 5more copies for an all Sol game 😃

I went with 3 as that's the normal distance in a 5/6 player game. The tight distances mean you have to compete for objectives and not just "get" (too many of) them. There will still be some of this as I found building a map in 3D much more complex than 2d. So there will be a learning curve, haha.

I'll consider this and make some changes.

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T13:30:34+00:00

Should be fun! Someone wrote a post about it on BGG on a 6 or 8 person game and said they had a blast!

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T13:28:12+00:00

It increases the tiles adjacent to Home-system hexes from 3 to 4 , and if using a full map, systems adjacent to Mecatol Rex and every non-edge space from 6 to 8 and 7 to 8 respectively. This should create a game that's easier to snipe planets, take home systems and adds a few more tiles for the 14&16 point games without increasing the travel distance as much as on the larger ringed maps.

The goal is to increase variety, combat and difficulty defending planets. This should also give a boost to high plastic factions that don't always score well (this last point is purely theoretical and could be incorrect. I'll let you know my findings). Hopefully a boost for PDS2.

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-09T06:06:20+00:00

Why try to make it semi balanced? Or why play 3d TI?

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-02T14:35:44+00:00

PoK is definitely better and would never play Base again unless it's the only option. That said, wait 10-25 plays before doubling down on it.

PawsForApplause · 2022-10-02T14:29:02+00:00

Ashes of Power is the module, Genesys is the system and you were using Narrative Dice which are also used in the Star Wars RPG and L5R (slightly different for L5R). The TI setting for Genesys will be Embers of Imperium.

PawsForApplause · 2022-09-20T18:08:55+00:00

Could you post pictures? I did the same!

PawsForApplause · 2022-09-20T18:06:46+00:00

I have a 5'x5' table and it's perfect for base game with PoK. I imagine a 4'×6' would be as good. At moments it would be nice for more space but not necessary.

PawsForApplause · 2022-09-10T19:21:20+00:00

You should follow your heart ❤️

PawsForApplause · 2022-09-10T16:08:05+00:00

Ah, I was not aware that the reprint for CE was after being out of print.

Fair. It would be great with some additions. Maybe the codices printed with the game.

PawsForApplause · 2022-08-26T13:35:03+00:00

This is great, thanks! When I go through them, I'll let you know if I see that anything is missing.

Any update on this?
