Northgard again!
2026/02/08
We absolutely had to play Northgard again.
I mean, Viking tribes beating each other up, normally they should like that.
But no, so I modified the rules to play 2 vs. 2, with resource trading options, but it's no use: in the end, it's just not the game for them. Deck building on top of the battlefield tactics is too much, I think. It's hard for them to manage everything at once. Exactly the same problem as Dune.
This summer I'm going to see if I can find a Zombicide game. Smashing zombies is simple, and it can quickly spiral out of control if there isn't good cooperation between the players. I think it's more suitable than complex competitive games with multiple game mechanics.
