Hello all. I'm thinking of expanding my current game collection and one of the games I'm thinking of is Chaos in the Old World (the other being Battlestar Galactica but that's another story).
While I'd like to get CitOW I'm concerned that the theme of corruption won't go down very well with my gaming group. I'm genuinely curious and my apologies in advance if anyone if put out by this question:
Has anyone ever encountered difficulty or resistance in introducing this game to others based on its theme? Personally I have no problems with it whatsoever (being a fan of Warhammer 40K myself) but my friend's wife might have some objections. I'd hate to let my enthusuasm for the world/content override the enjoyment of others.
I'm also wondering if victory in this game is determined solely by VP or threat dials - I've skimmed the manuals but not in great detail.
Ideally I'm trying to expand my game collection not only in themes but in game mechanics and I'm wondering if this will in fact be filling in a missing gap in either of these.
Many thanks!
