Each game will build upon the previous one and add something new! :). Finally to the creators: thank you so much for being an active member of this community board. What do you do after playing all 12 campaigns? . Im sure you already answered this type of question somewhere in this comment section. I no longer use Facebook; so here I am. Im not sure yet if Charterstone is for me, but I look forward to learning more. Thats amazing, Kyle! 1 offer from $19.95. :) Also, one of the reasons we included metal coins in the game is related to something you saideven if you stop playing Charterstone at some point, you still have something useful you can use in other games. Never dreamed Id be able to design board games for college. Right? Hi, Ive never played a Legacy game before but I love Scythe, so Im very interested in another game from you. I will seriously take your copy of Charterstone if this is a game you have decided you do not want to play, and you are located somewhere from which we can get it shipped relatively inexpensively. We shall see. John: Thanks! So glad you found this useful. I really need to play pandemic legacy and looking forward to Seafall. Next time :) Game #11 is tomorrow (well, at this hour technically, today). Game #12 is done, and it was wonderful! Hi! :). No problem. I wish I would have been warned that there was a heat sensitive item in the box because I wouldnt have left it in my car during spring and summer days. I read somewhere that you might be making a digital adaptation for PC. I will end my current campaign soon, and I think that I have people for new campaign, but cannot find any Recharge pack here in Serbia in any board game store, also I am seeing that here Recharge pack is sold out. I am not sure if we will wait for the pandemic to be over and see if we can put together a six player game, or if we will see if I can convince my two boys to join us for the next go-round then, oh, I dont know buying another copy of the game so we can do two more campaigns. Buy buildings from the card stock, get them into your charter. 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. At the end of the legacy campaign some of the buildings arent as useful to have in a charter as others. Charterstone features the following: streamlined starting rulebook: learn as you play and add rules as you unlock content engine-building elements within each game and over the course of the campaign a branching storyline where short-term decisions have a long-term impact a secret component found in only one other board game Import. . Travis:Thanks! Do I have to pre-order it? semi-cooperative playstyle But the total number of building options throughout the course of the campaign is nearly triple that number. Please say blimps! Efficient. I can understand the idea of not wanting the inactive charters to take away anything; my concern is founded on the idea that in a 2 human + 2 automa + 2 inactive game, many buildings simply never get built. Take my money already Jamey. As someone who loves to design games and tinker with those I own, would you mind sharing your thoughts on how you came to this particular choice? I have a question: If the campaign was played with 1 or 2 players, would the end result be just as easily (and fun-ly) playable with 6 players? Your journey through Charterstones many secrets will last 12 games, but it doesnt end there. Your comment may take a few minutes to publish. We looked into that a few months ago and learned that the stickers were likely to peel off if we did that. Thanks a lot and thanks for your availability.and sorry for my english XD Ok Jamey. And Game #4 is in the books! But, if the game does not click with you, I get that. Roll the dice! thanks. We could consider it, though Id be really hesitant to make it that easy to access all the spoilers in the game. Under My Contacts, select the folder where you want to save the contact group. Like, from the very first sentence on this page, its noted that Greengully has been ruled for centuries by the Forever King. Any number of players. Please let us know. Love this game! Id like to pre-order charterstone, Dec is soooo far away. Expeditions Expeditions. Finally we ended with the same situation that one player could establish an engine where the other player may be can compete but would never had a changes to catch up with the finall scoring in the final 4-5 games. Also she wants to know how to get an extended Tuscany board. But, when you are done, let me know if you plan to keep the board and the resulting non-legacy game. This was one epic jorney and every game was simply amazing. The attention to detail is beyond reproach, the presumed insistence on quality pieces (metal coins instead of plastic or cardboard coins), the craftsmanship of the wooden pieces you go out of your way to create an heirloom quality boardgame every Stonemaier game Ive played so far is extremely well thought out, designed, created, and manufactured. She demoed it at Lexicon and realised what a great expansion it was. They had the largest drop rate at 55%. I dont want to spoil anything, Bruce. Thanks for the report, Rupert! I can see why they would not use this option. It is because of your high quality games and great customer service that we have (currently) 5 of your games and plan to get more. You could do that for a game like Lords of Waterdeep that only ends up with a handful of buildings, but in Charterstone you have 54 different spots for buildings on the board and another 8 per player mat. Hopefully there will be a reprint sometime soon or Ill have to see if I can stretch to buying a 4th copy, although I am running out of room for another charterstone box. Feel free to chat about it in fully spoiler detail in the Charterstone spoiler group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/charterstoneboardtrading/. Charterstone will be released via retailers in early December. Hi. Im even more honored to hear that you connect with some of my other games too! I have two questions (they are quite similar). Click Add Members, and then add people from your address book or contacts list. It was a pleasure! 