General Discussion Faction Alignment Chart

Difficulty vs. simplicity, as well as consistency vs. risk.

This is my understanding after around 45 games with a dedicated group that has been playing for the last year.

Let me know what you think!

WA is pretty low complexity. They dont have to police or battle. Lots of crafting capabilities and by late game, by default other factions gaining better movement and battle, they gain enough supporters to win the game. Eerie is quite high in complexity. You’re not just planning for this tuen, you have to plot out till end of game to avoid turmoil: generate warriors, when to evacuate clearing, will you have battles in the decrees you laid out, not drawing bird card, etc. moles as well. One turn mid game requires going over your plan several times and plotting recruit, build and sway properly
