Re: When do the top players usually play ?

The thing is it's not completely random. You will lose some messy games, but it's an art to not lose in tough situations against unreliable plays that you have trouble anticipating.

Re: When do the top players usually play ?

I disagree. Facing good players helps with learning the basic stuff, but watching their replays closely, trying to predict their moves, helps more (and you don't need to wait for them). But getting really good at this game actually only happens when you can win fairly consistently against weak and u...

Re: Honest opinions on 3p edifice

Do you possess the absolute truth? I'm sorry if it sounded like that; I meant it's what I feel like, but I have a lot of reasons. Some are already written here, on other threads, and also take a look at the current arena rankings, notice how 4 of the very best players of the website all time are th...

Re: Proposition for Arena ranking: should inactivity cause rating decay?

I think this has been talked to death on various games on the website for years. I don't think anything is gonna change now because people are used to these issues. Arena is about encouraging addictive behavior, not about fair competition. I don't like it even if sometimes I'm in the mood and play s...

Re: How does Ur night side work?

You automatically get one, but it only counts for the effect, not for participation. For instance, at 3p, if you build without participating and only 1 other player participates, the edifice is a failure and you just get protection from the penalty (which can be useless or important it depends). If ...

Re: Highest score

Oh, wait for Armada...
With all 4 expansions I think 150 is realistic, and 200 possible.

Re: Opinions on Archimedes

I think the difference is investment in those from the designers / publishers.
I don't know much about Hargrave, but I know for sure that Bauza doesn't do much about 7 wonders anymore (he just spent too much time on it already).

Re: Opinions on Archimedes

Yes, he's extremely powerful. It would be nice to have an option that removes a few of the leaders that are seen as unbalancing, as some other games on BGA have similar options (Wingspan for instance). I'm hoping that the "game gurus" for 7 Wonders are already having this discussion. The ...

Re: Honest opinions on 3p edifice

I already said it in the past and I stand by it : this is the best version of the game, period. Some people don't understand it because it's unforgiving. Some good players will tell you that it's "more random", LOL. If you like 7 wonders and what it can offer strategically, 3p edifice is t...
