Jefferson: Thank you so much! We have purchased 2 full copies now (and refill packs). Can you please post average scores for a 4 player game? Game #11 it is hard to put into words how much fun that one was, and how enjoyable the end-of-game choices were! Thanks! Could you advise what font is used for The Commons on the board.

Whenever you construct a building by paying the costs shown on the card, you will be peeling off a sticker and placing the sticker onto the game board into your chosen charter. 6.

The Legacy part of the game starts now, with players using pens to name their Persona Cards, and by choosing one of their 6 plots to affix their starting building in their Charters.

Note that non-100% that were submitted/approved before a demon fell off the main list will be retained #76 - CHROMA FINALE Renn241 #77 - SZYSLAK Zeniux #78 - Spectrum Cyclone What Ive decided to do with the recharge pack idea is basically ask people after they finish the Charterstone campaign if they want the recharge pack, and if we get enough responses, well do it. We got a copy of the game and the stickers were printed on the wrong side of the playing card is there a way to get a replacement deck? Automa end up with a rating 7 they had at the end no chance but are strong at the start, Finally we set up a new board from our experience and a second recharge pack for continouse play no charter will have a engine but all basic elements are on the board. My girlfriend got the Glory of the guidepost and her choices (both initial and long term) were deliciously difficult for her to make. Therefore, you may spend the Influence you receive from using a Chef, to pay the Cost of the Building where it was placed. I cant imagine creating this game from scratch envisioning this game, and making it actually work is a feat of brilliance! Stonemaier games are absolutely beautifully designed though! How many copies is too many? and has some very cool concepts going on within it. However, that is still the impression I get from the descriptions of Charterstone I have seen so far. This is not a criticism of the game! As an option for advanced gameplay the rules could include examples of tile placement. One was the consequences of Game #6 (not going to spoil that one!) If youre actually interested in Charterstone, just watch a review when theyre available and youll understand it better. I think that so far I havent been as wild about the legacy rebrandings as others, but I appreciate the extra work that gets put into designing a legacy game. We have a redirect issue. Oh my! Fair enough! Hi Jason, I love all of the games you have designed and/or produced. That said, there are other fantastic legacy games out there. While I wait patiently for my copy of Scythe I believe you may have just raised my expectations to the next level! Absolutely. Jamey: I gave them that info, and they said they would order it for me. Thanks Jamey. Is it mentioned anywhere in the board box we will be receiving from retailers soon that this is an error, or will it be corrected on those editions? So essentially, the campaign will be more fun and will increase in difficulty compared to the non-campaign mode? They are great! Thanks for producing an absolute gem! I usually fullyverse myself with a games rules before I take a new game to our group. So the fundamental difference from copy to copy really depends on the combination of constructed buildings. I posted an unfavorable review a few days ago. So glad everything about the game was so well thought through. Purchased the digital version, really wanted to like it. It would be nice if game publishers would use them. Our gaming group has started a 6-person campaign and we are have a great time after three games. We just love viticulture. Thanks, Jamey, for bringing such fun into our lives! I was/am trying to give you genuine feedback. My wife and I knew NOTHING about it beforehand. When are the next batch of ambassador shirts being offered. Which partners might that be? How do we figure out the average to open the crate?

Ive played through it twice with different groups and people, and Im looking forward to playing it again when it comes online. Just heard from my favorite game store (Meta-Games in Springfield, MO). Well see. Just saw an earlier tweet about this game very excited! Ive been really impressed with how well Charterstone builds. :) Legacy requires permanent changesthings that cannot be undone. All of the sticker side portions of the cards had been printed on the permanent card back, while the card back picture was on the sticker portion. This games sounds exciting. This was one epic jorney and every game was simply amazing. Its actually incorrect informationthe coins are only available in Charterstone. I completed a campaign of risk legacy, 15 games with a group of friends a couple years ago. This card has an error on it. Vladimir: The stickers start on cards, so magnets arent an option (or, perhaps they are, but it would be incredibly expensive to make). Doublesided board?? The central buildings allow you to undertake the three main point-scoring activities available at the start of Charterstone: Building, scoring objectives and opening crates.If you have a building . :). * I have played the campaign Thanks Eric! No sign-in required. The game looks very interesting and am excited to play it whenever I can! What Ive decided to do with the recharge pack idea is if we get enough responses, well do it. Sounds like a great idea to wait and a great idea to make it available. I have an eager playtest group at NKU. I wasnt expecting so fast of a response. can u buy another board? Once again, thank you! 2. We will definitely buy the recharge pack and try our luck with the other three charters that time. Hey Jamey, big fan, read youre book and I loved it. When that happens, one of those crates will be unlocked, and the other will remain permanently unlocked. * I am designing what can only be described as a post campaign expansion for the game Jeremiah: The way to get Charterstone a little early is to go to Germany for Essen Spiel, as one of our partners is air-freighting a few pallets from China to Germany. In Essen? Since your catalog is pretty extensive in that genre is it something youre still looking for? In the meantime, I was thinking I could just do a play-through against AI opponents.

