    Interesting point of distinction for changing loyalties - why the bidding system for one scenario but not the other? for an 18-card game, would have thought that streamlining ruleset would be more important.. unless playtesting showed that it was unbalanced without bidding in one scenario but not other?

    • @joeklipfel3076
      @joeklipfel3076 3 місяці тому

      Yep, your last point was the case. In playtesting we found that switching loyalties was too powerful of a strategy and not penalizing enough. So we introduced at least the threat of the other player buying some of your cards out from under you in a change. Yeah normally you'd expect the shrunk version to be simpler but I don't think that's where this project ended up. It's definitely not like a gateway into Pamir...more like a travel version or "try before you buy" version :)

    Looks awesome. Built it and figuring out how to play. A bit confused where you say at 6:45 (with Roman Legions) that you can't store a played card and then at 9:00 (with Grain) that you can. Did you mean that you couldn't store Roman Legions because you planned to discard it? [EDIT: Hmm...looks like you automatically discard your played card so I'm still confused.] Maybe I missed something else? Anyway, seems like a lot of decision space jammed into 18 cards!

    • @maderiphon
      @maderiphon Місяць тому

      I believe he was able to store the material from Grain because the card itself triggered the storage. Whereas in the first case Roman Legions was played and triggered a storage effect on another card hence it had already been 'spent'. Not sure if that makes sense or if it's even correct but that's how I interpreted it 😅

  • @aramatd

    I've been playing this game lately, and I'm loving it! It is all well thought through! The only thing I don't understand is the bot interest. It seems to be less interested in cards that I would think are better for him. For instance: On round two. If the bot has a porcupine and an ostrich. And in the display are a raccoon and an elephant. By my calculations his interest in the raccoon is -1 and for the elephant -3. So the bot is more interested in the raccoon. But I would think the elephant is a better card for him. Since it has more icons in common with his zoo, and also more conservation and appeal points. Am I not calculating it right?

    I didn't get the point that by discarding cards you can rush to end the game. I believe the condition to trigger rest phase is that the drawing deck is empty. So how can discard action speed up the game?

    • @joeklipfel3076
      @joeklipfel3076 5 місяців тому

      If you have no other actions you can do, it's a way to push the end game. If you draw more cards and have more than the max hand size of 3, you return any surplus to the bottom of the deck, effectively not moving the timer at all. But if you use a turn to dump your hand, you'll have room next turn to draw and keep cards
