Interesting discussion at BGG

I don't contribute at BGG anymore but I do lurk once in a while. Anyway, I found a little discussion that peaked my interest. Some good little tidbits on Flying Frog "universe" timelines and connections. I like it.

That was interesting,FFG really has their Games & backstories worked out.

Thanks for pointing that out! Some good stuff there!

I still really would love to see the Martians from IFOS as a player-race for CoPE, even just as one of their downloads. I'd also love to see an ancestor of the ringleader from IFOS as a character in ToE. Such things would really solidify everything for me.

Heh, kinda neat. I don't know if I would have noticed all the easter eggs

To quote FF: A veteran of the circus life, R.J. Flannigan’s family has been part of a traveling carnival for over eight generations, having first brought their show to the Americas around 1790. As the ringmaster, he is a father-figure to the performers in the troupe, offering sage wisdom and a helping hand.

And what nightmares does Lucrezia have?

Check and re-check links (Lucreziah / Lucy)???

Or maybe there's nothing there....




ATOE is set right about then, of course. I'd do some looking....

This is very interesting... being only a LNoE fan.
Even though I have no interest in FFP other games, I always appreciate a good back story and the way they've apparently tied them together.

Nice link.

Yeah, that's exactly why I am hoping for a carnival-ringmaster character in future expansions. There's no carnival in the game yet...

This is the kind of stuff that makes Flying Frog my favorite game company. With them, it's almost like you're not playing games; your taking part in a story that is already going on.

It has been a few months since I have played this game, so I took it out for a solo session. During my very successful conquest, I encountered both the Small Town (LNOE) and the Carnival (IFOS).

I love the Frogverse and the fact that all of their games are connected.
