Having hatched in the main Dom3 thread, it’s time I created a thread for the first Small World PBF game! As of this writing, the following members have expressed interest in playing in Game 1:
To keep these games moving, players should aim to submit their turns no later than 24 hours after it becomes their turn.
Small World can be played with either 2, 3, 4, or 5 players. Game 1 will be a 5-player game, so I would need the above players to reply to this thread confirming they would like to play in this game. If others are interested in playing, reply to this thread and you’ll be added to the list in case one of the players above you decides not to play.
Confirm me. I love Small World, and I think it’ll be grand to play it with a bunch of you boyz. Can you link us again to GIMP, or whatever it is that we need to use?
Exciting. Love a bit of Small World (though I suck). I shall watch with interest to see how the PBF works and what bizzare races you all end up with. It’s good that you’re sticking with Vanilla so it’ll be easier to keep up with - I was only aware of three expansions, and I’ve never played any of them as they’re a nightmare to lay your hands on in these parts.
Perhaps I’ll even throw my hat in after the first game’s done.
If you’re not the MC, you don’t need to use GIMP. The MC takes care of updating and posting the map after each player’s turn. For this game, though, I’ll be using Vassal with the Small World module for updates.
Sorry! I figured those who enjoy playing in our Dom3 games would enjoy playing SM via PBF. I assure you it was done merely for proper exposure to the right ner…er, members. :-)
You mean play a true MP game? If so, the iPad version supports only hotseat MP for 2 players.
Done! The Headless Hollow game sheet should be all you need to read to fully understand the game, and you don’t need to read the Race and Special Power descriptions until they show up in the pool.
Great! We have our 5 players! Sorry, Nate and Funkula. I’ll leave you guys on the alternate list for the next game, or if someone else wants to MC Game 2.
Okay, so here’s how I’d state my turn:
Gather Troops
Spend 3 VP for the Hill Ratmen, 12 tokens in hand
Conquer
42 with 3 tokens, 1 Lost Tribe to tray
33 with 2 tokens
32 with 3 tokens, 1 Lost Tribe to tray
31 with 2 tokens
39 with 2 tokens
Do you all have a BGG (boardgamegeek.com) account? I ask, because the random generator codes we’ll need to use are specific to the BGG forum, and playing the game via their Small World PBF forum would be easier than via Qt3’s forum.
