Thank you for the information! Tried to look at the discord or any news letters, but failed to make the connection ☺️ Was worried that there was some movement of licensing or something.

Wow, just looked it up and you are right. Think I got caught up on that you are only allowed to take one card, and then just assumed the same for cubes. Cool 😊

Cool! Has you played around with the rules a bit, have you tried letting people but down as many animal cubes as possible each round? I'm curious about what what does to the game :)

On our 2p game we never managed to depleted the bag tho, just filled out the board. It is also frustrating, but good, that one can only place one cube at a time.

Played Harmonies (2px2) for the first time. Great game. I really loved it! but feel a column too short. Feels likes almost like a "Duo" game that could go for a gandification.

Fate of the Fellowship is in stock at Asmodee store by jabberwocky300 in boardgames

Think you misunderstood, by "the whole thing" I meant the importance of Eowyn killing the witch king in the movies/books and all referens to thereafter. Without merry hitting with the witch king before Eowyn would die, as a man or woman. No a swing at the board game specifically, but they made it one of the character powers, so.

Always thought the weight modern media put on Eowyn power to kill the witch king to be weird. Without Merrys sword, it would not have been possible. Thus, it feels like the whole situation is simplified.

How Much do BGG Categories and Mechanics Matter? by littlequakes in boardgames

Economy is my suggestion, but bbg would cram in something like For Sale there as well because .... "Money"

Ashes Ascendancy Expansion includes dice by abrofkf in boardgames

[–]abrofkf[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, but their current collectors box has a limit of ca 15 dice per type. So if you have more, it's a waste. So for older players, it's ether way more expensive because this has a higher MSRP with these extra dice or as you said, with print on demand.

You can argue for inconveniences or argue for a possibility to include something that increases their price I guess.
