1. It’s Just Fun! – Blood Rage – Area Control + Pick & Pass Verified Buyer – 17 July 2024

   This is a great game for a small group. The components in this game are amazing, high quality and contain a lot of detail. If you like miniature games and/or enjoy painting these are perfect for you (this is not required by any means, but would make the figures that much better). PROS: +The game runs pretty quick, I would say around 45 minutes after the first play through, which is nice as you can play multiple times during one gathering. +As stated above the game has incredible miniatures, and has some good bases to snap on the bottom to easily identify what components are yours and your enemies. +2-4(or 5 with expansion Blood Rage 5th Player Expansion- Multi-lingual Game) The range is nice and the number of players really changes the game strategy, so playing with 2 feels much different than playing with 4. However the rules stay mostly the same (the card drafting changes very slightly) +Each game is different board to play on, there are different areas that are destroyed depending on the number of players and they change every game. There are different pillage tokens that are placed randomly on the board each game. Finally in the game there are 3 different areas that are destroyed after each age. All of these rules help to make the game-board different every game and keep it fresh and repayable. +The drafting of the cards in this game is outstanding, this is a great mechanic to play the game. This removes the need for rolling dice or drawing a random card, for the most part everyone has a chance and you need to decide what is best for you before you pass the reaming cards to the next person. +Finally one great part of the game is playing cards to aid in a battle (which by game design, you do not always want to win) these are played down and reveled all at the same time and it allows for some heavy strategy and bluffing in the game. CONS: -Even though the miniatures are very nice and are a natural base color (probably for painting) it would have been nice if they would have distinguished each different type of figure with a slightly different color base color, it is sometimes hard to remember who is the warrior, leader, monster ect…. -The game goes quick which is nice, however it seems like by the end of round 3 (the last round) you could really enjoy playing for another round or two as you finally have some good combinations set up with units and upgrades. Overall this is a well designed game with great components and plays quick. I would say it is an easy game to play but a good amount of strategy is needed to win. Below are a few pictures of some of the figures (not painted) right out of the box.

   Seguramente mi juego favorito, tiene mucho contenido extra (expansiones) pero el juego base juega hasta 4 personas y es muy equilibrado y apasionante de jugar. (Hay muchas video reseñas en internet por si quieres ver cómo juega).
   Está es la versión inglesa, si no te importa el idioma, puede que lo encuentres a mejor precio, yo la compré más barata que en castellano.

   A cool game, some of the pieces come a bit bent since there is that much to package into a relatively small box, but that doesn’t bother me too much, I am more so interested in the gameplay. The game is really fun and interesting, came up with some rules to play as 2 person teams with each clan which works well.

   Think this will become a fast favourite for myself at least.

   This is an awesome game. Best described as chess for vikings. It looks like Risk but does not play like it. No co-op here. It is head to head and challenging. Played over three “ages” or rounds, the point is to get the most glory before the end of the world. The only thing that may be bothersome is the Snake clan is basically half naked females. This wouldnd have been an issue but I bought this to play with my wife and these figures are never shown on the box. Just a heads up.

   La caja de la paqueteria llego dañada pero la caja del juego vino nueva y en excelentes condiciones, el objetivo del juego es obtener puntos de gloria ganando combates, muriendo en batalla, saqueando aldeas o completando misiones y gana el que obtenga mas final. Esta muy entretenido, la parte mas importante es cuando reparten las cartas al inicio ya que dependio cuales eligas es como desarollaras tu juego. Aparte las figuritas estan muy bien hechas con alto grado de detalle y buen acabado, gran juego. Recomendado
