![]() ![]() Still, she’s able to just hoover up the clues, and I like that!Įxcitingly, I have 11xp to spend, as I haven’t yet upgraded the decks this campaign. ![]() Playing a scenario with only one enemy in the whole deck is a bit of a waste, however, though when that enemy did show up, he was in his element! Mandy Thompson, the researcher, is a clue-gathering powerhouse, and has the ability to dig deeper when searching her deck, meaning I built her with a lot of ‘search your deck’ cards, but so far I don’t really think that has come up in games. Tony Morgan, the bounty hunter, has the ‘bounty contracts’ effect that allows him to put bounties on enemies as they are revealed and, when that enemy is defeated, claim said bounty as a resource. The investigators that I’m playing are quite interesting, both from the Dream-Eaters (coincidentally!) with some interesting abilities. I’m excited to see what everything has to offer, at any rate, as I am to see what I’ve been missing all these years!! Author spalanz Posted on Categories board games Tags Elder Sign, Fantasy Flight Games, game day, Lovecraft Leave a comment on Elder Sign: Unseen Forces Dunwich, once more I have only played that twice, and Omens of Ice has only seen a single game, with none of the others having had a look in. But there’s a big part of me that really appreciates these sorts of expansions, so I always feel the need to fly that flag!Īt any rate, I’ve now chalked up a game with Unseen Forces, so up next will be Gates of Arkham, the first of the expansions to break the mould. Of course, there are new mechanics, such as the Blessed/Cursed thing that is a part of so many Arkham Files games, as well as tweaks to the mythos deck, and so on. Unseen Forces, then, is almost a “pure” expansion in that it gives us more of what we enjoyed the first time around. Pretty much every expansion in the game line following this one changes the mechanics wildly, moving us out of the Museum and adding additional layers of complexity. I had a game with the first expansion, Unseen Forces, which was actually pretty good, I must say! I’ve already written up a proper game-day review of the expansion, which you can read here, but suffice it to say, this expansion has got a lot to offer for anyone who enjoys the base game. Slightly longer than twelve months on, I’m finally getting round to making this happen. We played Elder Sign twice, then promptly moved on. Remember about twelve months ago, I talked about wanting to play more board games, and even had the buy-in from my wife for joining this endeavour with a semi-regular games night suggested? I was very much fired up to get round to exploring the whole Elder Sign collection, and then promptly did next to nothing to make that happen! A post shared by Mark week, I decided to right some wrongs □
