Alternative Play / Re: 1v1v1 - 3 Players game

[2][-][-][3]
[-] [-] [-][-]
[-] [1][-][-]

sorry for that bad "painting" [-] = free field
  • = fiel with mage



so how did you thought this out to be even=? 1 is nearer to two then to three in this case, or nearer to 3 if you put it 1 field to the right
Or do i miss a point?
as i coudn't play till now i don't know in how far that would matter

that could work: 3 additional spacecs, each player needs 4 spaces to get to eachother^^

edit²:
Another option would be this setup
[-][-][1][-]
[-][2][-][-]
[-][-][3][-]
guess the first moves will be something like this
[-][-][-][1]
[2][-][-][-]
[-][-][3][-]
That leaves the third player nearer to each of both oponents but also grants him the option to cast a full action spell^^

Alternative Play / 1v1v1 - 3 Players game

Hey,
i wanted to ask if there are any working concepts for a 3 players game... (as we are 3 ppl playing that would be great, because just to watch could get a bit boring^^)

- as far as i thought of it the 3 player game would need a map made of triangles, kinda like the triforce from zelda (just a row of triangles more^^)

Am i totaly wrong with this idea, or is there anyone who already tried 3 players game and can tell something about it?

Well could afford this but the big problem is: I (ok not I personally, but the person who will give me this on christmas^^) got the last copie avivable, didn't find another one^^
Ty for the information about rules and playthrough, i will search for them right away^^

(Atm i just ordered two corespelltomes... but from USA to Europe sending them just costs as much as a spelltome-,-) + not sure if they arrive in time^^


edit: OK while reading the rules i see that my idea of simply adding a field and removing 3 to bring the 3rd mage in a triangle fails cause there is no movement diagnolay... are there any other ideas for 3 player game?

edit²: ok guess i got the rules thanks^^ doesn't seem that complicated... waiting another 14 days will get harder, though :(

General Discussion / How to learn the game...

Hello,
first of all: I'm not a native english speaker, so please tolerate if i write something in confusing ways^^

So the situtuation is the following:
On christmas i will drive home and get Magewars, from my hometown i will take two old friends with me to my new town for a boardgame-marathon. (We play 4-6 days in a row, all kinds of boardgames^^) - so usualy, as all the games belong to me, i know the gamerules, played the game and am able to explain everything - not so in magewars.  As i read it takes several houers to read the rules and get into the game, i would like to ask if there is a good way to learn magewars without haveing the components^^

+ As we are three players we would like to play with three players, obvioulsy. As i don't know the rules, i thought about simply adding one square to a corner, remove some fields, so we get at 4x4x4 triangle, in wich every corner start a mage - is there anything else to consider? (+ would one of the mages be in huge disadvantage / advantage in 1on1on1?)

Already thanks for the responses,
Tokata
:)

Edit: Ps: since we want to play with 3 players, wich extra material do i need? (like quickcast / action tookens etc) ( I plan to prox it with components of my other games^^)
