Foreword
This is the best game of its type out right now. Think axis and allies in the star wars universe, and you get an idea. It is two players generally, but can work with 4 if you work in teams. Each side has a unique objective to win; the empire is hunting the galaxy to find and destroy the hidden rebel base, while the rebels are attempting to free planets, and gain influence to their cause. If they succeed before the empire discovers their base, they win. It's a race against time, as each system won by the rebels draws them nearer to victory, but the empire has a full arsenal of weapons, ships, and soldiers and even a death star at their disposal to track down and eliminate the rebellion once and for all. This is an epic cinematic game that takes the fight to a planetary scale. If you love strategy games and are a star wars fan, it is a must have.

This game is epic. It really captures the feel of the original star wars movie with a well-balanced asymmetrical mechanic. The empire is vastly powerful, and the rebellion is struggling to hide and pull off strategic missions. There is something truly satisfying about recruiting luke skywalker and managing to upgrade him to jedi knight. Commanding all the forces of the empire is a heady experience. Great game.

Star Wars: Rebellion Board Game (SW03)"Unboxing: star wars rebellion comes in a good side box and it is heavy. This is because it is packed full of miniatures, card, tokens, two large game boards (that are placed next to each other to make one large one. ) everything is very good quality as one might expect after fantasy flight game s other star wars games. . The miniature are small, made to fit a number of them on sections of the board. These aren t like the x-wing miniatures or imperial assault but are more risk like. The death stars and the super star destroyers are a good size though. . The characters come in the form of standees punched out from the same thick sheet as the tokens. There are both empire and rebel characters that will keep maybe star wars fan happy: the emperor, darth vader, boba fett, luke, leia, and han all are present plus a number of others.

Harry Potter Hogwarts Battle A Cooperative Deck Building Game
The game is a musthave for potter-heads and boardgame fans alike, which comboed pretty nicely with my group of friends and have cumulated in hours of gaming already (got the game a week ago). Each year brings something new to the table and increases the difficulty either through new villain cards, dark event cards, or just general stuff like adding more villains to the table. We have completed games 1-5 and have to agree that games 1-3 is the easiest, with game 4 and 5 being much harder than the preceding games. . Our only complaint is that the hogwarts cards (the cards on your hand) seem to be made from the same quality of cheap playing cards and thus might not last long unless you put them in sleeves, but the box comes with ample space so sleeving them is no problem with storage
A cooperative deck-building game that is progressive, allowing rich game play experiences to unfold with varying levels of difficulty. Ages 11+ players 2-4.

Excellent game even for beginners to the deck-building genre. . One of my favorite things about this game, especially as a hp fan, is that it contains 7 separate decks for each of the books/years. This grants excellent replay-ability at various difficulties and lets you feel in some way like you are progressing through the books again yourself. It has excellent-quality materials for all of the pieces - so you know it wont wear out quickly. . This has become one of my favorite games to play with my family and friends, and it's really accessible even for non-hp fans. A cool thing is that by being a deck-building game it also allows you to play your own style; one game i was building more offensively and trying to take out as many villans as i could, and the next i ended up playing more of a support character, granting allies attacks and extra money and healing others - and i did it with the same character, which means roles aren't imposed if you want to be a non-combative harry. The balance is quite good too, and there is a very satisfying jump in difficulty once you pass the "tutorial years" (book 1/2). . I've only successfully finished year 3 so far after 1 day, so i'll update my review later once i complete all the decks :), but honestly a must buy if you are a hp fan, and a great game even if you don't know anything about the hp universe. -Notice from L. Rhonda, Michigan

