Joey isn’t the only one who loves ThunderCats! It would be so cool if CMON had given us rules for the ThunderCats Zombicide minis to be used in this game. They’d blend right in with MotU.

ThunderCats was definitely the better show IMO - especially after the first/second season, with better characters (mostly), more story (not just one-off episodes), and three competing factions (not just two). I bet CMON could convince Mattel to let them create a stand-alone sequel using Thundercats but allowing to mix&match the characters! That'd be rad.

For me, this is the perfect Masters of the Universe game. Note that you can also mix factions. You can have He-Man, Skeletor, and Hordak versus Sorceress, Beast Man, and She-Ra. It's truly an amazing mix-and-match system. I love it! Easily my favourite skirmish game as of now. Also, best player count is 1 vs. 2.

Oh, and the rulebook is definitely subpar (possibly the worst CMON has released for any game). It's not actually badly put together from a design perspective, it's just lacking so many little details... so logic and BGG are where it's at.

I'm glad I got this one for its nostalgia factor alone, but there's also a simple, FUN game there! I've played the Rescue scenario twice multiplayer and our team (the non-controller player team) got crushed both times. Maybe we just sucked, but the controller felt overpowered. Still, I had fun losing the game. The AI rules definitely needs some clarity. Spent more time I would like to admit reading through unofficial FAQs and forums. Despite that, the game is still fun solo! Here's hoping CMON releases an official errata document or revised rulebook (and soonish).

I really wanted this game back when it was announced. Then I realised that it was only available in the US, Canada and Australia and since I live in Europe we wouldn't be able to back it on Kickstarter. We could however back Fields of Eternia by Archon. Fast forward one year later I did receive the Archon game, but decided to sell it. And I had forgotten all about the CMON game. But after watching this review I really want to play (and own) this game. But unless your willing to pay a huge amount of money for the game AND shipping that's likely never gonna happen 😕

The game is fun. We've had no problem with the rule book so far. I don't care about the IP at all and I've enjoyed it. Great components. The dashboards are great for handling the cards and cubes. Sleeved cards fit just fine in them. The models paint up very well. The number of scenarios is a plus. The game mode options are great. Being able to play either as the heroes or the villains is a lot of fun. Beastman can put in work. So far the heroes feel different from each other. Orko, Teela, Man-at-Arms, and He-Man all feel very different from each other, have interesting things they can do, and aren't slotted into a specific turn order. Teela and Orko are S tier.

It took me ENTIRELY too long to realize the video name was a pun, not some esoteric reference to like... the Tower of Eternia or some nonsense. FWIW, Thundercats WOULD be the obvious pick for an expansion for this. The Black Plague expansions indicate that CMON has the license, and they wouldn't have to go through Renegade, who has the licenses for everything else that was listed. I mean, I guess BraveStarr would be an option... I don't think that has the reach a company would want though.
