I was already excited for the game, now Rahdo made me impatient and anxious. :). Elise: Thats neat to hear that hes excited about it! Thanks! It is a game we are really looking forward to playing. Would also be interested in blind testing of Charterstone. can u buy another board? To me, the fact people have hidden abilities makes me think wed be able to wipe the game and start over for a totally different chain of experiences. Each game will have its own unique rule and bonus objective. I find it very hard, however, to not get very excited about the prospect of Charterstone. Just make sure they include the important details that the games development is still in progress and that the exact release date is unknown. Like I said, its hard to not get very, very excited. Give it a name and click Create. Or is at least in the works? I have an eager playtest group at NKU. Were currently playing through our 2nd campaign with another couple and again, were all loving it. Mystic Vale was their first to use is. However, this is a perfectly fine place for you to house rule this rule, especially in a 2-player game. That means a lot to meIm glad you and your wife had a good time building your village. In an effort to start a new village, the Forever King has selected 6 citizens for the task, each of whom has a unique set of skills they use to build their charter. . We were hoping to instill this sense of delight when you open Charterstone. The unique feature of Charterstone is that its designed to not just be played until everything is unlocked, but also after that (youre not limited to a certain number of games). My girlfriend and I are looking forward to diving into another Stonemaier game! I was very excited to learn of the digital version of the game coming to Nintendo Switch. Mandy: Whenever you construct a building, it always goes in your charter (no matter what the building looks likebuildings dont belong to anyone other than the builder). Is your UK store likely to get any new stock soon? View. I **strongly** hope that youve got some writers working on some story level paragraphs for those decision points. So far Ive put together the prototype myself and mailed it to developers in the US (it would be expensive to ship to Europe). You can also choose to have Automa represent any number of inactive factions if you want it to feel like youre competing against more than just one other player. :-). I love Charterstone. You should have seen the look on my kids face at that reveal :) That was one of the most surprising legacy components we had seen and we have played through season 1 and 2 of Pandemic. Thanks,guys! Love this game! Maria Panagou July 15, 2020 No Comments 410 views 0 likes 0 followers. When read the notes for Game #9 we laughed for a few minutes before we could carry on with the end of game routine. Do you have the rule cards that dont change anywhere? Charterstone: a question about inactive charters. Thanks Alex! Thanks Nick! I eagerly await any game you design or produce. Here is my question: We did you decide to make Cahrterstone a Legacy game? Oh my! Charterstone is still on a boat, so No one will have it at the convention. Please email me if you have any response to my comments. It could be possible using digital printing. If you have questions in future games, Id recommend posting them in the Charterstone Facebook groupyoull get a fast answer there even if Im not available. You can select one of the face-up cards, not a face-down card from the draw pile. I see one on my mailing list called Mitra Nirwana Co. Have you checked with them? Other uncategorized cookies are those that are being analyzed and have not been classified into a category as yet. Quick question: is it normal to be running out of room in the archive tuck box at this point in the campaign? You play through the campaign, during which you essentially build the game, and then at the end of the campaign, you can continue to play the game as you wish. We were also pleasantly surprised at how the game can continue to be played after the initial campaign is over we expected that it was something we wouldnt be able to play anymore. The 6th charter will grow on its own without Automa. If someone uses your Ghostss Building, you may gain 1 Reputation before any action that might trigger their option to gain 1 Reputation. :) They were a beautiful visual and tactile enhancement to a wonderful game. My wife and I knew NOTHING about it beforehand. Well release it as soon as its typeset. :). Its an exciting time for me too, as Im slowly getting the typeset files from my graphic designer. Anyway, loving the Charterstone experience. We are all going crazy about Charterstone. The buildings are stickers that are removed from cards, and both the stickers and the cards serve crucial functions in the game. Your decisions and play style will affect the progress and the end of the campaign. They have their copies in, have taken my money, and have a copy with my name on it ready for pickup. It is because of your high quality games and great customer service that we have (currently) 5 of your games and plan to get more. One big thing I should mention up front is because of the element of permanence in legacy games, you wont be able to start over after you begin. The first is that they tend to curl up at the edges, which doesnt look good and can catch on other components. I love their design and the increased thickness will doubtless make them a staple of many other games in need of metal money. :), There will not be a Kickstarter or