Game day was a little mixed up. WO couldn’t play games today and it wasn’t the same without him. We played a new (older release) game called Nexus Ops. BE not only brought the game but some pizza to share. The game went long and we only got one sitting in.
The game play is a mix between a chance dice roll game like risk and a goal driven game. Players are assigned resources each turn to buy units. Battles are fought between players with dice and the loose gets cards that might give them an advantage the next time they do battle. The goal of the game is to complete some random mission cards. A mission card could be to destroy a particular unit type or hold certain board spaces. The game plays well and there is some good strategy to consider.
