Reply To: Worst Miniature game ever?

I see the gem system in Conan as a pretty efficient system for handling fatigue and how that combines with wounds to gradually reduce effectiveness. I think the Book of Skelos with the river of cards works pretty well too for the Overlord player. There are a lot of strategic decisions to make and “go for it” or “play it safe” moments, which add up to a cinematic experience.

Yeah, the original rulebook wasn’t written well and created a good deal of confusion, and the scenarios vary somewhat in quality. But I’d say if Conan is your worst miniature game then you’ve been quite fortunate!
