I really disagree with this review, the cats get the fastest start and are expected to try and take advantage of that, the woodland alliance however…

Visually it is superb, but it feels really imbalanced. The Cats really struggle to do anything with 3 actions per turn, especially as they have multiple enemies. The economies of scale don’t exist to support cats, and losing clearings make you more and more weaker.

There are quite a few rules that aren’t explained, and the game is fairly complex. Took a hour and a half before we even got the first round done from unboxing.

We spent more time discussing and arguing rules than playing 1/5.
