No, that would be an IP they would need to pay a licence fee for. Note that so far they have stuck with public domain IPs like fairy tales and classic literary characters.↧

I know that would need an IP, but they have already done that before with Bruce Lee, Jurassic Park and now Marvel.↧

Yeah... it does seem a little bit of a stretch. Still, we do know we should be expecting an announcement of some kind soon.
I feel like I've been waiting for this to come out since I learned Unmatched existed. It's been in the works for so long it has become comical.
Edit: by "in the works" I suppose I just mean "stuck in licensing." Not to rag on anyone who worked on this, as it sounds like it has been out of their hands, too.

Yeah, it's the set I'm anticipating the most for the giant mini, but it's also starting to become a joke how long this is taking. At least 3 sets will have come out since hearing about this box, and this box has not moved out of licensing...

Thread: Fireball Island: The Curse of Vul-Kar:: General:: New Target Edition
by geigersplat
I went to my local Target today to see all the new games that released on June 20 (Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition, Trails, etc.) and saw a new version of Fireball Island.It was only $29.99 which is a steal compared to what I paid for my copy originally and it also has a much nicer quality box (like what you would expect from a standard modern board game versus the flimsy cardboard the original came in).
I did not buy it as I already own it (though I was tempted at that price for the box alone).
Does anyone know any more details? I wonder if there are any other differences.

They updated the box with the 2nd printing in I think late 2019 or early 2020 but not sure what/if any other changes were made to reduce price point. $30 is a great price, l paid $56 on amazon march 2020 for mine↧

Thread: Pandemic Legacy: Season 0:: Rules:: Affiliation restriction
by fredact
Are you able to use your occupation advantage in any city, or only cities of your own affiliation? (At the start of the game, I'm not asking for spoilers).We've played and won the first three months using that restriction, but something made us go back and check that, and now we can't find where in the rules it says that, and are thinking that perhaps we'd mistakenly extended the Team restriction (only active in the city of its color) to the characters.

The box was the same size (though improved quality). Looking at the back, I thought one of the minis may have been different but I couldn't be sure. They must have done SOMETHING to reduce the price so much.

Nothing in the rules says that occupation advantage can only be used in a city of the agent's affiliation.↧

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. I know that the new "board" cost a small fortune for them to produce in the early days.

Reply: Unmatched: Battle of Legends, Volume One:: Variants:: Re: Fan Deck: The Devil
by BennyBoyBl
Okay some changes have been made...1. The phrasing of A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL has changed from, "Give this card to your opponent" to "Place this card in front of your opponent." Hopefully this helps avoid the confusion of an opponent adding the card to their hand and thinking it is possible for them to play it themselves.
2. I touched up the art for DEADLY SIN: ENVY. The changes are subtle but in my opinion the residual thought bubble that I tried to cover up in the original artwork is slightly more hidden at a glance.
3. I totally replaced the art for DEADLY SIN: PRIDE. I honestly was never very happy with what I had in place, so I finally took the time to replace it with something that has a stronger thematic connection and in my opinion looks a lot better.
4. LUCK OF THE DEVIL now lets the player move up to 3 spaces rather than just one. I contemplated this for awhile and during a playlets today decided to finally pull the trigger and change it. The Devil does not have much mobility in his combat cards, plenty in schemes, so hopefully this will be a change for the better.
5. BETTER THE DEVIL YOU KNOW is in the midst of a rework. The card name has always begged for the Devil to reveal his hand and it now does in one of the options the opponent can choose. I am debating changing this so that the Devil always has to reveal his hand with other card effects the opponent must choose (ideally the effects would relate to the newfound knowledge they have of the Devil's hand). It's a tricky card because I don't want it hurt the Devil so much a player wouldn't want to play it, but the thematic connection with the name is too good to pass up. Any thoughts on this conundrum would be appreciated.

in theory probably best for 1vs1 but have tried the 2v2. if you got 3 players I would just do 2v2 with the most experience player controlling 2 characters. The maps are not really balance I think for 3 or 4 free for alls. (yet)

Thread: Pandemic Legacy: Season 0:: Rules:: April spoilers: Failed objective 1
by Eringirl
In February, we successfully disrupted the trials in all 3 cities (yay!). However, now in April, we failed the entire objective. The debrief entry for failing the first objective in April tells you to create infection cards for each of the 3 cities which we did but it doesn’t mention anything about placing exposed city stickers on these 3 cities (nor does it mention specifically that these cities are exposed, this might be a confusion since we were successful in February). I also read the debrief for completing this objective (not sure if that is a big no-no 😬) and it mentions that you SHOULD put exposed city stickers on the cities that you did not disrupt the trial). Rule F discusses exposed city stickers but my husband is standing by that the debrief doesn’t specifically mention the words “exposed city”. He says we shouldn’t place the stickers, I say we should. So, we’d love to hear your thoughts!We successfully completed the second objective so we are moving on to May for our next play.

1v1v1 works just fine on the current big maps. (My kids and I played Dracula v Angel v Spike in Baskerville Hall this afternoon.)The Marvel sets will even be only coming with rules for how to play 3-4 player free-for-alls.
Justin spoiled said rules and they break down thusly:
On the first round of play Player 1 can't attack Player 3 and Player 2 can't attack Player 4.
If your Hero is eliminated, but you still have sidekicks on the board, then they're also eliminated.
I think that's really it.
I've only gotten to play a few three person games, but I've felt that they've worked just fine.

by gatharion
Puss in Boots would be a great character to see in Unmatched, I'd love to see that. But I'm just as happy for it to not specifically be the Shrek-based version.Really, I think there's a niche for a "trickster" figure of some sort and Puss-in-Boots would be cool, but I don't if he'd be my first choice to represent that archetype. (Not to say there could only ever be one Trickster figure. Robin Hood even fits that description in some ways, although his deck design doesn't lean strongly towards that.)
