Eldritch Horror
Finally a world wide mythos Game (well it sort of makes my Home Brew Mythos & Glory old hat) but I'm excited .

My BGG profile says about 420,So far my wife is letting me get away with this (well I turn a blind eye to her expanding Coach Bag collection).

Actually Board & Bits have this up for preorder for under $40
which isn't badWatchmen02

RE: Eldritch Horror
I really love this Game , it plugs up what I felt were holes in AH.I think it owes a lot
to AToE & F&G in it's mechanics. The story line it generates & choices given are really
cool.

I'm around 9 turns in ,solved 1 Mystery but I have some On Going Mythos effects that
makes things tough. The current Mystery requires closing a Gate to solve, besides a clue
but right now I can't close Gates until I get to the Arctic Ocean & see why the Northern Lights
are going bonkers. However I have another problem that I can't complete Expeditions
& every time there is a Reckoning effect It removes an Expedition & once there gone
you lose the Game. Plus the doom Track is at 8 when it gets to Zero you lose.

So I'm trying to see which way to go.

RE: Eldritch Horror
Just finished my 1st Game up, Azathoth handed me my Butt in 12 Turns.This was Solo
to learn the Rules. It played smoothly but I think having only 1 Investigator contributed
to my loss.

I got two Mythos On Going Cards that were brutal ,one had me chasing it all over the Board
until the Omen token pushed the Doom Token down to Zero & I & the world were nada.

Great Game , I'm anxious to play again.

RE: Eldritch Horror
We just finished out game with two investigators and barley won with two clicks in the doom track to go. I can safely say this game is everything I wanted AH to be and more.

Amen to that, I hope FFG gets busy on Expansions, more AO
& more Mysteries .This Game is made for PoD stuff.

Not that the Game needs Expansions to upgrade the play
experience but simply that I can see it will get a lot of plays
so more AO & expanded Mysteries would be welcomed.

The different Investigators & other mechanics will provide
a lot of replay value as is but I want YIG (well the rest of the Gang
too). Maybe after some more plays I'll try my hand at some
Home Brew AO & I'm sure there will be some stuff done on BGG.

AToE has some good Fan Made Villains so I'm sure EH
will get a lot of Fan stuff to, as like AToE you just want
add Villains/AO to it.
