Totally agree on the plastic tokens, they are lovely! On the cardboard locations, they are expensive for what they are but I also like them. Didn’t realise they had extra cardboard to make the threats level on them! Found that in the box after you mentioned it in this video! However I have to say, I never had a problem with the threat cards before though?

No. 3: Team Decks - absolutely love the idea of this content, however I was more apprehensive about this than the campaign decks re: needing all the previous content. Appreciate there was talk of being able to "swap out" heroes, but having not yet seen it in action, I'm interesting to see how it all plays out.

Oh interesting. I was the opposite. The campaign decks seemed built for specific heroes (at least with how they were described) while team decks seemed less specific. There are exceptions though like the team deck that is all just weapons for specific heroes. This is what I'm most excited for but I think all the new design spaces they have introduced in United S3 are fantastic

No. 6 - really looking forward to the campaign decks; love stringing gameplay together. (Re: rest of the content, this is my first back and have jumped in acquiring all of the content!) ❤

I am the most curious about the campaign decks. I think they sound pretty cool but I'm worried they may be too dependent on owning most or all of the content. We will be sure streaming some campaigns plays whenever the product delivers

The team decks are still OP as well, they add 1 health to every deck in a 4-player game. Again, I suggested during the kickstarter that if you play a card from the team deck you should substitute it for a card in your deck, discard your card in hand.

@Co-opGuild

I have no idea if the team decks will be OP. Players are already removing a card from their decks to use the Team Decks. Having players lose health AND a card from their deck to play a team card seems incredibly harsh, especially when clearing a negative mandatory card. I'm excited to find out more about these team decks! They seem like a really fun idea.

Great discussion. These are always fun videos! I'm pretty inline with you both except for two major differences; 1. Campaign decks are at the bottom for me as I tend to avoid campaigns in general. 2. Annihilation is 3rd from the bottom (above pets and campaigns). Not much to it and the challenge sounds fun but way too fiddly to ever see much use. Maximum Carnage is definitely tops though! Especially during the KS with all the extra dashboards.

@@Co-opGuild I expect the campaign decks are possibly the most polarizing add-on in general. The added stories will definitely be nice, but the plug and play nature of United is such a big selling point for the system that the two parts almost seem at odds. That said, it's such a small part of the overall cost I have no issue getting them. Who knows, maybe we'll play them if they seem to have built in variety (which it sounds like they do).

Play mat: This is my first MU KS. I'm glad to have an option to buy the play mat (not having previous versions) and personally, I love the colour on this version so looking forward to having this. I don't mind that it's smaller and think it's good that they have left the notion of using a story line around the mat, whilst also not forcing people to do so, recognising some choose to play the storyline in a line. Either case, I have a feeling the storyline will be all the more important from what I've observed thus far... Exciting stuff! ❤

Everyone loves Loki gator since the series. Would have been very surprised if they didn't work that into the game somewhere. I do like the pets in Legendary so I'm curious how they will play in United. I think my bigger issue is there isn't enough variety.

So in their current form Pets are far too strong. What I suggested to the devs during the kickstarter was to remove a single card from your deck for each pet card you add to your deck. That's the only way to balance out your deck size. This still makes your deck strong but it minimizes that somewhat. It's all about game integrity. I would agree about 2 new models for the Civil War but the Cap there is the best sculpt in the entire Wave so he has to stay. I actually like Wave 1 Iron man more than Wave 3 personally.

@Co-opGuild

Hmm I can see replacing cards in a hero deck for each pet card to be too powerful since you are likely replacing cards without specials for specials. This probably only really matters for 4 player games though. 2 player games are much more dependent on villains ending the game than heroes. I haven't tried the pets yet so will be interested to see how they wind up feeling balanced. I was worried about equipment feeling too powerful but so far in Spider-Geddon that has not been the case. Fortunately all the pet cards only have a single action so that should help reduce their power levels. I'm expecting them to be a moderate impact to the game with the single action and dilution of the hero cards to offset the increased deck size and additional effects

Thanks a lot for this buyers guide. I had a question, which you actually answered during this video. It was about using the cardboard locations if I’m not getting everything. So thanks for that. My other question, for adding things to pledge manager, is this…. I’m brand new to the game. In your opinion for value and gameplay etc, would you recommend which if these two bundles. A) Galactus $100 pledge, with Maximum Carnage, Sinister Six original, Fantastic Four, plastic tokens and Cardboard locations. Or B) Galactus pledge, And both season 1 and 2 stretch goal boxes. Thanks for any insight

No. 8 - Inhumans are a decent team to be fair, interested to see what they do with the gameplay content beyond just the minis.

And I'm just back for the X-men stuff. I'm going to pick out all the X-men stuff and sell or give away all the rest. I'm really looking forward to the pets expansion (and I'm only getting it for the shark and Lockheed content). Pets are like super equipment to me.

War of Kings mainly for Gladiator and Black Bolt (for the Illuminati Team).

Canje , what was wrong with Nick Fury Sr.? He's the O.G. Nick.

Wow, you guys functionally build your games around your locations. I find that almost kills the game in a sense. I think it works better by just designing your team around random locations. Your team should be able to deal with the environment and villain. I mean, the only unique thing about Silver Surfer is getting to choose one location to play with.

@Co-opGuild

9 ай бұрын

Yes and no. We would do a combination of random and selected locations. If we did pure randomness, sometimes we would end up with multiple locations with the same or similar effects which wasn't much fun. I usually would random locations and then adjust the locations to be balanced for variety. Now for the campaign we did, that was very different as we locked the locations behind certain bosses and areas. It's not part of the rules but made it thematically fun. (We didn't use Wakanda locations until we unlocked the Black Panther area of the campaign). But yeah normally we play with partial randomness for locations

Maximum Carnage is #1. But if they would have included an automa mode for Civil War and made Captain America and Iron Man Anti-heroes so you could play against either side of the conflict. It would move up to #2.

Hi! Question: Does return of the S6 really add something to: Base pledge Classic promos bundle Maximum carnage ?

@Co-opGuild

Жыл бұрын

Good question. Return of the Sinister Six is a fantastic value. I'm going to assume we are talking about the Kickstarter exclusive option here as the retail will be much more limited. It doesn't inherently mix with the core sets. The main value is being able to play as a group villain battle and each villain independently. Effectively 7 different adversaries combinations. Classic promos does add to Return of S6. Specifically you can add Rhino, Venom, and Carnage into the mix of group villain battles. To be honest, you would only use the minis and could substitute without the official mini. Maximum Carnage adds a ton to Return of S6. Specifically it adds Morbius, Scream, Scorpion, Shriek, Demogoblin, and Doppelganger You didn't mention it but Spider-Geddon, the new retail set will also add to Return to S6 with Spot and Morlun. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions.

Disagree on Civil War - No Way you can create a Retail Box for Civil War and not have Cap and Iron Man in it....expecting people to have to go either purchase another box or find the minis on Ebay or something doesn't make sense from CMONs standpoint. Also, just bc they fall on opposite sides of the Accords, Iron Man and Cap ARENT anti-heroes, the developers have really made that a point they wanted to be clear. They are heroes with different ideas of how to best be heroes. Also, this is Multiverse. Having 2 Caps and two Iron man's isn't wild. And the Equipment alone doesn't fix S1 Cap and Iron Man for me.....those two alone made Civil War a top expansion for me along with Maximum Carnage.
