Can't Stop
« on: November 28, 2013, 09:04:51 pm »
This is such a simple game it barely needs moderating and it's easy to learn and play, but thanks to the dice rolling on the forum it should be easy enough to PBF as well. And it's not the most serious of games but it can be competitive, so there's that.

It's one of those iconic games that's actually surprisingly good (apparently) but it's one I've never played so I want to fix that.

Rather than trying to explain the rules I'll just point at this review on BGG which has a "Flow of Play" section explaining the rules well enough.

Anyone interested?

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Well, three players, that ought to do.

Here's the game sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApPT0N9WtHcKdGFIVTNXSzhDS0NtMml6amxSNHRTM3c#gid=1
Please choose a colour when you first stop.

I'll roll for turn order. Alphabetical so 1=Arch, 2=Davio, 3=Tables.

Rolled 1d3 : 2, total 2


And alphabetical again for who goes second.

Rolled 1d2 : 1, total 1

That means Davio is first, Archetype is second, I'm third.

Starting, I guess we just keep adding posts so the "this roll has been tampered with" doesn't show up...

Okay, first roll:

Pfew, at least I get to move my 9

I'm stopping for now, it's good to have at least some guys on the board.
Final positions:
7: 2
8: 3
9: 3

I'll pick Green as my color.
