@Nicholas Bryant (A68) (Cruella De Vil) moves to Countryside and gains 3 power.
He plays for a cost of 3 power, the card 'Jasper' to Radcliffe House.
He then plays for a cost of 1 power, the card 'Get The Job Done'.
He chooses to pay 1 power and activate Jasper. The 2 Puppy Tokens at Radcliffe House are captured and have been added to the captured tokens below Cruella De Vil's realm.
He then moves Jasper from Radcliffe House to Countryside.
That is the end of his turn, and @Mark Pinnick (A84) is next.

Not much I can do now....
1. Move to Hedge Maze.
2. End Turn.
Well played @Sudeep Pednekar (R163); definitely a beneficiary of people not realising what they needed to do (either that, or they wanted the game to end already!!).

Mark (Queen of Hearts) moves to Hedge Maze and ends his turn.
@Sudeep Pednekar (R163)'s turn is next. Prince John's win condition states he must have at least 20 power at the start of his turn. He has 22, therefore Sudeep is declared the winner. Congrats.
The debrief may start now.

I think Nicholas didn't analyse the board before playing his move.
Thanks! @Mark Pinnick (A84)
Definitely a faster end to the game than I expected, but I had two more copies of Beautiful, lovely taxes in my hand so it was always a matter of when rather than if.
Thanks for the game @Chris Adnams (P13) and putting up with me :P
Sometimes the desire to win gets over me, apologies.
Anyway, that was a lot of fun and very happy with the result. GGs everyone.

I must say (and this is in no way a dig at you, @Sudeep Pednekar (R163); you played a brilliant game), Prince John is probably the easiest character to play; especially for beginners.
But @Chris Adnams (P13); thanks for introducing the game to me. The rest of the family love it too, and we'll be playing for years to come, I am certain.

Why do you think I picked Prince John? :P

Here is my rundown of the game from every player's perspective:
@Ivelin Dobrev (R165) (Jafar) was really not far away. Had the means to defeat Aladdin on his next turn and move the Lamp quickly with Iago out. Wasted a turn moving Genie to Sultan's Palace. That didn't need to happen. Genie only needs to be under your control. Location is immaterial.
@Jun Ho (A78) (Pete) was probably furthest away from winning but still not a million miles away. Got the Play a Game goal completed early which was helpful as that goal was picked at possibly the worst location for it. The 'Knocked Silly' Fate in which the Bandits were discarded really, really hurt him. Would have been a lot closer but for that.
@Lech Witarczyk (A6) (Captain Hook) got hugely unlucky with his Fate deck. Peter Pan was last but one. If Peter Pan was out earlier, Lech probably would have won. He has it set up to win very quicky once Peter Pan is out. Other players would have been reliant on the Fate deck being kind.
@Nicholas Bryant (A68) (Cruella De Vil) was building up slowly, but with several Puppy Tokens out and both Horace and Jasper in play, there was a chance to build up the Puppy Tokens quickly. Biggest mistake was using Jasper to vanquish a Hero without first having attached a Fireplace Poker to him (which was in his hand at the time). This meant he was in the discard pile longer than in the realm, and needed to wait for the second 'You Idiots!' card to bring him back.
@Mark Pinnick (A84) (Queen of Hearts) was close. Dodo, and then Alice really hurt his progress. If he could have gotten rid of Dodo, he had a very good shot of winning. The biggest mistake was using 'The King' to vanquish White Rabbit instead of playing it to Dodo's location and attaching a Spear to him, and then vanquishing Dodo instead.
@Sudeep Pednekar (R163) (Prince John) obviously won, and as he stated, had 2 'Beautiful, Lovely Taxes' in his hand, which means he would have quickly gotten power back had it been taken away. I originally thought he had shown his hand too early and left himself with a target on his back. Deciding to vanquish King Richard over other Heroes was a crucial decision, as 'Beautiful, Lovely Taxes' is not able to be played with King Richard in play.
Thanks to you all for playing. I hope everyone enjoyed it. It's been my first time hosting a game of any kind on these forums, so I hope it went as smoothly as possible. A few hiccups along the way, but we got there. :)
GG everyone, and keep an eye out for season 2 at some point!

I was needing to get "Off with his head", but I'm not sure if there is a second one in the deck or not.

Not sure, really. I enjoy all of them, for varying reasons. If I had to pick, I would say possibly Jafar.

Btw thanks for your generosity of spirit - really enjoyed being appraised by you.
I get appraised often enough in my professional life - cheers mate.

@Chris Adnams (P13)
Have deleted everything, as far as I'm aware.
Thanks for introducing and hosting an interesting and progressively more challenging game :)

Yeah, I realized I wasted a turn moving Genie but it was too late. Could have possibly won if I didn’t do it, but Sudeep got us in his trap so he was always the favourite. I really enjoyed playing and I can’t wait to play again and try another character, even if I really liked Jafar’s objective. As I said before, I checked a guide on how to play with Jafar midway through the game and I was basically doing what I needed to do already.
Congrats Sudeep!

Cheers for the game Chris! Was very enjoyable to play. Hope you have given Sudeep a cash prize, otherwise his ass ain't gonna be happy for sure.
Cheers everyone else for the game! Would love to play this in the future now knowing how to play :D

All deleted, @Chris Adnams (P13).
One question though; is it necessary to reuse the same sheets for each game? Could you not create a different folder for each game, and put a fresh copy of each relevant sheet into that folder?
That way you can also control access to previous games by just deleting the old sheets.
|
|
|
|
Yeah, that’s true, all you need to do is duplicate the sheets. :)

Deleted.
Thanks for the game everyone, thanks for hosting Chris :)

I deleted everything.
Wehn can S2?
|
|
|
|
Thanks for deleting, guys.
I tried doing that before but it didn't work. Maybe I did something wrong somewhere. I'll have another look at some point. Would make things easier, for sure.
As for S2, watch this space. ;)

We can play Villainous online, it requires us to have steam and buy table top simulator, which costs about 20 bucks. There's a mod in that which enables us to play it for free. I can share the video on how the entire thing is done if people are interested.

I have a couple of weeks off work at the start of next month. I will definitely look to get a new season going at that point, if not sooner.
Watch this space. :)
