Great potential, but that rulebook, man... I allways want to thrash it into pieces!!! Really bad rulebook...
AdmiralACF
+Highly thematic. +Gives players lots of freedom to work together in a meaningful way. +The game responds to what the players do through event cards geared towards the actions the players take. +Multiple scenarios offer numerous ways to play and keep the game fresh. The designer has already released a new print-and-play scenario free of charge! +Lots and lots of events and treasures mean you will very rarely see the same ones pop up. =Some "interesting" translations on some cards and other components. Usually these aren't enough to make the cards/components unplayable. =There are a lot of little rules to remember in this game, which means it's easy to not play entirely correctly. =This game is VERY hard. I haven't yet decided if it's TOO hard, but it's close. I don't mind games with a steep learning curve, but I'm concerned this one is simply designed to make even the best players lose more often than not. With shorter games, I don't mind losing fairly often because I have time to try again, but with a longer game like this one, I'd at least like to have a 50/50 chance of winning with competent play. -The game feels highly chaotic and random. Winning seems more about luck than good strategy. -The rulebook is terrible. Very poor translation with lots of grammatical errors and typos. I can understand problems with translation, but how hard is it to catch "Ilsand"? -Even ignoring translation issues, the rules are still lacking important details and are not well laid out. -There are only 4 player roles in the game, and 1 of them is only supposed to be used for 4 players. The rest of the game has a lot of variety, but it seems they skimped on perhaps the most important part for adding to replayability. -The tokens are not the best quality. They are rather thin. UPDATE 8/23/14: Recently received the Z-man version of the game as a gift. While the tokens are much improved in this version, the grammar errors and rulebook readability are not. I can't tell if Z-man had a proofreader look at the game, but if they did, the person did a poor job.

This game is quite tough. Even with a great strategy and tactics, luck can still play a large part I think. I've got probably 20 games under my belt and have had the chance to play 4 players numerous times. Its fun with players who like to think critically and talk through all of the options available. Seems like with more plays, one can get better at the game which is good. Focus on the objectives, use health as a resource.
