First Playtest

We had our first group playtest yesterday where 3 of us had a chance to play and sort out any rule ambiguities. We played for just over an hour, below are some images and observations we took away from the playtest.

Combat:

• Over complicated, look at removing hit points.

Starting Conditions:

• Start with 1 worker and a number of resources to allow players buy what they want.

Resources:

• Add farms to the game.

Middle Hex:

• Produces resources in the same manner as a base(1 of each)

Priest:

• Review abilities, maybe look at using priests to generate chance(Miracle?) cards.

Balance:

• Review unit cost/effectiveness to be more balanced.

Building progression:

• After capturing an Alien Factory wait 1 turn before building from it, after capturing mine receive resources next turn.
• You can only build Mechs at alien factories.

Relics:

• Make Relics easier to build as this takes too long at present
