Banners of War Impressions

[Banners of War Impressions]

Glad to hear praise for the expansion - I've been considering buying it but was unsure of the benefit (just got the base game and played through our first session).  Of all the improvements, the ones that shore up race weaknesses and options to prevent sneak wins are definately on top.  I like sneak wins - no surprise since that's how I won our first game - but having options that reduce the surprise (or at least increase the epicness of it as they defend their spoils) sounds great.

[Looking for a Play by Forum]

Hey all,

Looking for some way to play Runewars online - a new PBF, one needing a replacement player, some other funky form of playing.  BGG's games are full and some google searching has been fruitless, and I got the fever!

[Using 2x runewars?]

Some Runewars fans over on Board Game Geek have made a couple custom factions - worht taking a look at if you're going for a 5-6player game.  Dunwarr Dwarves is a faction to expand the typical game to 5 players.  Not sure if the starcraft variants are balanced with the official races, though.  You'll need to sign up to BGG, but that's a good idea even for the casual board gamer.
