  Thanks Volko. This looks like a game that has benefitted from a lot of very thorough historical research. It's on my wish list.

  This looks very promising. The War of the Roses needed a different treatment and it seems to have had it. I have no idea who commissioned the box art but I'm deeply underwhelmed by it. With all the beautiful artwork from the period available and some really skilled artists doing box art these days, I'm surprised that GMT have gone with something so lacklustre. I guess, to quote Shakespeare again, 'there is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so'.

  @@Quincy_Morris There are examples, such as Black Sonata. boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/231218/black-sonata But that is a solo-only game design, solo from ground up.

  This looks really good. Very few times in history. Do you have a situation like this. It reminds me of the hunt for Imad Mugnia. He was effective at terrorism, politically connected, stealthy, good with logistics, strong reputation, and hard to pin down.

• 
  @volkoruhnke26 Жыл бұрын

  Hi! That is an apt comparison. Before this design, I did a game about Mexico's (first) manhunt for "El Chapo" Guzman. ... Once one looks, one finds there are quite a few such hunts after well-defended fugitives, and that those hunts share common dynamics and principles subject to modeling in a tabletop game.

• 
  @PeterMancini Жыл бұрын

  @@volkoruhnke26 I was peripheraly involved in the hunt for mugnia. I considered him the most dangerous of all terrorists. I'm also really interested in Pancho Villa, and on the war gaming table I want to recreate the chaos that was the Battle of Ambos Nogales. A small incident at customs between the US and Mexico led to customs officials shooting at each other and then lighting both towns, both named Nogales, into an absolute shooting match. Calvary, machine guns, two attempts at surrender! This battle had it all.

  The actual battle with Blackbeard is one of those epic stories that greatly helped established the cultural ethos of pirates. Two relatively evenly matched sides, the bad guys gain the upper hand at first and board the pirate hunters, but it was a trap! Then a brutal fight where the two opposing captains actually got into a sword fight. Something you see in fiction a lot but in history is quite rare. And Blackbeard only goes down after being stabbed and shot a dozen times and then decapitated. An epic battle by all accounts.

  Out of curiosity, why publish with Fort Circle and not GMT?

• 
  @volkoruhnke26 Жыл бұрын

  Hi, thanks for asking! After a long effort at getting the game to meet GMT's preferences and that of its preorder audience, GMT and I mutually agreed that Hunt for Blackbeard is a better fit elsewhere. The main issue was GMT's desire for a solitaire system, which we attempted but had not been able yet to make a great experience. But, as I know Fort Circle's KevinB well, and he agreed with me that the 2-player game would be a great fit for Fort Circle's line, the move there was a natural!

Among other things, the addition of the influence system and the subtraction of some of the traditional sacking/ravaging mechanics look to make this another great addition to the series, with a nice balance between familiar and new. And the dynamic grand campaign looks to have a massive amount of replayability and narrative. Looking forward to this!
