Can you show us some more by the time ? I was able to surprise my girlfriend with those. The end of the story was such that things look rather… well, I am not going to spoil anything. But there is no direct player interaction (stealing from or directly hurting another player). Thanks for the reply. I’m glad you all are having so much fun with it. There were 48 mini-games to play, which surpasses any game I have played on Big Fish to date. Once I have had a chance to absorb the impact of this campaign, I will put together a proper review and post it on BGG. Thanks Jamey. :D. I don’t really “get” legacy games, so please tell me if I have understood it correctly: If a player makes som poor choices and builds some buildings that do not work together well, then forever after any player who has the misfortune of getting that player mat will be at a disadvantage. I do not have a gaming group and find the idea of legacy mechanics AWESOME, so even the hint that this might work for solo play is amazing. I wish I would have been warned that there was a heat sensitive item in the box because I wouldn’t have left it in my car during spring and summer days. There’s no power or Sol Ring. I really hope this is true. Hmm funny…I tried the same thing Troy…didn’t work for me either. Heath: That is one of the reasons I recommend playing with the same people from start to finish–you have to learn more rules if you jump into the middle of the campaign. My girlfriend loved the campaign and loves this game. Need help? Re Essen: which partner will have Charterhouse? That’s more a matter of personal philosophy, but the simple substitution for Day of Judgment is an easy one to make if you’re not sure what to cut. We played the original campaign with 2 Automa and we’ve never looked back. Love it! Two Runs – Two sets of stickers? My one complaint after playing Pandemic Legacy is that the stickers would come off quite easily and it ended up that we would take a picture of our board after we played just in case something came off. With the help of the card list link from the FAQ we were ok. Maybe that’s something to put in the Dutch errata? Blink effects may be optimal at one mana, but is that really the best way to design them? https://www.facebook.com/groups/charterstoneboardtrading/. Love this game! (We did some slight rule modifications for us since we love variety, so we put buildings on the front and back side of the islands which worked out for some interesting choices later in the game). We named our village after our cat that we lost this past spring, so the surprise at the end of game 6 was really very touching and so, so cool. We’re not looking for workarounds to not make this a legacy game. Awesome looking game! thanks. Is there a preorder available? Sorry my English! We do like our Scythe. Well you’ve certainly piqued my curiosity! We made sure that each charter had a way of getting a minion, one way of getting income and a building where panic cubes could be spent. After that the game is unusable and you need to buy it again to play. any release schedules for this yet? I’m always happy to hear when our games bring families together. I think that so far I haven’t been as wild about the legacy “rebrandings” as others, but I appreciate the extra work that gets put into designing a legacy game. I received this game for my birthday from my wife about a month ago. Sneak Attack and Oath of Druids are some combination of not good and oppressive/not fun, so I wouldn’t spend much time thinking on them. Really enjoyed it. She took nearly five minutes to make the initial decision, then she was positively _agonizing_ over the long term choice for a half hour! The solution didn't work and we went back and fourth about four times. This looks so freaking cool. We’re gauging interest for a deluxe pack (separate from the game) that would include some nice stuff like metal coins and a recharge pack for the game to be used on the back side of the board, exactly as you said. I could be talked into cutting the Swords of X and Y, but they haven’t been too problematic yet. Found insideIn this book he offers a comprehensive guide to crowdfunding, demonstrating that it can be a powerful way for entrepreneurs to grow their businesses by building community and putting their customers first. Quality tested and virus free. Thanks! but after they continue to do it several times more, you figure it out and go on with it. Hi Jamey. and decide each game which one to develop more/ you give the better chance to win with? They emailed me back with a solution. Scythe, Tapestry, and Viticulture all feature engine building too. :). OK… so my girlfriend and I played Game #1 of Charterstone today. Thank you for getting those out to me so quickly! I’ll also point out that Armageddon is an honorable mention here. Finally i’m not sure if you’re the right person to ask but one of my friend in the play group to play will buy but given that I am AMAZED at your games specifically Scythe and Viticulture, i’m not sure it worth and sensible to buy 1 as well and play it as solo with 5 automata. If you have questions in future games, I’d recommend posting them in the Charterstone Facebook group–you’ll get a fast answer there even if I’m not available. :). thanks for clarification. : ). The stories in fighting games are frequently viewed as inconsequential, but the complicated tale in BlazBlue is a big part of its appeal. You could technically play with 6 Automas and no humans. Also, Charterstone is meant to continue to be played after the campaign is over–the permanence is a huge part of the game. Fireblast is only really good when it’s ending games, so I understand the aversion to that one a lot more. Can you even do that play once with someone and then play again with other people or is it like once you start with someone you can only pick up where you left of? I’m sorry about that! My experience has been that over time, more and more cards that completely brick-wall the red decks have shown up and I’ve struggled to consistently win with red decks in good-stuff Cubes. If you click on “preferred retailer” (within the main text), you’ll be taken to a list of hundreds of retailers, all of whom are accepting pre-orders. Travis:Thanks! 