Slitherine games are on sale at Steam

I'd like to point you toward Heroes of Normandie. We have added the boardgame's cards (in public beta on Steam now). It changes up the game quite a bit, and I think the developers have made a pretty good job adoptin their use to asynchronous play (most important for MP).

It's not on sale here. Did you guys forget Canada?!

Look again.  It is on sale.

Well, that depends.

It is NOT worth it for Single Player; I never thought they could make a worse AI but they managed to do so.

I don't play in the open public match-maker league, so I can't comment much on that, but I have heard that at high Team Values there is nothing but killer Chaos teams who don't even bother to play the ball as long as you have players to hurt/kill.  With no real consequence for games (no playoff, ladder never resets) it seems that very few games actually make it very far before one player or the other concedes.  AFAICT the open public league is a mess.

Most of my BB2 experience is with people I play BB1 with in private leagues, and in that regard BB2 is pretty good, though still not better than BB:Chaos Edition, mostly due to lack of teams.  There are only 10 teams available in BB2 at the moment, the rest are supposed to come along and be released as DLC.

The wildcard in all of this is, is that they will be releasing 4 new teams (Norse, Necromantic  :wub:, Undead, Nurgle) sometime soon and if you own the game when the first (Norse) is released you will get all 4 for free.  Norse was supposed to be released at the end of February but is now delayed until first part of March.

So if you were going to buy the game at some point, and just wondering if this is the right time then yes buy it.  If you would be getting it to play SP or screw around in the open MM league I would say pass.

"Insomnia Sale" on GOG.com. Games on sale are in constant rotation (e.g. 60 copies of X-Wing - when they're gone, next game goes on sale). Games go on sale more than once.
