For everyone who's interested in Forbidden Stars: Samuel Bailey, one of the designers, is creating a new one (obviously with a new setting) and it is finally happening. Probably still going to take 2-3 years until it's done. But after years of trying, it's happening, so there's that. Apart from that it's quite amazing what expansions the community has created for FS.

Okay, two more of my favorites in this group: Blood Rage and Quest for El Dorado. I've cooled just a bit on QfED unless I'm playing it with a group that already knows the game. If you're new to the game (and I was in this position in my first few games) you can get so far behind that you just give up trying to win but still have to go through the motions, which can take a while, and it can sour the experience. Luckily I liked it enough to keep playing and it's more fun once you get to the longer routes/layouts. I also want to check out Picture Perfect now. The box art turned me off initially, but I like the gameplay so going to look into that one.

Ordered Fallen Land after seeing your review and this video. Cost me an absolute fortune in Canada but after playing tons of Euros recently I feel that I needed a pure Ameritrash game. This one definitely looks to fit the bill. Wondering about whether I need the expansion already but that’s another $70 odd dollars. May have to wait. Do you have the expansion and what’s your thoughts on it?

@@BoardGameBollocks Thanks. I don’t think the Descendants expansion does come in the big box version I bought. It comes with a couple of expansions from the first edition but not the new one. That’s the one I’m wondering about. Has some town event cards which are supposed to be much better. Whatever, looks like there’s tons of content in the big box anyway. Just being a spoilt child at this point.

No the descendants expansion was separate. I assumed you bought the first edition and were looking for the expansions that were released for it. There’s alternative factions and simply more content. I wouldn’t say it was essential as the core game has so much stuff.

The main point of the expansion would be the support for up to 8 players. I've the expansion and except for some of the knights we rarely use most of the stuff. And I wouldn't cough up the 250$ noble knights currently asks for it.

I've played the expansion a few times. Adds a few nice things and more players, though I'm not sure I'd ever actually want to play with 7 or 8 people again. I seem to remember overall it made the game harder for the non-traitors. If it were available at normal expansion prices, I'd get it. For what it will likely go for given OOP status, ignore it

@BoardGameBollocks Did Eric Lang get in a scrap with you when you were both kids in kindergarten? 😂 Blood Rage is all right but I think Chaos in the Old World is better. None of this "Loki get yourself killed to win rubbish". As for Blood Rage's theme they're clans fighting each other at the Apocalypse to have a glorious death. There's no colonization at all in this - if anything it's a quite horrific depiction of end times for the clans.

The comparison of tribal warfare to colonialism and imperialism is very common amongst European countries. For example, in Spain they often portray colonialism and eradication of entire native civilizations in Central and South America as positive, since tribal warfare and pillaging between them in pre-colonial era was present anyways.
