ParticipantWell… Maybe for the first game you might have to do a bit of hand-holding and GM-ing until the other players find their rhythm. After that, both sides can go full tilt.

ParticipantI have started to listen to the newly released soundtrack.

Not what I was expecting but I like it so far.

ParticipantLooking forward to the EoG treatment for this game. Wow is the rulebook convoluted!

ParticipantIt’s actually pretty simple to play. As long as you understand how to read the map and the difference between districts and streets, you’re good to go.
The Sins usually have specific on-going effects. But the back page of the rule book is it, really.

ParticipantSo far enjoying painting the Sins but I need to do some of the Faith guys.
Started on the Apocalypse figures then in a rare moment of self control put them back in their box to do the rest of the game first.Still yet to play a game – it is actually set up on a table waiting with Pride anticipating ‘painted’ victims in the near future.
I have noticed a very slight bit of curl on a few of the map tiles though and I think the Sin turn markers could have been better with a bigger difference between the front and back.August 22, 2016 at 2:16 pm #13025Wolvercote
ParticipantI played 5 solo games over the weekend and while I really enjoyed it, I’m a bit concerned that the Sin player is overpowered compared to the Faith team. The Sin side won all 5 games and the Faith only came close once. I’ll be curious to hear the consensus over time on this.

KeymasterI’ve started work on a summary.

Participant@ Wolvercote : It’s been 50-50 for me. Basically, the Sins just need to pile in there and chuck as much dice as you can, while using the corrupted acolyte powers. Focus on bringing down 1 hero at a time. It’s surprising what can happen with exploding dice.
Also, don’t forget the Avatar is also a monster, so you CAN re-spawn at the end of the round.

ParticipantOh I didn’t forget that. Not that the Sin player needed the help!

ParticipantI am enjoying reading about people’s experiences so far. Great discussion on BGG.
I think we (UK) are still about a month (Sept) away from a delivery.

KeymasterI played for the first time last week and really enjoyed it. I was discouraged as the Sins player at first, but your power level creeps up towards the end!

Participant@ UH : There’s a thread over at BGG on what tactics to use both as a Sins player and as the FAITH team.
