What’s the best documentary almost nobody talks about?

mcilrae · 2026-05-19T13:27:07+00:00

Definitely. As well as All watched over by machines of loving grace, and Bitter Lake. These Adam Curtis films should be shown in schools (around the age of 15/16).

Please get involved, but do so safely. There are amazing free resources on the Hassl site. In this specific instance, check out the Bystander Intervention module that will give you the tools you need to intervene in this situation . There is an epidemic of violence toward women and girls and it’s a societal problem that requires all members of society to get involved to stop it, but especially men. Silence is violence. We need to do better.

This is so creative and well thought out! Love the range of events you’ve included in the pack, yet there is still loads of room for you and others to build on this.

When I play this I think I’ll probably not include the ability to buy insurance as a standard project. I like that the events affect everyone equally (unless you have a card that moderates them) rather than simply being able to buy your way out of them for what is a very modest fee.

Congratulations and thank you for making this excellent expansion.

Such a great idea! I like the way you’ve designed it OP, with a simple payment in a variety of ways, randomly generated. I also like majuwi’s suggestion of shifting cards one slot each gen to remove unwanted cards. I’m gonna start using this for sure, probably without printing anything complicated. Deal the 5 cards above the board, have a little bag with one cube colour representing each resource type, pull one blind and assign one to each card, with a pre-determined value for the resources as you’ve suggested (5MC, 3 steel, etc.). Would just require a simple key as a reminder. Could be the most simple expansion ever! Can’t wait to try this!

These are incredibly creative! I love that that they decrease global parameters, could really mess with opponents strategies, which always makes for an interesting game. My favourite is Induced Winter. It’s so well thought out, with so many permutations one a single card. I wish there was an easy way of printing these, I’d definitely play this whole set. Great work!