1. You could feasibly sleeve it after the campaign is over when you continue to play itat that point youll know how many cards you have. Charterstone is about all about buildings, opening crates, amassing resources, gaining influence points and victory points through a wide variety of objectives and goals. Many thanks for confirming my inquiries as the reason why I asked was that I heard typical legacy games are just for a limited number of plays. Thats an interesting idea. Btw I saw this wont go to KS, but I was wondering if you are really done with KS or if you might go back someday ? The game looks amazing. Im going to pelt Stonemaier Games with cash :). First time player of Charterstone (just finished game 2 and unlocked peril) and I accidentally ripped a sticker off the board! Maybe you could do a Charterstone Lite game like Lords of Waterdeep in the future? :). This game sounds awesome, and would be my first foray into a Legacy game! One was the consequences of Game #6 (not going to spoil that one!) The best experience will be with the same people for all 12 games, but if someone needs to drop out for a while and then return, you can absolutely do that. ;-), Oh well, I have never seen a Thursday as full as this year. The game itself starts off very simple with players having limited choices. CLARIFY: The original rules from the rulebook (4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15, 17, 19, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25) not any updated ones that may occur during the game. The campaign is divided into a series of separate games. And the third is the sheer laboriousness of reapplying 200+ stickers to cards and then resorting those cards back into the proper tuckboxes. Im glad you had a fun experience with Charterstone, and its one of those games where I think its great if you modify it in a way that is unique and special to your copy, even if it goes against the rules. We put our order in today :D https://store.401games.ca/catalog/8317561/charterstone-pre-order-2017. Minion abilities are triggered first. Yes, youll continue to use them, but theyre randomized for post-campaign games. But it occurred to me that if you discovered this mid game, which is when you would probably discover this, a resource where you could instantly look these up would be handy. Dear Jamey, thank you so very much for this beautiful game! Your completed village will be a one-of-a-kind, variable worker-placement game. If you click on preferred retailer (within the main text), youll be taken to a list of hundreds of retailers, all of whom are accepting pre-orders. However, this is a perfectly fine place for you to house rule this rule, especially in a 2-player game. Hi, Im really looking forward for Charterstone to be released. (Viticulture is my favorite and we routinely pull Scythe off the shelf.) Hy Jamey, i am a big fan of your work. 3 copies is a lot, but if it makes you happy, thats what matters! Thanks! Cheers Jamey and looking forward for more GREAT boardgames from you! It does, however, leave me in a bit of a quandry I have ordered a recharge pack, and depending upon how that is supposed to work I truly want to make sure that the game I have remains pure because I do not want to spoil future modifications that could happen to that board via the remaining buildings, chests, and so forth that have not yet been explored. This is a wonderful and amazing game. Stephen: I would call it light fantasy in a medieval world with no spell casting by the players. Aggaga! No spoilers, but the end of Game #2 was AWESOME! The other, I am curious about. Is it possible to get it shipped to sweden? In Game #4, with the two automas, we had to adjust our play because the Automas were going to move that progress token whether we wanted it to move or not! At least for Charterstone, the legacy aspect is just building your own board unique to others. We feel that the LESS you know about Charterstone, the MORE youll enjoy the experience. The particular potions and their number vary, but all such buff potions sell for 2. So the face-up advancement and objective cards at the start of Game 2 are drawn from all those revealed during Game 1? Id say its disheartening when the enthusiastic gamers who could support your new project, or at least wait before passing judgement, are simply taking the easy route and criticizing something before it actually exists. Cant wait! A central concept to Charterstone (and indeed to any legacy game) is the thrill of discovery. Its an exciting time for me too, as Im slowly getting the typeset files from my graphic designer. Well probably sell more shirts in August/September. I have been super excited to play it. I cant say too much without spoiling stuff, but Ill express it in a way that Ive mentioned on a few podcasts: There are a limited number of places for buildings on the board (36 total at this pointthe number has changed). Christopher: Thanks for your question! Round one was 2 out of 5 stars. You can get updates about the digital edition of Charterstone here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CharterstoneDigital/, Hi Jamey, A city-building campaign game is really an unexplored branch. ;-). Buff potions. We are completely in love with the game, which is a great compliment to you as it is really difficult to find a game that both of my daughters like (the older one is more the competing type, the younger one the cooperative type). The campaign will increase the difficultly compared to the post-campaign game, which will be just as difficult as the final game of the campaign. The village you create will remain infinitely replayable. Matagot in a few weeks. Would it be a problem to keep going or do we have to start over? The scenario established by the guidepost was awesome! 169. If you place a Robot, you will gain an Advancement Card, before you pay the cost of the Building. Thank you, Nicholas! Game #11 it is hard to put into words how much fun that one was, and how enjoyable the end-of-game choices were! I highly recommend that you do not download or read this material until after you have completed the campaign! You should have seen the look on my kids face at that reveal :) That was one of the most surprising legacy components we had seen and we have played through season 1 and 2 of Pandemic.

