Bio
I’m a 45 yo IT analyst on a multinational company. I love board games, strategy games are one of my favorites like deck building games or 4x conquest games.
My Summoner Wars (Hi)Story
Never played SW1 before.
Several weeks ago, I discovered the game and I was attracted by the beautiful illustrations but a strategy card&dice game?, it’s definitely my thing!. My boyfriend decided to give me a Spanish copy of the game and it was love at first sight!
I’m trying to get all the expansions sets but it’s not an easy thing for my country.
In addition, my first copy of the game was awfully translated into my mother language by IngenioGames (Barcelona) with some errors like in the manual “in magic phase: you can discard cards randomly to get magic points” (why do they add “randomly”?), others on cards changing “may” by “must” and that kind of things. Not so many, but very disgusted I decided to get my copy in English and sell my Spanish copy through Wallapop (a trading app for my country).
I don’t have much English level but I feel more comfortable like that. I’m trying to do a summary review on twitter in Spanish for all factions, I think with some sense of humor, but always with love for this game.
Favourite faction and favourite card
I have a lot of factions that I love, but I think in this moment shadow elves are my favorites. And I think I play too much against Cloaks, I think I’m starting to hate them XD, they seem too overpowered for me!.
But this is today my opinion, it’s too soon to keep this because I’m very noob!
What would I change about Summoner Wars
I’m not sure. I’m trying to understand the asynchronous gameplays, I’d like to play on the fly.
If we talk about the boardgame, I don’t know, it’s really awesome
