Polis: Fight for the Hegemony

anandyctedstar6,5

Seemed like an excellent compression of a wargame with a euro heart (with one of the worst manuals ever). Instead after a couple of plays I found out it feels more like a resource management euro with a sprinkle of clumsy randomness and combat. The basics concepts and core ideas are pretty interesting, but the execution seems to feel both scripted and not very interactive. Which might just be an impression, but I can't help to feel bored by the resource management cycle, waiting for some extra nice decision to come through. An entire point less for combining extra tight, knife edge, ultra punishing resource management and decisions, with uber random, unmitigated, dice rolls for sieges. Half a point less for an embarrassingly translated English manual and dense rules layout. The whole game is pretty simple and it's not difficult to understand because it's original, but mostly because the manual is abysmal and some stuff doesn't make sense thematically, like teleporting troops

Gestion de esparta o grecia en la guerra del peloponeso. Mas euro que wargame. Muy bueno, tiene el gancho que para realizar acciones tienes que gastar puntos de victoria y para ganar puntos de victoria has de hacer acciones, si no lo haces bien te auto bloqueas.
