Great to see AL reviewed! There's been a lot of feedback on the rulebook, and the second printing will be significantly updated. The updated rules will be uploaded to boardgamegeek soon, and the latest draft is available for download now: www.dropbox.com/s/5gdg5pd19ft49zd/Albions%20Rules%20V2%20-%20Working%20Document.pdf?dl=0
Played our first game last weekend and had a rough time. Your review actually answered some of the rules questions we still had! I'm sure our second game will be more fun.
1:00 nonsense you don't need to put everything in advance. the rule book IS the soul of the game. Such a pity starlit quit, loved your explanations. Weird background music though.
+dannalbob Definitely different games. Shadows is very much simpler / more stream-lined with less thematic elements. Albion's Legacy is more complex, highly thematic and more about questing
Hey guys. I've been watching through all your old episodes for game recommendations, but was wondering if you know any resources for game design at all? I'm working on a concept for my first game, but would love to know if there are any great resources out there for testing mechanics and crowd-sourcing ideas for fluff text.
Great game, and great review. This game really needs to come back into print, with the expansions.

As far as I know, second edition is on the way and the rulebook has been reworked. Regardless, this game is great and the artwork is beautiful.
Thank you for reviewing this game!
This definitely looks like my kind of game! I love Mage Knight, specially my solo runs. I would like to know how does this one compare to Mage Knight?

How does it stack against Shadows over Camelot?
+dannalbob They are totally different games. Both Co-op and both fun! Love Shadows. Love Albion's. Love Arthurian Legend so...

+Fish in a Barrel I know reddit has a board gaming design sub-reddit and Board Game Geek does too. I'd start by checking those out and asking them.
"must be the violence inherent in the system"
Such a pity ti have those beautiful character image and having to put them face down in the table....
i'll skip this one and go the dentist instead.