Now that this went so well, she is interested in trying other Legacy Games such as The Kings Delima and so on. Hi Brittany. Now get to bed everybody, its late and you need your rest. Minion abilities are triggered first. Game #8 is in the history books or in the Archive, if you prefer. Wow! It will be produced simultaneously to the first English print run. Lets say player A has a copy of Charterstone that has had all (possible) components added to the board, it is now in its final state. Building stickers are removed from cards and permanently added to your charter on the board, becoming action spaces for any player to use (kind of like Lords of Waterdeep, Caylus and Ora et Labora). Just wanting to know, before we open this bad boy and dive in, if you have any advice for playing this as a two-player campaign? 3. I can respect that. Of course, we are hoping to have 6 human players next time, so. We will dive into Game #9 tomorrow. As Ive been loving Scythe on Tabletopia wondering about the possibilities of a Legacy type game there, where you can leave that game room open and have some way to automate a Reset of the game board that carries over the appropriate changes. Especially this last game, it was just crazy. The last paragraph should end with the first time this happens this in Game 1.. I do not have a gaming group and find the idea of legacy mechanics AWESOME, so even the hint that this might work for solo play is amazing. Both of those are nice entries into legacy because most people know how to play Pandemic and Risk (thats the starting point for each of those games). Thanks! The muliple paths to victory. I was just curious, so I see that Charterstone will be released in December, but some can get a copy in October. Adrien: Sure, Ill continue to reveal what I can in small doses between now and the release. Eric: Thats a good question. What a great game! To do this: Click Gear Icon > Site Contents. You keep cranking them out, and I will keep buying them. Steve: Thanks for asking! I know you went out of your way to address some of the common criticisms while retaining some of the main creative elements that make us LOVE these games above most others. On the first page of the Charterstone rules, it instructs you to check the FAQ for any rules updates or clarifications (you can go look at the FAQ now if you want). Im sorry they werent correct in the first place. Each building you construct is a sticker you permanently place on the board. When it does, sometimes you can scroll through, sometimes you cannot. Only 100% records are accepted for these demons! I have filled out a game parts request. Jen: Thats wonderful! Cheers Jamey and looking forward for more GREAT boardgames from you! I want to use a label maker to create the other Charter labels as I wont be able to bring myself to write directly on the board. But yeah, Im in this weird place now where Im paying attention to the company and designer behind the games we play. Thanks for the response. Not sure what that would add to the production cost. 3 copies is a lot, but if it makes you happy, thats what matters! Was thinking Scythe could be the next one to try out? Somehow the visuals make me think of the movie UP. Will this game have a cone of shame? Any idea when and where we can get the digital version? * Joe is sending me some extra copies of the rulebook and Automa book Only half of the cards in Charterstone are sticker cards. I played the campaign on a physical board once, and via the Steam version a few more times. Is Charterstone playable if you play the first few games solo, then play with a group of 2-6 while still building the legacy part of the game? My wife is saving up for Viticulture and of course wine has its own magic of sorts and so do your games. Is any localisation to french planned ? Cant wait to receive my copy! Looking forward to Game #7 (either today or tomorrow). The cookie is used to store the user consent for the cookies in the category "Analytics". The replacement cards arrived today. The mechanism sure. 3. Any number of players. Hi. The overall feel and look of the game. But, I have suggested we try the Automa in Game #3 at least and see how it goes. Did you find what you were looking for? And thanks for the swift reply. There are 36 metal coins, 350+ unique cards, and 230+ wooden tokens in the box. I play in english too, my scythe is an english copy, but I imagine Charterstone has more text and that having it in in French would be easier for us Will second run include Polish language ? The first (i.e., pie bylands), makes sense to me. Just know that, depending upon the path you take, and what choices you make, you are in for one hell of a ride! But I play board games to actually feel the pieces and to interact with people i know on a deeper social level. Charterstone