Bought this for my fiancee, as she's a huge harry potter fan, but not nearly as much into board games as i am, and i thought the co-operative, increasing difficulty might be a good hook for her. . I was right. The game slowly eases into its rhythm, with seven different modules, each of which introduces new villains and attacks, as well as new spells with which to fend them off. There are new mechanics, too, with each of the four main heroes (ron, harry, hermoine, neville) "growing up" and getting personalized abilities in game three, and then learning proficiencies from their o. W. L. Exams as of game six. Voldemort starts showing up as a rival around game five, and the number of villains and dark arts to contend with at once keeps increasing. . Throughout all of this, the production design is outstanding, from the way the instruction booklet has slots to accommodate the "new" rules for each new "year" (game), to the actual tokens, from the ones that mark petrified foes and the weighty iron baubles that show how much of a locale enemies control. Movie fans will also appreciate that the familiar likenesses of these characters have been used for the art. . The one issue i have with all of this, and where i have to dock a point, is with regards to the balancing of the game. It's meant for two to four players, but doesn't really scale: some of the cards and proficiencies that have effects applying to all characters seem underwhelming in a two-player game, and some of the enemy attacks are too powerful in a four-player game, in which you may constantly get stunned before getting a chance to take a turn. Randomness is a point of games like these, but certain enemy combinations are particularly frustrating (say, dealing with lucius's ability to heal each time a location is attacked along with pettigrew's odds of hitting a location). Moreover, with only six cards visible at once, all of which may be maddeningly out or your price range, you simply might not be able to ever mount a plausible defense. The game is largely nail-biting when it works, which is good, but you might need to add a few mulligan-like house rules of your own to keep things playable, especially with younger children. . All in all, though, there's at least twenty hours of replay value in this box, and kudos to the developers for making it so easy to pack back up, with individual slots for the dice and dividers for each of the different types of cards. And while the deck building might be a bit frustrating (there's no way to get rid of outdated cards so as to streamline your deck for the endgame), and the meta-game might be a little cheap (leave the least harmful enemies in play all the way to the end), it's a great primer for newcomers, and a terrific opportunity for experts to share their passions in an enjoyable harry potter environment.

- U. Colleen*important notice for people purchasing the early first runs of this game. There was a printing error which lead to 4 copies of a card called confundus being put into the box (2 in box 5 and 2 in box 6 i think). The two confundus! cards in box 5 were supposed to be two copies of stupefy! which are missing from some peoples game, including my own. You can contact usaopoly customer service to get replacement cards:. . Usaopoly. Com/game-care-customer-service-inquiry. . This is a highly entertaining game that was well worth the purchase and should be enjoyed for some time to come. I've played with just two and multiple games in groups of four and it's entertaining with both. . As a quick summary - i enjoy deck builders and this is a solid addition to our collection. If you like deck builders, particularly co-operative ones like legendary encounters: aliens, and enjoy harry potter this seems like an inevitable purchase. It also works as an easy way to introduce people to deck building mechanics which should work nicely for families, just be wary of small spoilers for children that haven't read through the books yet. . For a more detailed breakdown of my thoughts so far:. . -the game evolves as you play through the chapters/games. The game has a built in tutorial for the first few games where it introduces you to the general mechanics of deck builders and the basics of this particular game. As you progress through each chapter you essentially continue to add more villains, more purchasable cards and more dark arts events. If you're familiar with deck builders or are a savvy bunch you could easily start on game 4 or 5. The cards are all marked for which game they belong to so that if, at any point, you want to reset the game back you can easily do so. Game 7 represents the ultimate full form of the game with the full complement of villains, dark arts events cards and the couple other unique features introduced throughout the entire series including game 7. . -the game will get longer as you progress through chapters. You continue to add in villains with each chapter meaning the number of villains that you need to defeat is also increased. People have suggested on board game geek that it plateaus out at about 1. 5-1. 75 hours with the very first game maybe being half an hour. . -it both does and does not follow the events of the books and movies. As you progress through chapters it will introduce villains and dark arts events from the harry potter series. However the game doesn't really try to tell a story and most of the villains don't come up in order. As a result it doesn't really give away major pieces of the plot. Regardless if you have a child that is reading through the books currently the best suggestion would be to only play through the games that they have read up to (game 1 matching roughly to book 1) mainly so they can relate to the villains and events that occur. If you want to play beyond that point you can also look through the cards and maybe just remove those cards that you think might give too much away. . -the game tends to be a bit harder with 4 people than with 2. Some of the events and villains affect all characters simultaneously which makes the game slightly harder for a full group. I think overall it balances well for two players still since you also have less hero powers to make use of. It may not be the most difficult co-operative game out there, but make no mistake, the game can kick your butt pretty well depending on the villain order. You need to carefully balance damage output, heals and removing villain influence. . -there is no player elimination. I don't like player elimination, especially for semi-long games. This game handles that aspect nicely, there are still health pools to track for the characters but when you hit zero you aren't eliminated. Instead you discard some cards for that turn and it helps the villains, but you are not eliminated. You bounce back to full health for the next turn. If everyone keeps getting stunned every other turn, however, you will lose. So you still need to be careful. . -production quality is quite good. The pieces are all well done. The theme flows through all the cards and pieces. Overall the game mechanics, theme and cards just simply work. Very nice box and board. It feels like the designers are true fan of the series. . -several groups of friends already want to play this game just from seeing a picture posted online. It has that excitement factor just looking at the game, which i think is a huge plus. . -setup and game play is quick. You can set up a game in under 10 minutes and get going. Turns tend to be straightforward and are quick to resolve. . The game is easy to teach. The rules are easy to understand and everything is basically explained on the cards themselves. This helps immensely with teaching the game and being able to just play rather than making sure you have all the rules just right before each turn. This is a fantastic gateway game since you can modify the difficulty level while still introducing some major designer game concepts (like deck building) to a group. The co-operative nature of the game means you can actually help other players without ruining the game. . So should you buy it? . . If you already own a ton of designer board games (think like 20+ especially deck builders or maybe cooperative games). You may not get a ton out of this particular game unless you want/need the harry potter theme or if the game mechanics are drastically different from anything you already own. I think this game does what it does well, but nothing is especially groundbreaking. For these people that already own a lot of games i'd suggest waiting to see online plays or for reviews to come out from your favorite reviewers before purchasing. Rahdo has a nice run through of this game and dice tower has also covered it just to name a couple. . For those that have more limited designer game collections. Are you looking to try out (or think you might like) cooperative board games? are you looking for a good introduction to deck building games? do you love the harry potter universe or have family members that do? if you answer yes to all of these it's an obvious purchase. If you answer yes to even one it's also probably a great purchase. . I bought it because i love cooperative games and there are limited cooperative deckbuilders. For me and my relatively small collection of games it ranks right up there along with my other cooperatives like pandemic and ghost stories in terms of fun. It probably doesn't have the huge replay value of a game like pandemic, but it also doesn't need to. I'm exceedingly happy with my purchase and the significant other is too, and that's all i really care about.
Update. Online store sent a replacement and this game had all the cards. Had fun playing the first game. Very well made. Just make sure all the cards and pieces are in the game first. . The game was a christmas present. We were very excited to play except after reading the instructions several times and watching "how to play" on youtube we finally realized cards were missing in the "game 1" card deck. It had only 1 of 2 location cards and no hero cards in the game 1 deck of cards. We have not played the game so we can't say if it's worth the big expense but it is very complicated to learn how to play and impossible to play if cards are missing. Online store is shipping a replacement so we will cross our fingers and hope all the cards for the 7 decks arrive this time. For a game this expensive all the items for the game should be included.

