David Turczi and Nigel Buckle have done it again. The solo bot is really easy to run and gets easier as you play (make sure you print the cards out though!). The game is challenging and full of lots of unique combos and the nations each feel so unique and dripping with theme. The paths to victory are many and the strategy is deep. I expect this to sit on my table for to a long time. I suspect that the game will shine at 1 and 2 player - but if players are aware of the downtime they're signing up for, it could be really strong at any player count. Expect a long game though. Solo is roughly 1 to 2 hours.
