Legendary Encounters: An Alien Deck Building Game

Els jugadors cooperen com a personatges de la sèrie de pel·lícules per sobreviure als encontres amb xenomorfs. Cada jugador construeix una baralla personal reclutant cartes de marine, equipament i suport d’un mercat central per millorar les seves habilitats i respondre a amenaces cada cop més grans. Els alienígenes apareixen en un tauler compartit i avancen per les ubicacions; els jugadors es tornen per resoldre accions, reclutar i fer servir els efectes de les cartes per eliminar enemics i protegir objectius. El joc posa l’accent en el treball en equip, la gestió de la mà i el bon moment, a mesura que la baralla d’amenaces creix i els escenaris introdueixen nous perills i objectius de missió.

Deckbuilding colaborativo ambientado en las 4 primeras películas de Alien. Mecánicas interesantes con ataque, exploración y eventos.

I've you've played Legendary Marvel, there's a lot you'll recognize about this game. Essentially, this game is a deck builder where players buy new cards from a belt of cards, hoping to accumulate combos for the future, which will be used to defeat the belt of enemy cards. Each scenario has special rules for victory, which in this case is themed for the various Alien movies. The art is a little weak to what I'm used to from reading Dark Horse Alien comic books from the 80s and 90s, but it's reasonably standard for a game in the Legendary series. Mechanically, I enjoy that this game is fully co-op as opposed to the strange system in the main Legendary games line where you are working together but also fighting for the most points. To that end, there's an awesome little mechanic here that allows you to assist another player during their turn by playing your assist card and then redrawing, helping you to cycle around to your better cards. Another fantastic element is that players have a character card which however much health, and wounds just stack up at the side of your board, rather than crapping up your card draws. I liked Marvel Legendary, but I got annoyed by the semi-co-op nature, plus the unwieldiness of all the expansions, plus the focus on 90s characters and art really got to me. Legendary Alien brings along none of that baggage and doubles down on the things I liked about the game. ★ Art, Iconography and components functional ★ Clever or interesting mechanisms ★ Reasonably low downtime between turns with mildly AP players ★ Multiple plays stay interesting ★ Low or mitigatable luck elements ★★☆☆☆ Raw enjoyment

Dubtes de regles

Respostes a partir del reglament per l'assistent de regles de Ludoya.

When do hidden Hive cards get revealed — do I flip them when I draw them or only when scanned/entering the Combat Zone?

Hive cards are added face‑down to the Complex during the Hive Phase and are turned face up only when their room is scanned or when a face‑down card is pushed into the Combat Zone, at which point any “Reveal” abilities trigger (pages 8, 11).

How does pushing through the Complex work — can a card be shoved out into the Combat Zone?

Each Complex room holds one card, so when a new card enters it pushes existing cards one space toward the Airlock; if a card is pushed off the Airlock it leaves the Complex and enters the Combat Zone and is turned face up (page 8).

When do enemies strike, and how do strikes and strike damage work?

During the Strike Phase at the end of each player's turn, enemies in the Combat Zone strike from oldest to newest; each strike makes you draw a Strike card and any damage from strikes is placed next to your avatar — if your accumulated strike damage is greater than or equal to your avatar’s health you die (page 12).

When should I reshuffle my discard pile into my deck?

Only shuffle your discard pile into a new deck when your deck is completely empty and you still need to draw or reveal more cards; do not reshuffle preemptively (page 12).

How do Facehuggers and Chestbursters work — who gets impregnated and when do you die?

A revealed Facehugger is placed in front of the current player and that player (then the next player) has the opportunity to kill it; if it isn't killed it impregnates the original player (Facehugger goes to Dead Enemies and that player gains a Chestburster in their discard), and when a Chestburster is drawn it immediately kills that player (pages 14–15).

Do Vigilant characters still trigger Class/Crew abilities on later turns?

Vigilant characters stay in play between turns but only trigger Class or Crew abilities on the turn they were played; on later turns while they remain in play they do not help trigger those abilities (page 14).
