Kay (and Margie) have been playing Wizards 101 for quite some time, but today there was a Pirate 101 game kicked off at the house that I made noises about joining …
Okay, so this isn’t the most in-depth and thrilling game in the world. But the combination of (a) sidekick / companions / “crew” you can pick up along the way, and (b) combat handled through move planning and assignment on a grid, make it actually a pretty darned fun game to play.
Just realized why you like Pitates – MINIONS! You have alwaysed loved having minions to command.
Who, little ol’ Controller/Mastermine *me?*
Well, yes, I do like minions (as called out in (a) above). But the tactical planning is also very much to my liking (with a timer to keep it from being too fiddly).
