Am Tagesende freute ich mich wie Bolle, denn ich konnte zum Abschluss #ARCS von #ledergames spielen. Es war das Grundspiel in Vollbesetzung (also eine Partie zu viert). Es wurde nach der guten Regelerklärung die Startaufstellung bestimmt und dann ging es los. Das Spiel zeigt einige Besonderheiten gegenüber anderen Spielen
- Karten- und Aktionsauswahl und
- Punktemöglichkeit durch Beanspruchung von Zielen
Der Rest ist normale Kost:
- Rennen auf Siegpunkte 9/12

And when I say the 2nd chapter was violent, hoo boy. Ended up with like 11 trophies. Galactic rifles did some work!

Fun afternoon of Arcs today with friends. I was the Rebel with Galactic Rifles, and after a pretty violent 2nd chapter, I managed to establish a Psionics monopoly for an early win in chapter 4. Good fun!

A game of Arcs about to be played, with initial setup just completed.

I played Arcs: Blighted Reach for the first time last week and I am very excited to return to it. I played as the Magnate, so here is my pixelart fan art of the Merchant League. Look at my creepy boys!

It was a learning game, so we're going to start again next time and that will hopefully be a game we complete a full campaign with.

Won my 3 player Arcs pod today after playing with the Leaders and Lore for the 1st time. I was the Elder with Chrome Plating, and managed to secure a Relic monopoly early on, and snuck in a few ambition upsets in the later chapters.

Managed to Ransack the court for like, 8 trophies on the final chapter while the Warlord ambition was live, which was sweet. GGs!

Arcs update! Got off to a solid lead early and got viciously dogpiled by making my fleet a soft target. Prolly should have played a few moves closer to my chest, but still had a blast despite a crushing last place defeat after all was said and done. Excited to play it more to get a bit more comfy with the rules and strategy. #Arcs #Boardgames

What are the rules in Arcs for an extra-dimensional horror suddenly materializing in deep space?

Thank you to Wednesday Books for this advanced copy of Pride or Die!! I'm really looking forward to reading this one! And I LOVE the cover 😍

‼️Pride or Die by CL Montblanc is out 4/15/25‼️

➡️ Synopsis:
In this delightful dark comedy debut, when the members of an LGBTQ+ club find themselves accidentally framed for attempted murder, it's up to them to clear their names before it's too late.

It’s kind of hard to graduate high school when you’re the prime suspect in an attempted murder.

Seventeen-year-old Eleanora Finkel just wants to finish her senior year and get the hell out of Texas. But when her club meeting inconveniently coincides with an attack on the school’s head cheerleader, she and her friends find themselves in the hot seat.

In order to clear their names and ensure the survival of their club for future queer teens, they’ll have to track down the real culprit themselves. But Eleanora is far from a professional detective; she’s riddled with anxiety, annoyingly attracted to the case’s cute victim, and her trusty crochet hook feels insufficient for fighting off a murderer. Can this ragtag group of unlikely sleuths find their way out of an entire freaking murder mystery before one of them is next?

Insgesamt hat mir das Wochenende gut gefallen. Es war neben dem Spielen wieder gut, Menschen zu sehen, die man nun schon das dritte Mal gesehen hat.
Ich fahre zu so etwas trotz alledem immer wieder gerne zu so etwas, damit ich Spiele spielen kann. Leider ist dieses Wochenende einiges ungespielt: #arcs , #foodchainmagnate oder #throughtheages
Ich drücke mir die Daumen, dass es demnächst wieder zu so spannenden und schönen Spielen kommen wird. 11/11

All the Boardgames and TTRPGs I have now. (that are any good) favourite boardgame at the moment is definitely Arcs and I so wanna play more of the campaign version (the bigger box). I shouldn't have adult money, bottom shelf of camera gear and recording equipment coming soon. and this will have to be reworked when Ice unlimited and Yield: Battle for Osha arrive in a few weeks (hopefully) oh and I have no idea where I'll store the arcs roll mat I just ordered.

Taking notes for a custom reference for game set-up of #Arcs.

When teaching the game to new players, I want the new players to get involved in the set-up, and to explain various concepts *while* we set up the game.

The procedure in the rule book is good for carefully explaining *only* the set-up, when first reading the rules.

But that sequence often interrupts a smooth explanation of game concepts; also, it's not the best for getting players involved and dividing up tasks effectively.

I want to improve on that; and also have a concise checklist for set-up that ensures experienced players don't skip anything, but doesn't require opening the rule book.

So I plan to design a one-page #QuickReference that hopefully meets all these criteria.

#BoardGames #TeachingAid #DIY #GrahpicDesign

The board game #Arcs, set up for a 3-player game. Out-of-play sectors are covered with black paper tiles. The Court is on wooden card holders to allow players to better see the cards from across the table. Many components are in custom folded-paper trays.

A small sheet of paper and pen shows written notes taken during this set-up procedure, in a different sequence from the rulebook's steps.
Arcs Blight Reach, solo 3 handed

So anyone who followed me elsewhere knows that I have some big problems with Arcs as a game, but there's still something that is really interesting buried at the core of it that I can't get over. This is like x5 true of the campaign game, which does this intriguing endogenous table versioning via its different fates, varied starting points from last game, and dynamics between them. It's quite an interesting design space and it makes Arcs the "can't quit you" game that I keep poking at despite being repulsed by a lot of other elements about the game that don't fit with my gaming sensibilities or that I genuinely think are bad design and development aspects. I ran a solo 3 hander because I enjoy playing with the texture of the different developing different board situations. While Arcs isn't like great this way, weirdly it doesn't play that badly since the game is so insanely chaotic and tactical that you can't really make long term planning decisions very well even if you knew the other player's cards.

In this game, Partisan, Caretaker, and Founder created a tableau that was quite different than other campaign games I've either played in earnest or soloed---there was no incumbent empire fate that was looking to supercharge the empire, so while the partisan took a little of that role, it led to a board state with few incentives to keep the empire besides some convenience... and Founder immediately wants to bail and gut the empire as best as they can. The game definitely exposed the part of the fates system that a friend has detailed several times; a lot of the tenor, though not the specifics, of the game is set before and between games by the fate choice. This sets it in complete contrast with Wehrle's other design, Oath, which I consider a true masterpiece in this space that does a lot of what this game is doing but a lot better.
