Copas dari BGG, karena aku juga posting di sana Razz.

Hello, I'm looking for a good fantasy adventure boardgame, with strong ties to the theme. For the game time, maybe for the 5-6 hours I will choose Descent most of the time, so I save that spot for it. But right now, I would like 2-3 hours game, and could stretch to 4 hours but not always. Have any recommendations?

I've read so many reviews on several games here, so I've narrowed my choices unto two games. Prophecy and Cave Troll. I know Cave Troll isn't exactly adventure, that's probably why I'm not too leaning over it. But the theme is great and every reviews said it was fun. On the other hand, the problem that make me shy away from Prophecy is the flexibility of your character. It makes the character less... unique. But I haven't played both, so maybe they're just superstitions. Please enlighten me more on this.

I'm willing to keep open minded. I'll look into it if anybody here suggest another title. So the two above are not limited. So far, my criteria are these, but they're adjustable:
1. More Control over luck. Dice would be fine, as long as they are not your only fate.
2. Uniqueness. Everyone could use any paths to victory, not just one perfect strategy.
3. Fantasy theme. Not Medieval, and certainly not futuristic.
4. If possible, the flexibility of players. (game time is not hampered if played with more than 3 player)
5. Sense of adventure. (hard to describe, but I think you all know)
6. High replayability. Every game is a different game.

Thank you before.

Btw, WOOT! 100th post!! cheers

Oke, harusnya aku juga tulis tentang runebound di sana. Tadi dah ngomong2 sama Reyner, tapi aku tulis lagi di sini deh.

Runebound tidak masuk daftarku (setidaknya tidak sekarang), karena aku berencana beli Descent. Melihat gambar, karakter, dan mekanik dari rulebook, hal yang membuatku put off dengan runebound adalah seolah-olah aku bakal beli descent versi downgrade. Ada yang bisa beri penjelasan secara menyeluruh tentang perbedaan runebound dan descent? Kalo memang 2 game itu berbeda banget, aku masukkan runebound dalam daftarku lagi.

beda banget

runebound tuh tiap player masing2

descent tuh dungeon crawler ala D&D lu work as a team

gw sih lebih prefer runebound...

descent capek maennya, runebound lebih santai...sama2 dicefest...
tapi descent rulenya turunan dari DOOM, dan mnrt gw mekaniknya ga cocok ditranslate ke setting fantasy....mekaniknya lebih cocok ke tactical action (DOOM)
kalo emang suka dungeon crawling sih mending langsung maen D&D aja or cari game lawas Warhammer quest -> highly recommended

Kalo descent, aku pasti beli yang road to legends, sehingga maennya bisa di-'save'. Jadi maennya ngga lama, tapi jadi beberapa session. Kalo aku ngga salah baca sistemnya bisa gini deh. Hal ini bisa mengobati session D&Dku yang udah ngga jalan soalnya ga ada waktu buat ngerancang adventurenya. Embarassed

Btw, thread di BGG ternyata menghasilkan beberapa diskusi yang menarik. Coba aja baca.

So far, the winner is, MAGIC REALM! cheers. Sayangnya game ini saat ini sedang tidak mungkin bagiku Crying or Very sad.

OOT answer, aku pernah maen 3rd ed, dan terakhir 3.5 ed. Campaign yang aku pake adalah dunia buatanku sendiri Very Happy. Masih ada nih filenya kalo mo pake. Ada geographic location, elements and gods, class role, and history. Chivalry & Sorcery belon pernah maen. Lebih tepate, belon pernah tau.

Sekedar kabar, hasil diskusi di BGG sangat bagus, dan sekarang pilihanku tinggal 2, Prophecy ato Runebound. We'll see about this.

Aku udah baca-baca rulenya masing-masing. Nah, pertanyaanku, kalo aku ngga salah baca, runebound itu ga ada skill buat masing-masing ccharacter ya? Developmentnya cuman tambah attributes dan item? Soalnya kalo prophecy bisa beli ability juga sih. Bener ngga? Btw, ini yang base game lho, tanpa expansion aneh2

skill nya cuma yg ada di card karakter kita aja, jadi gak bisa nambah lagi
ya itulah minusnya. dan gitu tiap org maen sendiri2 umum nya...jadi kaya solitaire, entah deh yg 2nd ed (current version) kayaknya bisa lebih rebut2an item. gw maen nya yg 1st ed.
susah juga kalo cari game yg perfect sesuai keinginan sih

Aku cari di BGG, banyak yang bilang bahwa "boardgames cannot give you your RPG fix" Sad
Masalahnya banyak yang nanggung gitu.

Mungkin solusi terbaik adalah mencari DM baru Smile
Aku mau banget jadi DM, cuman we're miles apart bro. Paling2 bisanya main lewat IRC atau messenger nanti

Magic Realmlah yang sempurna untuk RPG. Well, not exactly perfect, tetapi yang paling mendekati. Kabar baiknya, aku sekarang dapat source baru untuk ngeprint, jadi mungkin akan ada dalam 1-2 bulan ini. cheers

Anyway, sekarang aku yang ngga bisa itu adalah fixed time buat bermain. Karena itu aku pindah ke boardgame dulu. Mungkin kapan-kapan yah. Maen lewat messenger juga bisa kok. Lebih baik kita tunggu 4th ed dulu deh. bounce
