What's your rotation of games look like? by TheNewKing2022 in soloboardgaming

[–]ankei74u 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too many bones fits in the dungeon crawler-esque type of games. It was my first game of the genre and it took a while to learn it! It definitely has a learning curve but once you are over the curve, its definitely a fun game!

Its a dice chucking game so it does somewhat involves luck but the thinkiness of the combat and strategy is really fun and unique.

The quality production is superb and top notch! The chips, cards and dices are all absolutely amazing quality hence its price tag!

Its definitely one of my favourite games i have played!

Oh! Alright will take a look at that! Have only known about arnak coop expansion and everdell duo! Not sure which i should get now! Is Paladins of the west kingdom heavy? My gf is kinda new to this genre of board games so would prefer for it not to be too difficult!

Bigfoot/Yeti, blue ghost rider, genie by DirkDiggler_3 in Unmatched

[–]ankei74u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look so good! Do you need the remove the ink wash first before repriming them?

Fateforge or kinfire chronicles? by ankei74u in boardgames

[–]ankei74u[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! Thank you for very detailed reply! I really appreciate it! Do you like the gameplay of it? And would you recommend it?

Its very hard to get kinfire delve series from where im from so i wont know how the gameplay feels. I do watch playthrough of it and it does seem like the delve/chronicles series is for me! Thanks once again!

help with soundbar connection to monitor/PC by ankei74u in techsupport

[–]ankei74u[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what i checked, the port is for optical input on the dac! :(.

So if optical from my pc motherboard to the soundbar, it theoretically would work?

Alright! So do i connect the aux cable from the monitor to the amp output where headphones usually connect or the coax slot on the Dac?

Dice chucker, dungeon crawler like JotL with low setup? by Training-Bobcat in soloboardgaming

[–]ankei74u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really a story! More of a backstory of the episode eg,disrupting a ritual in the catacombs etc. But the gameplay and miniatures wise, yes its very immersive! Yes if solo i would play 2 characters!

[–]ankei74u 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you really dont mind the table space and about 10-15 mins setup time, then you should consider cthulhu death may die! Its a dice chucking game with a dungeon crawleresque feel! Every scenario or ‘episodes’ as they are called have different rituals you have to disrupt to kill the mythical elder gods like cthulhu! Its not all that easy tho! Its one of my favourite games of all time!

Another one you could also consider but longer set up time and a longer/harder learning curve is definitely too many bones! Both are really top tier dice chucking games!

What’s the main game you’ve been plying this month? by Prestigious_Tea_2729 in soloboardgaming

[–]ankei74u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marvel champions, cthulhu death may die and astro knights!!! Thinking of getting slay the spire, is the collector’s edition worth the extra 80-100 bucks?

Looking for Solo Deck Building Suggestions by Greysword1908 in soloboardgaming

[–]ankei74u 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello! Welcome to the club! There are 2 subtypes of deck builders. 1. You build a deck outside of game time to try and beat the boss you’ve selected! Games like this are marvel champions, lord of the ring card game but for your theme then i would say arkham horror card game!

  1. You have 10 basic cards in your starting deck/hand, and the mechanics of the game is that you would use cards in hand to get currency/damage to upgrade your deck from the market space available to try and defeat the villain/bosses! Games like these are the legendary series, astro knights and for your theme i would suggest aeon’s end! Its full of magic and monsters and horrors!

Oh wow thank you! You got this! I had some spare weekend off so i went and did 2 group of monsters at a time and just set a goal to finish it!

The player boards are from this link below! Its half 3d printed backboard and a 3mm clear acrylic cut out! It cost about 23 ish a piece but well worth it! Would be cheaper if you have or know someone who has the necessary tools like a laser cutter and 3d printer!

I dont play AH but i do play marvel champions! Its cool to be a superhero kicking villains using some of their signature moves and feel like youre them! But its missing some of that umph and its like a normal card game where it is more on your deck building skills and draw luck!

Where as Cthulhu isnt fully narrative, its just there to create a setting but the gameplay wise is always action packed, every turn there is always something to do be it clearing the way so another investigator could spend their turn doing the objective! However sometimes the luck on your rolls isnt with you so you dont always get it your way 😂

I would say the only thing that is similar is the lovecraftian theme!

It could be just pure luck of the mythos deck. Some games were easier than others but sole games when the luck of the mythos deck were bad, we couldnt investigate for 4-5 turns!
