My BGG Comment

This is not a bad game but it is smaller than the box it resides in. If the box were just a standard square box like Spirit Island I would rate this higher. As it stands I have only played with two and the combination of worker placement and fighting on the map fell a little flat. This is a case of me coming in with very high expectations from the KS. It is only a mild disappointment, still hoping to get in a larger game at some point. Keeping it as a lesson to stay away from this type of KS.
