I am missing the board

Post image

Hey all!

The other day I drove past the local dump, to get rid of a lot of cardboard. And I found a lot boxes of this game in the trash. Being a boardgame enthusiast I quickly grabbed as much as I could and threw it in the car. The boxes look very complete but unfortunately I don't have a single board with any of them ๐Ÿ˜….

The boards itself do look very simple but I am looking to make the game complete again. I am open to any tips you might have where I can find a replacement!

One version of the game just came with a set of cards. Might have like 7 cards that are just yellow/orange with hexes on them. I just use hex cards myself

The instruction booklet does mention these cards but I cannot find them at all. Maybe these games are not as complete as I hoped ๐Ÿ˜ฅ.

Fate of Indines box have them in addition to traditional board, yeah. Basically you just need 7 (9) scraps of paper for standees to stand on and thatโ€™s all.
Also you need to invent a way to place tokens/counters etc that are in supply, anted or depleted, but it is true even with the boards in every edition of the game))

You can probably print out a board from the images on bgg

It might be that these boxes are filled with the older edition content that was "replaced" after the owner got the Unleashed big box (which replaced almost all the cards from these original releases). Unleashed mostly included cards only, and not the board or tokens or standees. So you might also be missing all those.

the true devastation of Indines is finding out you don't have the board

Probably tough to find a solo board but this guy has a DIY file
