Card drafting games are games in which players pick cards from a limited subset, such as a common pool, to gain some advantage (immediate or longterm) or to assemble hands of cards that are used to meet objectives within the game.
Card Drafting
Dice rolling in a game can be used for many things, randomness being the most obvious. Dice can also be used as counters. The dice themselves can be unique and different sizes, shapes and colors to represent different things.
Dice Rolling
In storytelling games, players are provided with conceptual, written, or pictorial stimuli which must be incorporated into a story of the players' creation.

Even if you could get shorter game sessions than Sleeping Gods, this monster in the box can become brutally long, especially when you get hooked. In fact, the weekend was spent for sorting out for couple of planets even to a satisfactory conclusion! The ship phases between the planets took their own time, but with great interest, because there are many maintenance phases and every decision affects future playthroughs, such as new equipment obtained through research and the selection of characters specialized in certain fields for the next mission. For example, digging a tunnel would be easier if a character knew how to use a pickaxe. Skill checks can be messed up, but it doesn't seem too punishing, because you can prepare for them with e.g. section cards. Skill checks (by using dice rolls) is the major mechanic in this game and sometimes I get bored of that, but usually I forget that weakness easily because of game's theme and atmosphere. Dear solo players, I warn you, this is table hog and you should manage at least 3 characters at the same time. If this is okay, it's good game for you too! And nothing else, but let's move and back to rolling sixes... I mean vanguards!

Great production value and innovative campaign mechanics, ok writing. Reducing my rating after more plays, this game is trying to do a lot but I feel it misses being fun. The ship phase is definitely innovative but the whole planet landing process has a story but we just dont feel its worth the investment to go through. Overall dropping this due to the fact no one had fun, as someone said it feels like if they would have made the planet phases more interesting, less complex, and less punishing this game would be good.

+ X-Com auf dem Brett - frustrierend hoher Schwierigkeitsgrad - super nerviges Upkeeping - unzählige Möglichkeiten des Zufalls Enttäuschung zu generieren
