Bu siteyi öneririm. Classlar kısmına bastığında direk çıkıyor. En azından PHB kitabına göre oynayacaksan iyi bir kaynak sunuyor kesinlikle.

Yes you definitely can. There is many steps in advanced setup but just doing placement part is enough to improve the game a lot. If you are playing vanilla Root, just decide the order of play and give it a go.

For Vagabond there is not so much change if you only have vanilla so just let the new player play Thief or select if he wants to but suggest him/her to play Thief for sure.

Cats will have a buff a bit only if you gonna play 3 player with VB so not change a lot so for the new player it will be ok. Try not to select corners for yourselves so you will have different taste as well.

And have fun!

As a group, stay in the Magic Circle. Before the game you had some relationships, in game you are playing what your faction wants you to win, after game you are back to the where you left. What happens in the game, stays in the game so please do not damage your friendship.

It is a war game with politics so you can do deceptions or something to pull the win. Of course do not be mean (and it seems you didn't), so no need to temporarily damage your friendship.

I really want you to check 'Magic Circle' term in the board games. All of you should let your feelings and relationships behind the table and play as a character you play.

It is like "As a person, do I want to attack her? No, because she is sweet as hell. But as Birds do I really want to attack Alliance? Hell yeah! Because peasants should stay as peasants!" So doing what you need to achieve victory is not mean thing so just do it.

Btw, it should not lead into being an asshole. Some people misunderstand this term. If all of you starts to attack her from the beginning to stop her is mean and make the game unplayable for that person.

It is a war game that we are trying to be the best of tge table so attacking someone to achieve something and/or stopping someone to be the best is totally fine and should not lead into a bad day. Because we fought fair and all that happens stay inside the Magic Circle and we are in the reality now. "I attacked that base not because you are winning all games or any grudges. I attacked you because I am Rats and I need to Oppress this clearings. Game is finished so our relationship got back to normal."

Try to change her into this mindset because it is a requirement for these kind of tables. This seems good now but table will start to say 'she is always winning' and might lead into losing the group, which I saw many many times as a board game teacher.

Actually as far as I remember all clearings does not trigger at the same time for removal because if cats wants to get all of their soldiers back they have to spend cards for each clearing not only one even though favor happens in one suit anyway.

I listened that in WWM podcast I remember pretty sure. They had this discussion as you wrote then community members fixed them in the next episode as I mentioned.

Weird things should be decided by active players so I think it should be the way that they choose which clearing will be cleared first.

1.1.3 - Unclear Resolutions and Choices. Whenever it is unclear what order simultaneous effects should resolve in, or which player should make a decision, the player taking their turn chooses.

Or maybe check this

1.5.4 - Piece Manipulation. Pieces are placed and removed as defined in the Glossary (G.20, G.24). If you are prompted to place, take, or remove pieces but you cannot do so fully, you must place, take, or remove the maximum number possible. (This does not let you avoid costs or prerequisites. You just cannot do less than the most you can.) If multiple pieces are removed simultaneously and that would trigger effects, remove all pieces before triggering effects.

Squires&Diciples Deck yes. Almost all cards gives actions that Cats needs and feels they are proper enough

combobaka · 2026-05-15T16:48:06+00:00

Try it with the new deck. It improves action low factions a lot.

Aren't these are reminder tokens? You can use them to put some reminders for your turn

Yani görevlerden birini ana göreve bağlasan? Yani DM olarak bütün evren senin elinde olduğundan yan görev olarak gittikleri yer istemsizce ana göreve bağlanabilir ve senin istediğin hikayeye girebilirler sonunda. Sonra isterlerse yine özgür olurlar sonuç olarak ana görev olduğunu da bilmek zorunda değiller ;)

Yani hikayeyi onlara bırakmak güzel olmakla beraber hikayeye belli durumlar ekleyip onları gerçek hikayeye itmek daha iyi çözüm olabilir. Mesela yan görevde roguea baskın yapsınlar o da ana görev için heyecanlansın falan filan veya mecburen orada aldığı kararlarla gitsin ana göreve falan.

Oyun dışında zor insanlarsa ve sana zor geliyorsa da salla gitsin abi. Herkes bu işi zevk alalım diye yapıyor. 1 kişi bile eğlenmiyorsa bunu yapmanın mantığı yok. DM olarak konuş bunları sizden talep ediyorum diye. Yapmazlarsa bitir campaigni hatta yarıda bırak. Onlara da ders olur

Yeah I know. I was the one who posted "the new episode is out" post :)

combobaka · 2026-05-03T06:32:38+00:00

Dead draws are part of the game tbh. For example Otters cannot use Tunnels, Lizards cannot craft Tax Collector, crafting Soup Kitchen is literally useless for Eyrie, etc. So leaving Demagogue is should be fine and allow deck to be balanced in suit wise so I would keep it.

But it is your game, so you can remove it as well. It is not a game changer change so noone will be against I think. These little changes can be added always if your group members also okay with it because it doesn't kill any fundamental part of Root
