Mass Effect - The Board Game: Priority Hagalaz - What's in the box?

[@pcrem9953]

I love the images of the bad guys on each card, so you know for certain which ones you are activating. Small thing but not having to use external references is always a good thing.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

Agreed. Small common sense things are always neat little touches thst make the game smoother for everyone

Was lovely to see a video from someone who's so obviously a huge fan of the series, hope you enjoy the game!

[@seanmcnallyactor]

Thank you ithayala, we are very much looking forward to it. We have great plans for this over christmas

Looks cool! Loved playing all four video games. Thanks for showing what’s inside. I wish the minis were a little bigger though but they look good.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

Im the same, but i imagine they needed to size them for the boards. The book is large but the boards still seem a little busy.

Love Mass Effect, a friend bought this last week so really looking forward to giving it a go at some point. Thanks for the unboxing.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

I do not love baggies. They are my nemesis.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

Hah! Im the polar opposite, ill quite happily give as many baggies as i can a home and work to do!

[@tiberiian]

I give all of mine to my wife. Where I can I use trays that I can lift and open. I just find the bags so damned fiddley.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

@@tiberiian haha fair enough! i had a game get peed on by a beloved pet. The baggies saved the components. Ever since its become habit.

[@tiberiian]

@seanmcnallyactor considering my cat did the same to my duvet literally last week, this kinda hits home. Now paranoid.......

i never played the video game, but i don't get the use of pronouns.. seems out of place, why can't we just role play what we wish with these characters. doesn't look like it impact gameplay all, but it's just a weird inclusion. i look forward to the review for this one.

[@seanmcnallyactor]

There is a lore reason. The character who is she/they is essentially a gender fluid race. They all appear female but can reproduce with the male or female of any species. They have no distinct genders of their own. As for shepard, most people opted for male or female but in the third game romantic options included same sex. I was surprised to see it, but i can see the reason its there.

@@seanmcnallyactorso you’re proving it’s because of “the current thing”. They wasn’t a “thing” when the series starters (no matter how often people Try to gaslight you) In the games they are female aliens. Female pronouns. Matriarchs in their society. The enemies were witches/banshees.
