I went fully insane and my madness changed my victory conditions to killing someone with an edged weapon. The only edged weapon was a nice that got left in a burning room and then destroyed when that room got zapped by the dark side.<br />PeterPeter Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14118894381672707297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430216265579762068.post-62728155441835357222016-09-05T14:14:25.989-07:002016-09-05T14:14:25.989-07:00The Mansions game sounds great Clint!

You do not NEED the app but it does make it easier to play, as it sorts out all the clues and locations etc. The other players who had played that scenario before said it was completely different by the 2nd Room as the App had changed things around without any need for the players to know.<br /><br />As for Zombicide. All I will say is stay tuned.<br /><br />And Superheroes I have an idea for a show game which would look very interesting and might even make magazines if I can ever be bothered to make it.

"Zombicide" is a big hit wiv me, as you know, so I'm really pleased you've finally taken the plunge and bought it.

I am familiar with "Mansions of Madness" although I have never played it. Zombicide, however, is my favourite game and so much fun to play... even when you lose. Always learn from your mistakes. A classic mistake that newbies make is to split up. Only ever do this if you are well armed and have a clear exit strategy. I'm sure you'll do better next time. I'm glad you enjoyed both games, even if they didn't go as planned. Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.com
