The Dragon & Flagon
Tavern brawl deluxe
The Dragon & Flagon is a tavern, famous world-wide for its drink named THE DRAGON! It gives the hero guests incredible abilities. However, unfortunately, only one bottle is left and the brawl for it begins, with all means at hand.
The 3D tavern including carpets, tables, chairs, mugs and barrels is set up and, depending on the number of players, you control one or two characters. You plan the actions for your character with the action cards from the character’s deck, using the three slots on the character board. When the character is active, that is, his marker is in the same time segment as the time marker, you implement the action in slot I and then move the marker the indicated number of steps on the time track.
Actions are implemented according to the orientation and the location of the character; for some actions, you have to be on the table, you can never be under the table, you can pull out the rug under somebody’s feet or throw furniture and mugs about, in short, behave as you would behave in a tavern brawl. Items that you threw go out of play. When the time marker’s case of the round if free of hero markers, you move the time marker after revealing an eventual end-of-game marker. When this results in the appearance of the City Watch, the game ends and you add the reputation for characters you control and win with the highest total. The game comes with a bonus expansion, “Pirate Brawl”, played on the back side of the board.
XL playing fun, the more players the merrier; the modular board offers endless brawl variations and the 3D components entice you to play, and you can even play tactical, if you want.