5. again later. The story line is also good. Jamey, aren’t the rules for Automa here (at least in part): https://stonemaiergames.com/games/charterstone/rules/. The mechanism… sure. Viticulture was called Trellis early on, Euphoria was called Dystopia, and Charterstone was originally called Cornerstone. Not sure what that would add to the production cost. I posted an unfavorable review a few days ago. Yes, you’ll continue to use them, but they’re randomized for post-campaign games. I couldn’t agree more–not just for my games, but any game. From my perspective, the four-drop slot looks too crowded for Seraph of the Scales to contribute much. I know that Matagot will soon have it in Europe, but they will still need to ship it to Canada. Mystic Vale was their first to use is. That is fantastic, thanks for the quick reply. We put our order in today :D https://store.401games.ca/catalog/8317561/charterstone-pre-order-2017. The interactive red cards like Lightning Bolt and Glorybringer end up in a wide range of decks and color combinations, and I find cards of this nature most desirable. I liked the demo on this game so I purchased it when I only played 15 minutes of it. :). (The FAQ link above takes us to a closed group.). I wish we had started with the Automa in Game #3… my girlfriend felt that the first two games with them were too accelerated (i.e., progress track). Thanks for your enthusiasm! I’m glad you all are having fun with it! https://stonemaiergames.com/lessons-learned-from-quitting-kickstarter-as-a-creator-part-1/. We shall see. 2. :) To my knowledge, it is the first village-building legacy game. Especially after I read in the reviews that there aren't any dark and gory things in it. You can get updates about the digital edition of Charterstone here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CharterstoneDigital/, Hi Jamey, The best RTS games on PC in 2021. Hi there Jamey! We are really looking forward to seeing how that is going to play out! Hi Is it possible to get it shipped to sweden? I have an eager playtest group at NKU. With the art showing floating islands, and the concept of a Forever King, would it be fair to say this is a fantasy, or at least fairy tale, universe but with no spell casting (at least, castable spells by the playable characters?). Do I have to pre-order it? * I have the Recharge Pack Can’t wait to start this with my gaming group. I cannot even express how excited I am by this. SO excited. Thanks for the report, Rupert! Over time I’ll try to reveal enough that it helps people make an informed decision (but without spoiling anything big). Or if we are four players that starts this game and one of them goes away for a while (let´s say that he misses four sessions), would it be possible for him/her to join in again? Please, Please give Roberta and I a chance to be a tester. Regarding the broader question of whether there are any cards not featured that should be considered, a lot of that was covered incidentally in my suggested swaps. After Game 1, you may not have many cards in that deck, but it will soon be quite full (especially since you’ll need to discard cards from your personal supply after Game 2). If you play a round with someone then later want to play again with more people will they be lost because the game isn’t being started at the beginning?? I’d love to do a mod on Tabletop Simulator for testing. If so, should I add more big creatures like Woodfall Primus and Bogardan Hellkite? This means we couldn’t even progress past the first step in the game. If you have played several times and want to try a new strategy, you must buy a new copy. This doesn’t make the game unplayable because with some trial and error, you can make sense of everything, but it does make it highly inaccessible for new players. thank you very much! So I guess you have a winner here, Herr Stegmaier! I have a distinct feeling we will be ordering the Recharge pack at the end of the campaign and seeing what happens if we play through it again! I can’t explain without using spoilers but anyone who has played will know what I mean when I say that one token in particular gets spent completely by at least one player and the game ticks by very VERY quickly after that. Players can choose to include one or both expansions in a Lords of Waterdeep game. The expansions also allow the addition of a sixth player. The Skullport expansion adds a new resource to the game: Corruption. I love your games and i also love the way you created your company. Thank u! Keep it up! Also, the stickers start on cards that must be shuffled, so even if vinyl stickers worked on the board, you wouldn’t be able to put them back on the cards (which have important information on them). John: Thanks! But, when you are done, let me know if you plan to keep the board and the resulting non-legacy game. It has lots of mini games and they are pretty easy.