pre-orders from Stonemaier; rather, well announce when its available via our e-newsletter, and you can request it from your preferred retailer.. Can you confirm this? On the Ribbon, select New Contact Group. What is the benefit for a gamer? Ever part of me that loves new board games with lots of pieces wanted to go through all the cards and boxes thoroughly. Its a 12-game campaign followed by infinite non-scenario gameplay (like any other worker-placement game). We have never played a legacy game. So yea, I will be getting the recharge pack when we are done, and we can hopefully get a group together to play it through once the pandemic crisis has abated. Please look closely at your cards and let me know the card numbers 1-X) that are printed the wrong way. Greetings from Brazil ! However, I think the digital version of Charterstone may already have some new elements, and if it continues to be successful, the digital developer may add more content to it over the years. The fact that those cards were not available just going through them and thinking about how they could have been impacting the game left a slightly deflated feeling in our guts. :). 1. I am going to assume it was due to a possible spoiler included (though emailing me to explain that fact would have been helpful). There are two Charterstone Facebook Groups, a General Group, where people ask for help with game play, and a Spoiler Group, which was mainly set up for people to share their finished Boards and scores. I appreciate your creativity, but we do not perceive this to be a problem, so we are not looking for solutions. Thanks Jamey. Thank you so much for embracing the world of Charterstone to that extent. Thank you very much for getting us such a lovley game and I am really looking forward to play the finnished version with a 6 player group soon. None are currently planned, just the digital version. :) That one was very fun! One, I am glad you are sticking it out. Covid-19 lock-down, was a perfect opportunity for playing board games. :) Theyre also coated with a protective material. I know you mentioned you wont be at PAX Unplugged, but will Charterstone be available from a partner? But yeah, Im in this weird place now where Im paying attention to the company and designer behind the games we play. :). We are *so* looking forward to Game #8! Aggaga! The fact that you designed a game that gets better each time you play it just blows my mind. Elegant. Thanks! I want to use a label maker to create the other Charter labels as I wont be able to bring myself to write directly on the board. :) I would recommend checking out this group on Facebookits a spoiler-friendly zone for discussion (though you can indicate in the group how far along in the campaign you are so people wont spoil anything that happens afterwards). I havent been able to find a guide that tells me where they all go. :) Charterstone will be available in limited quantities at Essen (sold through Matagot since Stonemaier wont be at Essen). Once we are all the way through (post round 12) we will probably try playing whatever game you play on the finished board. I simply have no room for anything else in that tuck box. Will the amount of players change the way future games turn out? The game being fully and properly functional after the fact alleviates a lot of issues I have with legacy, and the idea of being able to play a second game on the back would be a huge bonus. I really appreciate that since my group has some that are not that fluent in english and its always a little bit of an effort to explain all the text on cards that are in english. Because the core mechanism of Charterstone is that you can place a worker on buildings in ANY charter, even if one charter ends up slightly better crafted than the others, its not imbalanced. Thanks for playing! I no longer use Facebook; so here I am. Ian: The Index Guide has a little note about where you find this tuckbox (its not actually tuckbox). Like I said love the game. Minion abilities are triggered first. This review helped me understand that this game favors patience and people who are free from a desperate need to feel important. :), hi, if you intend to play 2 player only, would it make sense/ is it even possible to use two characters each to unlock more buildings etc. Players are still doing things that are grounded in our world, thoughthat is, theyre not casting magical spells. Usually, you'll select Contacts. Sorry my English! It even has eclipsed the kid favorite Mice and Mystics in our house. I noted in Game #3 that is was possible for players who are trying to maximize their score to avoid those spaces where the progress tokens movement is triggered. Id say its disheartening when the enthusiastic gamers who could support your new project, or at least wait before passing judgement, are simply taking the easy route and criticizing something before it actually exists. Ill take some credit and give some credit. Thank you very much! Thanks. Also, keep coming second rather than dashing between 1st and 3rd in games. Jamey can u tell us a bit more about the design team? The cookie is used to store the user consent for the cookies in the category "Performance". It was a very difficult game to design, so I dont have plans for a sequel at this point. Or are you in the mindset of diversifying the catalog? :). It took us *far* longer to play game #1 than advertised nothing against the game or anything, I was just incredibly nervous that I was going to do something wrong (this is our first attempt at a Legacy game). The