There is also an infinitely repeatable combo, where player A gets 4+ glory each time, and player B gets 2. So what makes this combo especially interesting is that it can be sensible for both players to repeat it to improve their end placement. Player A needs Tyr's prowess, Tyr's challenge, and Thor'...

I watched full replay just now, you played a great age 2 and nicely took advantage of an uncommon situation where Ygg was empty. You said you made many mistakes, but looked to me like everybody made a lot of mistakes, like usually is the case in this game. :D It might have looked like blue had good ...

Got this idea from this post https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49948 by branchilo. I thought it might be fun to go through a replay of mine too, and comment on my reasoning for each important play. Maybe it would be helpful for some players who do know the rules, but struggle a bit wi...

Nice work on the commented playthrough, I watched only the 1st draft but that was already interesting. This inspired me to do one of these too, maybe from a game where I use a strategy that I consider under utilised among arena players. You are so right that no 2 games played are the same! Optimal p...

With 3 players the scores tend to be lower than 4p, because almost half the quests and some scoring cards are missing (Loki's Wrath and Thor's Conquest I think). 150+ is most often a win in 3p, though by no means guaranteed. In 4p I'd say everyone, or at least the winner, gets about 25 more, but I h...

Nice work, this will surely be useful for many. I do disagree with some of the card valuations though, when it comes to current meta, and I'm talking 4p arena meta here: Age 1: Loki's trickery isn't that good as a 1st pick I think, as if you try to use it, you will mostly likely just end up helping ...

You are right, it clearly says that you can choose to treat it as +3 after cards are revealed, and if you don't, it's just +0. I wouldn't call the current functionality a bug per se, but most likely an erroneous interpretation of the rules by the dev. Then again, this card and the age 3 version with...

I’m also starting to have doubts about the Great Wall module. The idea is good, but the wall action is just too strong and flexible, when you take into account that the wall is scored 3 times! For it to be roughly on par with other actions, I think it would be necessary to either a) remove wall scor...

Ok thanks, good to know. So Mini exp 2 actually isn't available on BGA, and hence no option to inlude it, but we can still apply its occupation ban lists?

Play with all islands : if I uncheck this, does it remove some islands completely, or does it just randomize a smaller subset from the full set of islands? Use mini expansion 2 occupation ban list : What even is mini expansion 2, and why is there no checkbox whether to include it? I guess the answe...
