Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done (Standard Edition)

Good but...

Would be better with more player interaction

Crusaders:Thy Will Be Awesome!

Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done is an excellent strategy game with an intuitive ruleset, great iconography, and an easy to understand/hard to master strategy. There's a lot of challenge and replayablility here, the wooden figures are high quality, and the variety of player characters make the game different every time, especially with randomization. Add in the Divine Influence Expansion and you've got a nearly infinitely replayable game with even better balance. There are a couple characters that are a bit difficult to use but this is easily one of the top tier games I've played in the last 5+ years and an essential part of any board gamer's collection!

Rondel Macala Mashup

Tried a friend's copy and had to pick it up. Just liked the ease and fun of puzzling out the mancala to build and crusade for victory points! The production quality even on the standard edition is top notch. Was happy to pick it up before they were all gone.
