SKY TEAM: You can't take the sky from me!

[slipperlobster]

I am really excited about this game, but only play Asynchronously. Do you think it will play well async? Or is real time the only way to go with this (in which case I will wait until I can pick it up IRL)

I REALLY think this needs to be played in real time. You take turns placing dice and it takes FOREVER if you don't play real time. I started one game and placed the first die and now i've waiting on the other player for 2 days to place his first die. And then we each have three more dice to place and THEN finally it's the end of round one. You could play like but your game is going to take forever. Just my thoughts.

Friends and I are playing asynchronously and IMO, since it is intended to play with no communication, it's _better_ that way. May want to find different people to play with

Yeah, not really cool to use someone else's intellectual property that way. Seems like the kind of thing that gets you a Cease & Desist letter.

Yes and no for live play! Been playing with a friend of mine turn based. We try to do a round at a time liveish but it gives us some flexibility with time this way. The round itself is quick to play and then we wait to do our communication for the next round till we are both somewhat livesh again.

Great game and really enjoying it! Learned it here late last week.

For a forum post?

I too agree it works great turn based.

However I noticed that, having just crashed and burned at one table, that
- you are not able to load the final game state
- you cannot load the game replay

I had to message my friend and asked what happened.

Never seen this before on BGA. Is this a bug? Or are those things not supposed to work?
