I really like this game. Late to the party - just finished watching Firefy and just bought your game. I read several negative reviews, and in my opinion, they were unwarranted. You capatured the spirit of the show, and the dice powers are very much in line with the characters. Personally, I like the mission card draw timing as is. You can still manipulate the dice with Wash or River after the draw. But I like the randomness. Great job! 👍

Just found this at a thrift store, puts magic to shame. Wish this was out back in the day. I liked magic, but it was, even back then, too saturated. This is complex enough for deep strategy, but simple enough to not be overwhelming.

I notice you used the old version of the game. I have since then changed the key size. And I have improved the graphics of the cards to make them more understandable. My name is Rod and I made this game. Once again, thanks very much for your review!

I wish I found this review before I started playing, because it would of be the most helpful guide I would have used. You go into more details about the basics of the game than actual guides have. And even added some in-game thought process such as maybe the new rarer weapon isn’t what you are looking for. Which yes I did learn that from a video, but understood it better when I found an Iron Archor and afterwards found the lore store Vardemoder. Vardemoder was rarer and stronger, but it life drain ability wasn’t work giving up the Archor’s abilities to wet a whole party and stun enemies. But yes thank you for your video. It was very informative.

So glad it was helpful for you! It's still a great game and one I go back to from time to time. The Lore store is still one of my favorite ways to unlock things. Enjoy, and thanks!

Another question, so I drew/failed Gorram mission and I also had a Book die. Does Book's ability to "end turn immediately" work because it would happen before the keep flying/lay low decision phase, or does it void his ability.
@CritsHappen Жыл бұрын
Great question... which could have easily been avoided had the rules said "Gorram: If a Mission with Gorram is completed successfully this turn, the active player must choose to "Keep Flyin'" in Step 4 - Lay Low or Keep Flyin'" in the keywords section for the missions. If the Gorram mission fails, you do not have to choose to keep flyin', so in your case, you could either Book out of the turn or choose to end on your own, not having successfully completed the missions. If you had completed a Gorram mission though, then yes, it would override Book's ability to end the turn, however, you could still use Book's ability to capture all the victory points in the "at risk" score pool, however you'd still have to keep flying. I never noticed that the rules just said that Gorram missions should force you to keep flying when "completed" and not "successfully completed" but that was the intent. Hope that helps!

If you draw a sabotage mission card, and re-roll and get 4 different outlaws do you get to apply the team bonus?
@CritsHappen2 жыл бұрын
Fabulous question, which has amazingly never been asked before... but no, since drawing a card is part of Step 2: Get A Mission the check for a Team Bonus has already happened in Step 1 - Get a Crew, so it wouldn't be applied. IF this game is ever revisited/reprinted, that is a shift I would make though, as I think as the designer, that would be a good improvement.

On the final scoring page, what do the number mean. The only that makes sense is the final total. It is weird you can't see the breakdown. There is ONE big number in the middle that is your final score. Below that are 2 scores. One to the bottom left and one to the bottom right of your total score. They are generally single digit numbers
@CritsHappen2 жыл бұрын
It's been some time since I played the digital version, but I believe the left number is the number of cards you upgraded to 3 sections (so it has a top, middle, and bottom section filled on one card) on and the right number is the number of vales you acquired in the game.
