Played once and initially gave a 5.7. After playing Blood Rage recently, I have a more favorable opinion of this game and have raised it to a 5.9. It really isn't my type of game, but I like the alliances, the open upgrade card buying, and the strange blind bid for combat advantages. I also like the map more than Blood Rage.

Pasted on theme. Unbalanced to the point that it's essentially broken. Feels like the designer cared only about the miniatures (which are cool looking) but couldn't figure out how to streamline the play of the game so he tacked on negotiation as a mechanic. So glad I didn't back this game. Looks like it tanks at the retail level too as that version is incomplete. I've played a lot of games, many of which have left much to be desired. However I've never been inspired to rate s game before this one. Which makes this rating of a "1" that much more significant to me. Ugh. Tonight's game night was saved by the good company which is great because this game was absolutely awful.
