Instant Win card removal option?

Post by LDB62 »

I'd like an option to remove the Instant Win card ($14 card for a 12 roll). The 8 roll and 6 roll cube mover cards make it too easy to win.

At the very least everyone should get to make their card choices and buys for the turn before it instantly ends the game (remove the "instantly" feature).

That's a three card combo that has to fire off 4 or 5 times.

It's not overpowered.

It rarely presents itself as an option. If it does, I simply hate-draft and shut it down

https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=62199 is in the queue for allowing all players to finish their turn before the "instant win", which would be more balanced for turn-based play.

Yes that's a powerful combo but it requires multiple very expensive cards to pull it off. And it's pretty boom or bust to try and set that combo up, since you have to spend all that money on a card for the least-rolled slot, that generates no VPs, no gold, and no income.

The player who buys "You Win" will usually either get first place or last place (in 4-player), very rarely anything in between.

I do agree about allowing players to finish their actions when a player activates it, and that has been discussed elsewhere as Shazzypaz noted
