This is such a fantastic game. The strategy of building your bag changes so much as your play. The units you might want in your bag early vs late form your long-game strategy but the units you pull each turn force you to play tactically and make compromises. Brilliant design and extremely fulfilling. Always want to play this. One of my all-time favorites. Nobility expansion: Mixed opinions. More units is always welcome but I’m not sure how I feel about the royal decrees, and two of the four new units are dependent them. The problem with the royal decrees is that you can plan all you want to use them cleverly, but you still need to draw the royal coin at just the right time. It turned the royal coin from an annoying, boring piece in your bag into something potentially swingy and frustrating. Also, playing with 3 royal decrees can be somewhat overwhelming. You already have to take account of 8 units on the board, and now 3 more potential special powers that your opponent could use on any turn. I think playing with just one is better... but then you can’t use the two units that use them as their ability. So overall, I like the new variations but the royal decrees don’t feel true to the base game

This game has become the staple for our gaming group. Its capacity for fulfilling 2p play and the option for co-op/competitive is integral to its appeal. The variety of combinations available and the simplicity of its design are big selling points, in addition to the high-quality art assets and weighty pieces. Overall an excellent design, as long as you can draft units or ban certain units that can become problematic (as we sometimes do with the Berserker and/or the Scout).

Rating based on this game for me, which it is not. Too many asymmetric powers for my poor brain to take in, and I didn't find the gameplay that interesting to make me want to expend the energy on remembering what each unit could do. Played turn-based on Yucata, so maybe better face-to-face? Rating marked upwards after a few more games have helped me to become more familiar with the powers. Still turn-based and suspect a lot better face-to-face.