minions are fantastic! This list is awesome for sure! We just love viticulture. The end of this one was certainly unexpected. You can access my other Charterstone Posts Here. So how will you fix Charterstone here? We named our village after our cat that we lost this past spring, so the surprise at the end of game 6 was really very touching and so, so cool. :). Note that non-100% that were submitted/approved before a demon fell off the main list will be retained #76 - CHROMA FINALE Renn241 #77 - SZYSLAK Zeniux #78 - Spectrum Cyclone So many beautiful building in the watch It Play video ! Truly a testament to how important your business is to you and how much you value your customers and the gaming community at large. It was explained that the comments section or Facebook would be a better place to ask this. Its like the first time someone tries sushiits weird and foreign and rawand then you eat it and actually have an informed opinion about it. We are about to play our first game after our campaign was completed. But Thursday should be a relatively safe bet. The second is that the stickers dont restick well when applied to something the second time. Ive noticed that you have an interesting catalogue of games, Worker placement, city building/tile laying, legacy, 4x. what about the stickers made of thin flexible magnets? Garrison: Thats a great point! I imagine even the Legendary devs took an accidental hail of friendly fire before they got to the -gendary part. But our group has 6 players. Just heard from my favorite game store (Meta-Games in Springfield, MO). Game #11 it is hard to put into words how much fun that one was, and how enjoyable the end-of-game choices were! You'll then see your cursor change to crosshairs (like a plus sign). So awesome! I have been super excited to play it. cute art style The frustration is there is no help, anywhere, to what is going on. How about thin flexible plastic or vinyl sticker that can adhere to the surface of a glossy board (in the same way that window clings work) so that they can be left in place OR they can be removed and be infinitely reused & repositioned? The overall feel and look of the game. I love Euro-style games and my wife loves city builders, am we are both big fans of Viticulture/Tuscany (top 10 game for us) and my primary game group is running through Pandemic Legacy now (August). Only 6 ? Hey Stegmaier family, just opened my new copy of Charterstone for the first time, and I just want to say how much I love the organization, clean graphic design, easy to start instructions and creative index box storage. Then they would stay put when you put the game away, but if a group stops playing after 2 or 3 games the board could be reset. Play testing, reviews, publicity, whittling meeples, whatever is required You have my attention! Best regards Christopher. I can see why they would not use this option. Thanks for your feedback, Bonnie! https://www.facebook.com/groups/charterstoneboardtrading/. Looking forward to the next game to get hooked on. One final key issue please tell me there is direct player interaction? Im glad youre having fun with it. Just finished game 6 and like the comment back in august 2018, the link https://stonemaiergames.com/games/charterstone/map/ does not allow for score entry. Or play testers still needed? Stay safe; stay healthy. https://stonemaiergames.com/lessons-learned-from-quitting-kickstarter-as-a-creator-part-1/. If nothing else, those of us who love the game may feel it would be fun to do the back as a solo experience! Well youve certainly piqued my curiosity! So I may work 20-40 hours just on game design a week. I love this quality to Above and Belows buildings it adds to that games world-building feel. This is on my watchlist. Now get to bed everybody, its late and you need your rest. If you decide not to complete the campaign, and you would like to part with the board, I would certainly be interested in acquiring it. When i play more games, will the place where i stick the sticker have any effect on the game? Scythe was in the works for 16 months before going to the printer. Which way do you want to go?. Hi Jamey! Thats amazing, Kyle! As we read the story, guidepost, and other cards that make up the scenario for Game #10, we were trying to wrap our head around the whole thing. I was planning on picking up the box version, but my experience with the digital version will probably make me pass. Heath: That is one of the reasons I recommend playing with the same people from start to finishyou have to learn more rules if you jump into the middle of the campaign. Jason your name in this thread does not have a URL out to which I can reach. Unlock specific areas of a protected workbook or stop sharing the worksheet, and then try step 3 again. It pleases me tremendously that YOU are so interested in and eager to work on Legacy mechanisms. 863. My group is three games through the campaign so far and its been an absolute blast. We are playing as 5 active charters with our family age 8yo up to adult and everyone agrees it is some of the most fun we have had playing a game and this comes from a family that has over 100 board games. John: Thanks! All of the advancement cards in the general supply (deck, mat, and discard pile) just form one cohesive deck, and at the beginning of each game youll shuffle it and reveal cards on the mat. I'm thinking of buying this game to play with a group of friends, but it might be awhile before they're ready to tackle it. Charterstone will be released in German by Feuerland in late 2017.
