Есть сполеры!!! Dragon King - Holy Moly. This expansion is insane. The variant campaign where you serve under the Dragon King looks so different from the core game that I imagine, when I get to trying it out, I'll be wondering if I'm playing the same game. If you're playing the Dragon King as a regular quarry, then the game recommends you encounter it around Lantern Year 8. That's a turn after you would normally encounter the phoenix, and there's no mention of removing the Phoenix Feather event, so it looks like you'd do the Dragon King equivalent event right after and in addition to rather than subbing the Dragon King in for the Phoenix.
In terms of general gameplay changes outside of the campaign variant, the main draw for this expansion seems to be a new weapon proficiency: scythes. Once I get into the cards I'll try to update here talking about what the proficiency does. The idea's neat, but not really huge. The part of this expansion that really impressed me was the variant campaign, the "People of the Stars" campaign. Not only do you end up with a completely revamped settlement timeline that features its own unique, campaign specific nemesis monster, but you also get a revamped character sheet that represents settlers literally transforming into dragon power infused demigods. Freaking DRAGON POWER INFUSED DEMIGODS. Okay. Sorry. I'm better now. Really.
There's a grid of abilities that settlers can gain throughout the course of their campaign. Similar to a bingo board, gaining a vertical or horizontal row of these abilities grants your survivors a rather special reward: an even more powerful ability and status as one of the Dragon King Tyrant's chosen "People of the Stars." The whole campaign actually centers around training up as many settlers as possible to reach People of the Stars status and, if you fail to do so adequately, your settlement's essentially doomed. This focus on "leveling up" your individual survivors is interesting to me because it looks like it's going to require a very different macro level strategy from the core game's "level the settlement, not the characters" approach. In the Dragon King expansion, the settlement is fairly well provided for. In return, however, you're absolutely forced to keep your settlers up to snuff. The expansion gives you some options for keeping settlers alive and functional longer to keep this theme going with things like prosthetic limbs, a slightly less dangerous intimacy table, and slightly fewer nemesis encounters (guess the King's man doesn't much care for the idea of messing with Big Daddy Tyrant's pet civilization...)
A final note on Dragon King: its variant states that it's not built to work with other expansion monsters but, after looking through the rules in the expansion in depth, I see no reason, mechanically, that the variant campaign can't work with any other non-boss monster. I plan on using expansions liberally in my People of the Dragon campaign. If something comes up to break the game due to doing this then I will update my description here to describe the issue.
Дикая цена (даже GW не настолько наглое), так себе детализация, дизайн типичного дракона из Final Fantasy - без всякого тревожного уродства и намека на ничтожность человеков в этом мире. Одновременно с этим существуют миньки сходного размера, но куда дешевле и более приятно исполненные: http://www.thewarstore.com/product87669.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87655.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87747.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87743.html (однажды в руках подержал - довольно впечатляющий). http://www.thewarstore.com/product87745.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87736.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87730.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87715.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product101232.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product101199.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product101165.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product101194.html http://www.thewarstore.com/product87776.html
Поиграть в KD пока не довелось, но что-то меня все сильнее гложет чувство, что оно того не стоит. =_=
Увы стоит ) Пока альтернативы для меня нет. Что касается данного аддона взял его на КС за 30. Но купил недостающие на 300 баксов. Игра действительно того стоит, хотя ценник безбожный. Не забывайте, что в этой коробочке игрового контента на многие часы, а не только кусок пластика.
Ну и помимо Дракона там еще Тирант, полный набор брони и оружия для создания 4-х персонажей и пара миниатюр персонажей кампании. Когда приедет аддон конкретно по этой коробочке сделаю обзор, как по самой дорогой.
Шесть пластиковых фигурок, стопка карт и картонки.
$300+
вери гуд бизнес! -)))
Дела неплохи, пока есть лохи)
Откуда $300-то? На сайте $150. А на ебее я могу хоть миллион поставить - это еще не значит, что ее купят по такой цене.
Но бизнес да, неплох )
На ebay предпоследний ушел за 320 долларов. И остался только один за 420. Народ с ума сходит.
АААА!!! Хватай, уйдёт же, уйдёт!!!

150 баксов? Серьезно?

Дракон от GW Смауг, 295 фунтов серьезно?
Это же не цена миньки. Это цена всего аддона, там много чего еще кроме самого драка.
Kingdom Death: Zepter.
150 баксов без стоимости доставки... Но каков красавец! Надо больше зарабатывать, надо больше зарабатывать [пошел работать дальше].
