   FIRST IMPRESSION: Somewhat of a stock game based on the Roll Player universe with each race having a special ability and terrain types it looks to "settle" so to speak. When mergers occur, the players will play cards to add to each base strength and it is winner takes all, loser gets removed from the board and will have to start over again - sometimes, that is quite the valid and helpful strategy. When cards are used/removed, you score the spoils for each card based on the chart - but the end of the game, each card scores based on the race's strength. Only 5 of 10 races are used in a game so each game can look quite a bit different due to racial powers.

   Watched play throughs, and read rules. Mechanics seem great and well balanced. Love more games in this universe. Thunderworks is on fire! Excited to get this to the table. Didn't back kickstarter but will buy from FLGS ( who backed the retail pledge).

   Played once on Table Top Simulator. Just once, mind you. Now, I own 2 copies of the 1970-ish game ACQUIRE, the beloved game DAWN OF ULOS is based on. And so, it makes complete sense that someone would want to take that awesome classic and improve upon it, 50 years later. The intention was good. But, From an execution perspective, I found this game to be a nonsensical stinker. Keep in mind: That’s just my opinion, though.
