Another similar game is 1989 about the changes in the east of europe when the soviet union fell apart. And a new one in the make is Imperial Struggle, from the same designers. 13 Days is kinda similar, too, allthough more condensed, and about the cuba …

/u/bboomslang on Favorite solo game?
My favorite by far is Lord if the Rings: The Card Game. But for me the main driving factor is that it allows (and actually requires) deck building before playing, just like I have with Magic the Gathering. So LOTR:LCG is my MTG fix for when I have no o…

/u/bboomslang on Why pauper?
Another one for me is the power level. You play with really powerful cards, but combine them with a slow land base for multi colour decks. That combined gives you a really interesting situation where you still get the time to setup your board state, but still have to be aware of turn 4 kills. You can still play some stuff that is way too slow for other formats (like Evincar’s Justice for example), since you have the tools to keep yourself alive, but at the same time can play some super fast decks. That gives a very interesting balance, which I really like. And hey, it is a format where a 100 card control deck is viable.

/u/bboomslang on What games are strategically deep but travel well?
Red7 is the perfect travel game, since you can teach it quickly to get others into the game, it plays well with 2-3 (cards can run low with 4) and it is adaptable in complexity due to its modular ruleset. And it is super compact, essentially being just…

I run Bolas himself, because it’s EDH and not commander, dammit 😉

/u/bboomslang on SOLO mode in board games. Is it really so important to you?
Thematic games don’t hit the table often, especially if they are not in German, and man, solo gaming is fun! It is my favorites pastime when I have spare time and a spare table, be it on travels or at home on the balcony. It is relaxing and overall just as enjoyable as reading a book.

/u/bboomslang on Aetherling in Pauper?
I had fun with [[Whirlwind Adept]] as a Wincon I a control build. Hexproof helps keeping it around and prowess gives it some extra beats. Just no good evasion, sadly.
