That was a really engaging video. Thanks for doing this at such a busy time.
Good new show – nice to get a preview.
Lots of my friends are eagerly anticipating this release.
Cannot wait till we can bust out a game of this @dignity gonna make for some fun games!!
Can’t wait to put my hands on that expansion. Looks good and 2 on 2 fights are nice addition.
Awesome video guys. I’ve been looking for a new board game for a while and I think I’m sold on this!
I’m tempted to try this game, just because everyone keeps talking about it.
I think the game is probably better if you don’t watch the show. The primary reason I haven’t even looked at this game is its association with the show (which is greatly overrated, very much style-over substance). It’s like 300, really pretty but if you take away the cinematography the rest of it really is crap.
Spartacus just got more vicious! – got to get the expansion. Thanks
I was hoping in this expansion to see animals in the arena. Possibly giving a player the opportunity to decline putting in a gladiator (or slave) but instead paying the host or bank for a bear or lion etc (depending on what you could afford) and so not losing an influence. The player would then control the animal (using it’s stats) giving an unexpected twist to a fight or a primus. Maybe next time…
Ok guys just played my first game of the new expansion so time for a lil update the game is even better now with all the scheam cards and reactions got to play with the new wolf house and their house abilities are amazing for earning gold and keeping you safe from your opponents scheams. 🙂

I’ve got to get me a copy of this game, it sounds brilliantly brutal 🙂
it is but it’s also sneaky and devious 🙂
Four player games are no good for us, six players = this on the gaming table.
Genuinely liked the video format. Good informal way of looking at new games. Allows you and the viewer to look/ stumble through the rules. (The best way to get to know the games 🙂 )
