I saw this on boardgame geek...might be interesting.

The bits look pretty cool.

The coop and solo scenarios sounds pretty cool.

I call the dragon guy!
Seriously, this looks different enough to pique my interest.

As long as I get to be the dragon guy. :D

Then you're not looking at The Evidence Thread for non-clix releases, are you? WHY NOT?

Speaking of which, what exactly is a "euro-style" strategy game? I'm not very well-versed in all the different board game variations out there, I must admit.

Not buying it unless I get to play an Orc. Loved playing Orcs in the old MK.

It's a bit of a vaguely defined term, but basically means game that focuses on strategy and player interaction over luck and outright competition.

Yes, Boardgamegeek.com would be a good place to learn a lot more than anyone ever needs to about what a "euro" game is. Suttkus' summary is pretty good; just offering research data for anyone interested.

You clean it less often, and it's always taking off its packaging.

I.....

I didn't see it, I'll be good, really, I will.......

And here I am constantly checking into this thread http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?t=308278



Thanks for all the "Evidence thread" work that you do!

I oughta look at it even closer:

There is a Non-Heroclix Releases link right there.

All-right, I'll let it slide, this time.

That's what she said.

American-Style generally has the strategy head-to-head and presents its self as player-vs-player tension. Perhaps a lot of mechanic but primarily everything is straight forward and use dice or simple luck mechanics to add randomness. Some good examples:

Risk
Axis and Allies
History of the World
Hammer of the Scots
War of the Ring

Where as Euro style tends to be more Traingular in tension. They also tend to use other mechanics for randomness besides just dice. They often feature card and tiles pulled from a bag. Resource Management and Work placement are also more common mechanics in Euro Games. Some good examples:

Settlers of Cattan
Carcasone
Ra
Power Grid
Seven Wonders
Agricola
Race for the Galaxy
Dungeon Lords
Dominion

One game I discovered and can manage to get family and friends (non-heroclix players all) is Cleopatra and the Society of Achitects. Everyone enjoys it.