Half way through the campaign! Of this crowd, I imagine that Sublime Epiphany is the least offensive in an environment of this high a power level, but I’d take a serious look at the other three and start asking how many games are made more fun by their contributions. I can see that would be really annoying really fast. Have you considered making other denominations too? How many players is the AI/automa? I`m sorry if gave that impression. Salman: There’s indirect player interaction like in most worker-placement games: If I place my worker on a building, you can’t use that building until I move my worker. You can keep playing either side after you finish the campaign, or you can buy another board from us. Richard: There is an element of Automation that will ensure that inactive charters continue to grow. I’m Italian and I can’t find anyone who played half game….

When he builds those buildings, should they go in his land or the land they match with? We would have been using four total Automas, to ensure that the game was being played with six active charters. Combine their flair for making beautiful, elegant games with the idea of a village-building legacy game with an infinitely replayable end result? It’s a legacy game with a very similar theme and feel (but completely different mechanisms). There have been some fantastic surprises already and we’re all excited to find out what else is hiding in this box. To me, the fact people have hidden abilities makes me think we’d be able to wipe the game and start over for a totally different chain of experiences. If it were up to me, no Cube that I play would feature the card. When it ended, the 7-year-old said, “I love Charterstone!” The feeling was mutual. Hi Julien: I’m only in control of the English version, and I don’t know when the French version will be released. I’m not sure yet if Charterstone is for me, but I look forward to learning more. Please look closely at your cards and let me know the card numbers 1-X) that are printed the wrong way. It should be very clear where the sticker cards stop and the regular cards begin. Middle aged female ready here….Have played Scythe twice with no experience with those types of games. Even absent a blink theme, Solitude will carry its own weight in a creature-heavy environment, and Slash the Ranks is an awesome tool to help control decks stabilize against a combination of creatures and planeswalkers. * You have got to love the English language when you are attempting not to end a sentence with a preposition. From there, Doug posed the following questions that I saw fit to lump together in terms of analysis: In my mind these questions are all about more or less the same thing. I have picked up a recharge pack and was hoping to start another campaign with my family before we finish the first 12 games. * I am designing a new Automa book to better organize info for post campaign Because the core mechanism of Charterstone is that you can place a worker on buildings in ANY charter, even if one charter ends up slightly better crafted than the others, it’s not imbalanced. This year I am ending a hiatus on going to Essen and Charterstone just tickles my fancy. Similarly, Tinker is another of those cards where somebody is unhappy when it goes on the stack. This looks awesome! The Commander VS crew reveals the "Coven Counters" Midnight Hunt Commander deck. Showdown of the Skalds, Vorinclex, Valki, Escape to the Wilds)? I am quite certain that this is something you guys have already thought of, so I am not worried. Entomb, Reanimate, and of course Griselbrand are definitely power level outliers, but for these higher-powered Cubes Reanimator is just something that a lot of players both expect and enjoy.
