    2 YEARS for a single match…on the FAST SETTING!?
    Absolutely insane.

    Interesting theme, I like the undead twist, beautiful map, but that playtime will all but guarantee that I won't be able to get it to the table. Still, I'll keep my eye on this one.

    I loved the bidding system in rising sun. Depth with simplicity. Cry havoc has another very intresting resolution thats diffrent look into that one!

    Played tested this game twice last year, when it showed up in a local cafe. The high in this game is pure epicness.
    1st game I won by agreeing to gang up on the VP leader by letting zombies run amok, building up hugeee horde, aiming to take the capital. But in winter, i ended up killing them all for VPs 😅
    2nd game my mission was to finish second. People were so suspicious at all moves I made. Helping people left and right. They got so suspicious the leader refused free VP from me 😂. But in the end I won because the leader did not pull far away enough. And my bonus for finishing 2nd pushed me ahead by a few VPs 🎉

    Oh lord, thisll probably cost $150 at minimum retail assuming nothing suddenly shoots the price of board games. Btw, you know what game doesnt take forever? Battlecon Devastation of Indines

    Game needs some grammar review, caught quite a bit of mistakes. Yes, prototype….

    Rising sun easy 10/10 but you got to like the meta of breaking up alliance and have to know how to play solo if no alliance

    Those advisor cards have some "AI-isms"(ER with the umbrella and hair) . It's getting harder to tell, so I very well may be wrong. Not crying wolf, but "maybe wolf?" . If this matters to you then dig deeper and do your own research on it, but if it doesn't then ignore what I said.

    • @mistuhbear
      @mistuhbear 2 дні тому +2

      Are you implying that because Shelfside is being paid they're going to give the game a better score? Ashton and company are more than fair with their scoring based on their extremely detailed breakdowns of what is good/bad about a game.
      I think 7/10 is a reasonable score for a board game that does several things well while having notable flaws. Turns out, that happens to be the overwhelming majority of games out there (and this is especially relevant for games that are in an incomplete state).

    • @Shelfside
      @Shelfside  2 дні тому +1

      In fact, if the game didn't have so much jank/downtime, I would have happily given it a personal 8/10! But there are an insane amount of problems that counterbalance the very hype moments (and satisfying area control). -Ashton
