Gloomhaven
Feb. 3rd, 2021 11:14 amWe sat down for another Gloomhaven session last night, our 3rd actually playing the game, although we have completed several scenarios. First there was the Punching Out Hundreds of Game Pieces scenario, then the Sorting Hundred of Game Pieces into Ziploc Bags scenario, then we tried the first game session. Then I soloed the Punching Out and Sorting all the Balsawood Pieces for the Organizer We Bought scenario, then later ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
myrialux soloed the Putting Together the Balsawood Pieces into Fragile Trays scenario while I read him funny things from Reddit, and a day or two later I soloed the Taping Together the Balsawood Trays (Because myrialux Didn't Glue Them for Some Reason and I Am Too Impatient for Glue) While Also Sorting Game Pieces Into Them scenario, and after that we played the actual second game session.
I also watched several YouTube videos on the rules while punching and sorting, which made more sense after the first play session, so I would say I'm about 75-85% good on the rules right now. We still had to look things up a few times per round, and in the cases where we were sure there was an answer somewhere but we couldn't find it, we just picked what we thought sounded the most sensible as a rule and went by it.
Tiny, my tank, continued to bash a lot of opponents, and Erithyn (I think I'm closer to the spelling now),myrialux's magic-user, continued to throw spells and then have to rest a lot.
So, Scenario #3. Under a cut because of SPOILERS. Yes, you can spoil a boardgame--this is basically a tabletop RPG with the game itself serving as GM. Don't read if you think you might play the game, or if you haven't played #3 yet.
