Plundering Great Time! Raiders of Scythia

Description provided by Nerdz Garage on YouTube:

Raider of Scythia was released this year by Renegade Games Studio and Garphill Games and designed by Shem Phillips and Art by Sam Phillips and Shem Phillips. Set in the Greeks' times, Persian and Assyrian Empires who control vast amounts of land and riches. This time the Raiders come on horseback and skilled with the sword, ax, and bow. They are evolved and have learned plans. They have well-crafted armor and trained eagles for hunting and war. They are more than an allegory- they are Raiders of Scythia. Our Thoughts We have been binging Raiders of the North Sea with expansions and found the theme and maneuvering creative without being weighty. We were over the moon after we got Raiders of Scythia on the table, on account of they took the best game mechanics of Raiders of the North Sea, added a large dose of strategy, and revamped the theme. The worker placement for deck building and resource management are still the mainstay; however, there are plenty of options to gain Victory Points in addition to raiding. The Quest cards give points with zero risks. The new procedure is a Quest Card is turned face up after a raid and is available to all players to purchase. We had a player snatch the majority of those because they are available After the raid, so the player who raided cannot purchase till the next turn. Thus, leaving the Quest open to all other players. There are multiple roads to the highest Victory Points for the win. The Last Word Raiders of Scythia has successfully boosted the predecessor game with refined mechanics and powers. The addition of Horse and Eagle cards that boost the crew members' abilities heightens the strategy and extended replayability. The wound dice cause systemic damage each raid, however, the paths to healing can be swift, dependent on the engine the player has built. For that matter, we did not heal before the next raid by utilizing the Kumis for strength. Nerdz Garage found Raiders of Scythia to be a plundering great time!
