You have some information about the options available to them, and also some information from the dice remaining to them, but it could all be a bluff. The game is very lop-sided too, the dragon has loads of health and does loads of damage, but is slow and ponderous and needs to recover more frequently. The knight is quicker on his feet but weak.<br /><br />We'll have to play some time!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />JackJackson Popehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685562784078130612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21988030.post-24835166231353523842016-01-11T13:27:57.663+00:002016-01-11T13:27:57.663+00:00Might be worth checking out Dragon Punch (a KS I b...Might be worth checking out Dragon Punch (a KS I backed, currently in fulfillment - but you can see the details on KS still). It's simulating Street Fighter (2?), so the designer Koen had some similar things to consider. <br /><br />I'm not sure I quite got my head around your design (board games being notoriously hard to describe!), but having a fairly small set of cards to play (recycling when all played) is a good way of giving an attentive opponent a chance to guess your move. Having a dice roll after the choice to add randomness to the result could be good. Having a choice of options after both cards are picked I struggle to imagine...it feels like a game of rock paper scissors within a game of rock paper scissors. <br /><br />Glad you've rolled onto (back to) a new game!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03430501414780307710noreply@blogger.com
