Hey hey folks ! Happy hobby times 😀

Answers first :

(1) going to have to agree with Bolt-Actions’ order mechanic.
The added advantage is that it is so nice and simple so you’re never wondering what you can do.
Battlegroup morale mechanic is a close second, but I haven’t played the game (yet).

(2) as a concept I’d have to say the ‘I go / you go’ system tends to break down really fast when armies are outmatched …
Nothing sucks more than seeing your units get killed with next to zero options to counter. It can’t be fun for the winning team either, because the best fights happen when they’re close.

(3) house rules ? I think pretty much anyone plays Monopoly not as it was meant to be. So I’m not sure if the ‘fixes’/mis-understood versions of the rules are better (or worse) than the official ones.

Going to collect my Brookcity kickstarter today 🙂
And I’ve got another kickstarter bit incoming next week. I hope to spend some time on my minions, but we’ll see.
