GODBALL!!
Posted: Tue Mar 31, 2020 8:55 am
Come on, you're in social isolation... jump in and play some Godball!
Last night's playtest was sooooo good! Seriously, we're streamlined so much and it feels great. For those of you who have played before, here's the basics:
On your turn, you get 3 points to spend on actions. Actions include: Run, Push other heroes, Snag the ball, Throw the ball, Force a fumble. You could run three times. You could snag the ball, then run and throw. Whatever! Plus, you still get one awesome god power (one card) each turn. And now you also have a reaction pool that allows you to take any of your five standard actions in reaction to someone else. But you only get a small handful of reactions throughout the game, so use them wisely!
And that's it! Sure, there's some extra details and stuff for what to do when mountains fall on you or when a tidal wave carries the ball away, but that's all minor.
Anyway... we use Tabletop Simulator to play, and we're doing all of our plotting and planning on Discord: https://discord.gg/Vfz4c6d
So join us! I'll try to remember to post a heads up on these boards whenever we have playtests scheduled. People can play along or just watch or whatever.
