I'd take a caution before backing. Phalanx has quite a lot of unfulfilled Kickstarter (I think about 6-ish or so. Someone can correct me). I believe my oldest one is Coalition but there may be project that's later than this (again, someone who backed their older project than Coalition can verify if the previous ones are fulfilled). Coalition is still not manufactured and slated to be fulfilled next year (2025). Project funded in 2021. I think general consensus is that Phalanx will fulfill. However, that's what everyone said about Mythic Games before the fiasco. I'm in for 4 of their projects: Coalition (2021), Purple Haze (2022), Bretwalda (2022), Huang (2023), and Huang is the only thing they fulfilled so far for me. Therefore, I'm not backing any of their games until I receive the remaining 3.
In my experience metal coins significantly improve the play experience. I would say if you and your group are into a specific game they are certainly worth as much as a 50 dollar investment. Me and my friends played 7 wonders so much that the metal coins made the game very satisfying
In real history the Christians should have realized that Muslims were in different camps like later we see Catholic and Protestant so that they could have made a deal with one faction against the other faction of Muslims, so this game should allow us to do that. It is NOT a case where only Christians and only muslims can make deals. No, and the same is true Saladin could make deals with the Latin Christians vs the Orthodox for example.
Looks good but wife isn't going to play with me and no solo mode. But I love that part of history.

Very interested in this one, still on the fence as not sure how much will get played. Thx for covering!
Looks cool but since I missed the coins I’ll probably skip this one
Looks like a fun one. I like this theme a lot. As much as I love metal coins I don't know if it is worth that much extra money.
