    I learn every day. I have SoA on the table about half the time. The only cards I can see replacing (after version 1.5 I may have them pretty worn) are the modifier decks. I assume these are present in the new core game, have they been upgraded in the 1.5 Upgrade kit? Can the dice from Battles be used in the core with any ease?

  • @wiblick

    As a solo player I won’t use the ‘family’/interaction mode, so I really appreciate that the core mechanic is solo friendly.

  • @OpenOwlStudios
    @OpenOwlStudios2 ай бұрын

    Yeah, as typically a predominant single player when it comes to board games it can be tough when the solo mode is a heck of a lot different then the flow of a multiplayer game. So am here for you on making all the aspects of mechanics accessible for different player counts and can be used optionally as well when you play.

    will the next year expansion come with more event cards? I am playing the game a lot right now and I feel that I reach the end of the story, I will lose incentive to grab other characters later if there are not any more events to continue it somehow

  • @NatalieOpenOwlStudios
    @NatalieOpenOwlStudios3 ай бұрын

    So the Reprint and Expansion campaign going on right now have some additions to deal with that. We have revealed 2 new event cards called "Endless events" that you can throw in after you've completed the story. As well, we have a whole new interaction mechanic in the Friends and Family expansion where you can socialize with villagers on an entirely new board. So this will add alternate buildings as well as a "socialization" action as well as some new cards. So I think that will add quite a bit to the game. We have the idea of the 2 character expansion for next year but we have yet to really have details to share with that expansion at the moment.

    Brendan, sorry you could not get into Oathsworn. Yes, there is a lot of game, but it can be handled. I think the set up and break down time is the biggest offput for people. My gaming group is enjoying it. We are currently going to playing encounter "9". Natalie, Sleeping Gods is a great system. I have both games with expansions and add ons. I have played a campaign of the original with my gaming group, and we enjoyed it tremendously. Keep digging into it.

I do have a couple other games where we applied the stickers to tokens and just take a picture of where the tokens go in between each session. For another one we printed out the maps and just wrote on them. Hopefully they come up with some kind of similar solution for this one.

The next guy (maybe me) will just need to use a different color, white-out, or a suitable. I think new sticker sets will be available in all likelyhood. My notes are usually only erratta and which choices I made, not where it will lead or from wence it came. No spoilers, just helps me understand where I am after a pause.

    Assuming you play on the book and having made terrain for Jaws of the Lion I immediately think about the placement of ships near the binding, the campaign graphic looks like the ring binding cuts into the hexes, not an issue on TTS but in the physical game I'm interested to see what the solution is?

    I mean, if the change in the card format and icon locations is considered a major, important upgrade, then it would be weird to me if it wasn’t included in the upgrade pack. At that point, you’re not REALLY getting 1.5, you’re just getting some of it. I’d be happy to pay extra if it means ending up with the same 1.5 experience that new buyers are gonna get.

    I must say I really appreciate that you do these updates as a company looking not just at single products, but your entire range of work, since that gives a really transparent (and interesting) look at your company and how things are actually going on a higher level. Perhaps you could add the month (and year) in each step also for the earlier games to give an idea of how things actually went in the end? That would make it like a portfolio of sorts, showcasing how you work! Otherwise just the end date of fulfilled games would also still help of course, if all dates would make the chart too busy 😉 Anyway, great job and I'm looking forward to Mythwind soon!
