Cyrils Brettspiele - Star Realms - in a nutshell (N96) - That is Deck building!

Watch “Cyrils Brettspiele - Star Realms - in a nutshell (N96) - That is Deck building!,” a board game review for Star Realms: Colony Wars on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Nils “Cyril`s Brettspiele” Herzmann on YouTube:

If you think about a deck builder - please name 2 games! OK, 1 is Dominion for sure ..... and then? The 2nd deck builder should be Star Realms - at least if you are in charge at White Wizard Games - the publisher. And they tried everything to make a game that is at least the nr. 2 in this category ..... Is that working? My in a nutshell review should tell you that - and more Yours Nils

About Star Realms: Colony Wars, from BoardGameGeek:

Colony Wars is a deckbuilding game in the Star Realms series which is both a standalone box set for two players (featuring an 80-card trade deck, as in the original) and an expansion for the base Star Realms set that allows it to be played as a four-player game. In Colony Wars, as in Star Realms, players will start with a fleet (deck) of 10 basic ships, and can spend Trade to acquire more powerful ships and bases from a central trade row of 5 cards. This row is continuously replenished by random draws from the trade deck. Many ships and bases deal Combat damage which you can use to attack your opponent and/or destroy their bases. When you reduce your opponent's Authority to zero, you win.
