Board Game Arena

I have noticed that some of the icons are already well known to me. I can remember where I have already seen them: the mobile game "Quest cards" for Android by Running Pillow. You can find it on GooglePlay easily. For example, "Rage" and "Perforation" are totally the sa...

Wow! Thank you! That sounds like a totally new game. Existing implementation on the BGA is buggy like hell and nobody cares of those bugs. Probably, that's also one of the reasons the game has almost no players nowadays (there are just ~5 players who play it regularly). As a fun of "space and g...

[*] For all games and all leagues, your number of Arena points is reset to 1, and your AES ("Arena Elo") is reset to 1500. Following that, there can be a situation when 2 players of the same Silver-1 league have much different AES: one who did not play any game yet (got it by downgrading ...

Does anybody have a good tactics of playing Nimrod (initial target = 1, free hit of 2pt) against Icarus (initial target = 5) ? It seems almost impossible to win, because Icarus can attack every turn and you may not have enough blocks to stop it. Or even being smarter getting the VPs first turns and ...

The less - the earlier it will be played. For example, player A plays Attack (2) and player B plays Heal (3). The pla...

Ah... you are right.

You can check your ranking by going to the game page and switching from "current season" rankings to "all time" rankings. In Noir, for example, you are second all time. Thank you. I did not know about that "all time" option. In the particular case in Noir, one on the 1...

Are there any limitations to get TOP-1 award? As far as I know, your ELO need to be higher than 300 to get TOP-X awards. Any additional one is needed? I have checked the list of all players who played recently and ever got the TOP-1 award, my current ELO is higher than any of them, but I am still TO...

Currently every season on the Arena the Citizen Arrest mode is always ON.
I suggest to vary it from season to season to involve also the players who does not like this mode.
Since it changes the balance of the game significantly, it would be interesting to try the skills in both variations.

This: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=15950 Elo change depends on game and player number. (And yes, the FAQ is misleading here!) Thank you for the input, I didn't know that. Anyway, I do not see any good logic behind having the c-factor different from 1. If it was made inte...