Blood Rage
In blood rage, each player controls their own viking clanÍs warriors, leader, and ship. Ragnar k has come, and itÍs the end of the world! itÍs the vikingsÍ last chance to go down in a blaze of glory and secure their place in valhalla at odinÍs side! for a viking there are many pathways to glory. You can invade and pillage the land for its rewards, crush your opponents in epic battles, fulfill quests, increase your clan's stats, or even die gloriously either in battle or from ragnar k, the ultimate inescapable doom. Most player strategies are guided by the cards drafted at the beginning of each of the three game rounds (or ages). These ñgodsÍ giftsî grant you numerous boons for your clan including: increased viking strength and devious battle strategies, upgrades to your clan, or even the aid of legendary creatures from norse mythology. They may also include various quests, from dominating specific provinces, to having lots of your vikings sent to valhalla. Most of these cards are aligned with one of the norse gods, hinting at the kind of strategy they support. For example, thor gives more glory for victory in battle, heimdall grants you foresight and surprises, tyr strengthens you in battle, while the trickster loki actually rewards you for losing battles, or punishes the winner. Players must choose their strategies carefully during the draft phase, but also be ready to adapt and react to their opponentsÍ strategies as the action phase unfolds. Battles are decided not only by the strength of the figures involved, but also by cards played in secret. By observing your opponentÍs actions and allegiances to specific gods, you may predict what card they are likely to play, and plan accordingly. Winning battles is not always the best course of action, as the right card can get you even more rewards by being crushed. The only losing strategy in blood rage is to shy away from battle and a glorious death!
