Product description

An expansion scenario deck for 20 Strong based on the world of Too Many Bones.

20 Strong is a new deck-based game system from Chip Theory Games, capable of being played in about 30 minutes or less. We say “game system” because the idea behind 20 Strong is a small nucleus of simple, adaptable rules that can then be applied to a variety of unique decks, each with their own set of mechanics. We are launching 20 Strong with three such decks – one set in the world of Too Many Bones, one set in Hoplomachus: Victorum, and one in the new universe of the space-faring Solar Sentinels. We have more decks in development and plan to release them regularly if our customers are excited by them. For now, 20 Strong is a solo-only game, but even that could differ in future decks using the ruleset.

The object of a game of 20 Strong is to progress through a shuffled deck of cards, each card bearing a unique challenge. This challenge could be in the form of an enemy, a unique scenario, or some other requirement (for example, players of the Too Many Bones deck might expect to see a Lockpicking challenge or two). Challenges usually require a certain number of successes to complete, which you earn by rolling a set of 17 dice with different odds for a hit (these dice, along with three adjustable stat dice, make up the “20” in 20 Strong).

Game Material
The Dice and the Time tracker are from the base game and are very good. The game specific cards are really great. I love the design.
Rules:
Some small changes and addition to the rules of the base game create a totally new game. I like the way Chip Theory picks up the their bix box gaming "Too Many Bones". I did need to read the rules twice. Unfamiliar terms were introduced, but only later in the rules defined. I find this version harder to master than the base game. It also requires a different strategy, since the amount of days (i.e. rounds) are restricted.
The game is quickly set up. I need about 5-45 minutes play time (5, if I already loose in the first round)
