What is Oath

In Oath, players guide the course of history in an ancient land. Players take the role of agents bolstering the old order or scheme to bring the kingdom to ruin. Oath is designed as a legacy game - the consequences of one game will ripple through those that follow, changing what resources and actions future players may have at their disposal and even altering the game's core victory condition.

If a player seizes control by courting anarchy and distrust, future players will have to contend with a land overrun by thieves and petty warlords. In a later game, a warlord might attempt to found a dynasty, creating a line of rulers that might last generations or be crushed by the rise of a terrible, arcane cult.

Players win conditions vary with the roles they choose. Each game will have one Oathkeeper goal and one Successor goal, two ways to win

the game. Oath can also be played as a standalone game or a solo game.

El manual es un galimatías , la mecánica de las reliquias está inconexa con el resto del juego, hay batallas que las haces a la desesperada sabiendo que es imposible y el King making es un factor importante: Es mi juego favorito. Un juego social como ninguno, la promesa de que cada partida puede ser una mecánica distinta se cumple. Es un generador de narrativa chulísimo le coges cariño a tu caja según evoluciona. Con ganas de la expansión para que solucione los problemas del diseño base.

Es un juego difícil de definir. Es un juego de cartas, pero que se manejan de forma curiosa. Cada jugador tiene un rol que determina sus condiciones de victoria. En principio, en la partida, si se llega al turno 8 y no ha ganado nadie, gana el canciller. Además, en cada partida hay un juramento, que hay que mantener y da la posibilidad de ser el guardian de juramento. Hay reliquias y estandartes que se pueden adquirir cumpliendo requisitos y te dan ventajas en el juego. Las explicaciones pueden ser un poco farragosas. No es un juego familiar, aunque una vez que te pones, tampoco es muy compli
