I bought this game in October 2007, I am from Costa Rica, and has cost me to play this game. I have to accept it, this game is great! I joined several groups, but are not very interested in playing a game for being complicated and lengthy. To date, only once, five people play! The rest just with my girlfriend, ironically she has won more times! It has passed the same thing to you?
Low players!
No, my girlfriend doesn't play, sadly.
My girlfriend asked me to teach her how to play. By the time I almost finished explaining the base rules she got borred. I'm lucky that i bought this game with 3 of my friends and most of the time we play 3players+. We played in 5 only once.
My new girlfriend says she wants to learn it.... We shall see. I can count the girls who like complex boardgames on two hands (versus the 100+ board game fanatics I know).
But the nice thing about Starcraft is that it does play fine with only 2 players. It also plays faster. This is one of the reasons I like Starcraft so much. There are really GREAT boardgames out there, but they mostly have to be played with more than 2 players.
Just so. Most boardgames only work with a special number of players regardless what the box says, but StarCraft can really be played with ANY number of players from 2 to 6.
girls who like comlex board games? you must be joking...
well maybe i have jumped to early concluisionsconsidering i have yet to meet a female boardgamer among the lots of male boargamers i know....
Wow now I am surprised. I am from Czech Republic and I live in a very small town (15000 citizens) and I have no problem at all to get someone to play. We play usually at 4 but there is no problem to play at 6 if we wish.
