BLOOD RAGE: "Življenje je bitka; bitka je slava; slava je VSE"

Veliko je za povedati o igri Blood Rage, ki je osvojila številne svetovne nagrade in je bila leta 2015 uspešna za svojega založnika, pa tudi za oblikovalca iger Erica Langa. In iz dobrih razlogov ...

V Blood Rage vsak igralec nadzoruje bojevnike, vodjo in ladjo svojega vikinškega klana. Ragnarök je prišel, in to je konec sveta! To je zadnja priložnost Vikingov, da se spustijo v bleščanje slave in si zagotovijo svoje mesto v Valhalli ob Odinu! Za Vikinga je veliko poti do slave. Lahko vdrete in ropate zemljo za njene nagrade, premagate svoje nasprotnike v epskih bitkah, izpolnjujete naloge, povečate statistiko svojega klana ali celo veličastno umrete v bitki ali od Ragnaröka, končne neizogibne pogube.

Večino strategij igralcev vodijo karte, sestavljene na začetku vsakega od treh krogov igre (ali starosti). Ti »božji darovi« vam dajejo številne dobrote za vaš klan, vključno z: povečano močjo Vikingov in zvijačnimi bojnimi strategijami, nadgradnjo vašega klana ali celo pomočjo legendarnih bitij iz nordijske mitologije. Vključujejo lahko tudi različne naloge, od prevlade v določenih provincah do pošiljanja veliko vaših Vikingov v Valhallo. Večina teh kart je usklajenih z enim od nordijskih bogov, kar namiguje na vrsto strategije, ki jo podpirajo. Thor na primer daje več slave za zmago v bitki, Heimdall vam daje predvidevanje in presenečenja, Tyr vas okrepi v boju, medtem ko vas prevarant Loki dejansko nagradi za izgubljene bitke ali kaznuje zmagovalca.

Igralci morajo v fazi priprave skrbno izbrati svoje strategije, hkrati pa se morajo biti pripravljeni prilagoditi in reagirati na strategije svojih nasprotnikov, ko se akcijska faza odvija. O bitkah ne odloča le moč vpletenih figur, temveč tudi karte, ki se igrajo na skrivaj. Če opazujete nasprotnikova dejanja in zvestobo določenim bogovom, lahko predvidite, katero karto bodo verjetno igrali, in ustrezno načrtujete. Zmaga v bitkah ni vedno najboljši način ukrepanja, saj vam lahko prava karta prinese še več nagrad, če vas uniči. Edina izgubljena strategija v Blood Rage je izogibanje bitki in veličastni smrti!

There is a lot to say about Blood Rage, the game that won many worldwide awards and was a 2015 success for its publisher, as well as the game designer Eric Lang. And for some good reasons...

In Blood Rage, each player controls their own Viking clan’s warriors, leader, and ship. Ragnarök has come, and it is the end of the world! It is the Vikings’ last chance to go down in a blaze of glory and secure their place in Valhalla at Odin’s side! For a Viking there are many pathways to glory. You can invade and pillage the land for its rewards, crush your opponents in epic battles, fulfil quests, increase your clan's stats, or even die gloriously either in battle or from Ragnarök, the ultimate inescapable doom.

Most player strategies are guided by the cards drafted at the beginning of each of the three game rounds (or Ages). These “Gods’ Gifts” grant you numerous boons for your clan including: increased Viking strength and devious battle strategies, upgrades to your clan, or even the aid of legendary creatures from Norse mythology. They may also include various quests, from dominating specific provinces, to having lots of your Vikings sent to Valhalla. Most of these cards are aligned with one of the Norse gods, hinting at the kind of strategy they support. For example, Thor gives more glory for victory in battle, Heimdall grants you foresight and surprises, Tyr strengthens you in battle, while the trickster Loki actually rewards you for losing battles, or punishes the winner.

Players must choose their strategies carefully during the draft phase, but also be ready to adapt and react to their opponents’ strategies as the action phase unfolds. Battles are decided not only by the strength of the figures involved, but also by cards played in secret. By observing your opponent’s actions and allegiances to specific gods, you may predict what card they are likely to play, and plan accordingly. Winning battles is not always the best course of action, as the right card can get you even more rewards by being crushed. The only losing strategy in Blood Rage is to shy away from battle and a glorious death!
