Day 9 & 10 Reveals: I Lost a Day!
over 1 year ago – Thu, Jul 25, 2024 at 06:47:09 AM

Hi everyone!

I'm not sure what happened yesterday, but I'm sure you missed the daily reveal, right? Seriously though, are you enjoying these daily updates? Or would be it better if we just do the reveals on the campaign page and then talk about them all at once in a weekly update?

Let me know, as they say, in le comments!

So what's new? Two things, that's what.

Dwarves are good at building things, so here's a get-rich-quick scheme that cannot fail! All you need are some dwarves, and the Dwarf Masons building: Step 1, keep a dwarf around to use your own HQ. Step 2, send out the rest to use other player's HQs. Step 3, grow your settlement, earn coins, and give other players workers to feed all at the same time!

Here, we have the Goblin Inn. This building will have quite a significant effect on games in which it is built early, as it allows its owner to rapidly increase the number of workers they have at their disposal. However, the double whammy of needing to spend food to get the extra goblins, and then needing to feed a larger workforce, makes the building tricky to use. Players who do use it will either need to find a very efficent way of generating large amounts of food, or find a good way of getting rid of all those extra goblins, be it sending them to another player's settlement, taking spots in the city, or sending them off with an envoy.

That's it. That's the update.

Love you, see you soon, and as always...

Take care, and play games!

Day 8 Reveal: Pippin!
over 1 year ago – Tue, Jul 23, 2024 at 05:31:41 AM

Good afternoon!

The port of Yonder is not short of ships, and indeed a new one has sailed into view just now! Today's reveal is the fine ship, Pippin.

An extra goblin a turn can be the difference between a solid second and pippin your opponents to 1st place. This boat is a little hard to set up, and one challenge it poses is that by the time you've got together what you need to make three deliveries, the realy desirable spaces on the city will probably be taken, which is one of the better uses for goblins. Still, if you can find a way to use the extra worker, the upsides to this boat are considerable.

That's our business concluded for another day. We'll catch you tomorrow.

Take care, and play games!

Day 7 Reveal: Dwarven Grain Investors!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Jul 22, 2024 at 07:21:52 AM

Hi everyone,

It's that time once again. Another card has landed in the Kickstarter bonus pack! Meet the Dwarven Grain Investors...

Dwarven Grain Investors are an exceptionally flexible tool that slot into most economies seamlessly. It's the only A type envoy that gives you a choice of which resource it generates. Look out for early opportunities to acquire grain, like the Skeleton Peasants, the Grain Field, and the third space on the favour track.

Tomorrow will bring another reveal. There's a pattern emerging, right?

Until then, take care, and play games!