I just gave hints to my local retailer that this game is going to be a worldwide smash hit and they should get themselves on the retailers list, and pasted the link. I appreciate that stickers arent for you, but this is a situation where its better for me to lose a customer than to add a huge amount of unnecessary frustration to those who choose to buy Charterstone. You are a terrific designer. How long would you say you design a game until you then start going full steam into production? While we dont have any expansions in the works, I think its most likely that we might explore new content in the digital version. Build and Discover in Charterstone! :). Drag a corner, and when you see your checkbox . The first (i.e., pie bylands), makes sense to me. Any plans for a Charterstone 2? Ill pass it on to Acram Digital, the developers for the digital version. She loved every minute of it. In this game, we will be playing with 4 Automas. Did you find what you were looking for?

Hello Jamey Congrats on Scythe! Hey Jamey, Maybe you have already thought about this (or it might have been suggest already), but I thought a neat idea for the digital version of Charterstone would be to have an option after you have completed the campaign to order your final customized board. Thank you so much! I went to the space, paid my coin, selected crate 17 to open but didn't get any cards. Mirjam: Thank you for letting me know! One possible and easy way to give people that are shy about this type of game extra incentive to try it might be to make the board double sided, and let people buy a 2nd kit that is just the stickers and extra stuff from this site so that at least they can play it twice. So thank you for that. The post seems to have disappeared. If you place a Butler, you will gain $1 from the General Supply (if possible), before you pay the cost of the Building. In Charterstone, a competitive legacy game scaled for 1-6 players, you construct buildings and inhabit a shared village. WE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE EXPERIENCE!!! We opened it up last night to play and found out we couldnt play the game at all. A chest was opened that unlocked a whole new type of card that we had not had available to us before we are in Game #10, just as a reminder and they are cards that would have been very, very useful earlier in the game!

I love Charterstone. :) We wrapped up playtesting back in March, and the game is currently wrapping up production. Is there anyway to get hold of the artwork for the Charter Boxes, so that I can make a second set of boxes to stow the non-shared resources between games? I realize that its infinitely playable after completion but everyone loved their initial play thru so much we have decided to buy a 3rd copy this weekend in order to take to our family reunion in June. :), To be honest, despite the 7-year-old trailing the pack in Glory, I took the hit at the end of game 6. You could even make the game board double-sided with one side for sticker use and the other for tile use. Thanks for your answer and my best wishes for this game. Is any localisation to french planned ? Hey Jamey. When it ended, the 7-year-old said, I love Charterstone! The feeling was mutual. As the end of the campaign approaches, we are looking forward to seeing how it wraps up, and we are a little saddened by the fact that it will all be over. I like the legacy mechanics I have seen in other games so far (though no so much the ones that just add a new rule to each game), and feel like theres a lot of interesting ground to be explored in this space. So awesome! 863. :D. I dont really get legacy games, so please tell me if I have understood it correctly: If a player makes som poor choices and builds some buildings that do not work together well, then forever after any player who has the misfortune of getting that player mat will be at a disadvantage.