review. Charterstone is the first legacy-style board game from Jamey Stegmaier's Stonemaier Games, known for the hit strategy game Scythe. Tiles whose positions has to noted after each game round. We started with the Automas in Game #4, and they have won both games we have played with them. Half way through the campaign! This is on my watchlist. (Viticulture is my favorite and we routinely pull Scythe off the shelf.) Efficient. I am quite certain that this is something you guys have already thought of, so I am not worried. Just picked up my third. Minion abilities are triggered first. The cookie is set by GDPR cookie consent to record the user consent for the cookies in the category "Functional". Charterstone is a legacy village building that you build your own city based on how you and/or your friends play it. Hi, Ive never played a Legacy game before but I love Scythe, so Im very interested in another game from you. Its going to be really tight. Maybe just dreaming a little. Are there similar games youd recommend that have similarities regarding these elements? Thank you and Congrats for this gorgeous experience!!!! * I have ordered a second copy of the base game from Top Shelf Gamer (cheaper due to a damaged box) It took us a bit to see the beauty of it and it got us excited to begin that game; Wednesday is going to be a fun day! One of my criticisms of Pandemic Legacy was that once Id finished that was it. Im not sure how much more would need to be tweaked to facilitate a reset, but there are many many people who would appreciate that capability. Gong Studios is the other artist team who contributed. Ill keep you posted. You will now see a blank custom list on the screen. The campaign has ended! Viticulture was called Trellis early on, Euphoria was called Dystopia, and Charterstone was originally called Cornerstone. However, I think the digital version of Charterstone may already have some new elements, and if it continues to be successful, the digital developer may add more content to it over the years. And the third is the sheer laboriousness of reapplying 200+ stickers to cards and then resorting those cards back into the proper tuckboxes. For that, however, we will have to wait until Friday evening. :) Currently it does look like theres enough interest for us to make that pack. That means a lot to meIm glad you and your wife had a good time building your village. Id think theyd satisfy the needs of both camps. They had the largest drop rate at 55%. Or will everything included be integrated into the game somehow? Just yesterday my publisher mentioned that were putting more in the box at the price point of $70 for other games that add up to nearly double to the cost. I hear you dont like repetitive games. What is the benefit for a gamer? The Automa. The unique feature of Charterstone is that its designed to not just be played until everything is unlocked, but also after that (youre not limited to a certain number of games). If you have questions in future games, Id recommend posting them in the Charterstone Facebook groupyoull get a fast answer there even if Im not available. We do like our Scythe. 2. Hi Jamey. However, each player may not act on behalf of more than one charterit isnt possible or necessary. Thanks for the quick reply, Jamey. That was fantastic, this was my first jump into a Legacy style game. Would love to give this a playtest with my group! Heath: That is one of the reasons I recommend playing with the same people from start to finishyou have to learn more rules if you jump into the middle of the campaign. I hope the games decisions wont be as story-less as Ok, now your village can either pursue better shipbuilding or better trading. I know that Matagot will soon have it in Europe, but they will still need to ship it to Canada. It actually looks like were down to just a few recharge packs here in the US, so we dont have enough to restock other fulfillment centers at this point. I spent an hour trying to figure somthing out and see the cards would have helped but I know the names not the card numbers. If you asked your rules questions on BGG or Facebook itd be easier to avoid spoilers. you did it again just when I thought it was safe. Well, my husband was the unlucky one (3 out of the 4 of us had 26 stars, so the charterstone chose him). Many of the rules could EASILY have been spelled out at the very beginning in the rulebook but, instead, were revealed through the mystery of card drawing. Thematically, allowing it makes sense. Thanks for any advise! And as always, amazing quality, absolutely amazing artwork too, I love it. (Building where you spend 2 resources to gain 2 gold and 2 vp + alchemist where you can interchange resources for gold + The friend with +1 vp if you gain vp in your charter was just simply 3vp per round on continuous repeat.).
