I suspected something like this might happen. Foolish me for trying to win honestly. /s

Tbh, kinda surprised card didn’t just claim victory himself. Or was it his idea to give it you?

I was too far behind to have a realistic chance at victory anyway. I was trying to get a better one with some of my proposals but I’d need more time. This dynasty was dragging on a bit long anyway so I took derrick’s deal, since he’d probably ask someone else.

Yeah, it was taking a bit. My plan was to gamble with the Fruity Horrors and hope for enough cherries that I could get the Dragon in one shot, maybe even buy some Fruit in town if the roulette table wasn’t agreeing with me.

I was somewhat distracted for much of the game, and didn’t play the first round that 3 hunts a round were possible.

I should have fought the XP rule harder. Its utterly part of the genre, but grinding mechanics are usually a bad thing for blognomic.

I also dislike teamwork rules without a downside. Making teamwork too easy usually ends the dynasty with two middle range contenders cooperating.

The beast is slain! The king shall be quite pleased.
