Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)

Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.

× WELCOME TO TRASHDOME!

This is part of a series of bloody matches to the death. Show support for your favorite game so it will do better in the fight. You can support it by writing why you think its the better game and more importantly by betting (i.e. voting for) it. Please make it clear for when I check the bets later. You have until Friday when I tally the bets and declare the winner. I will reserve my bet for any tie-breakers.

Although you should be familiar with both games, there is no rule that says you have to have played both of them. The only rule in Trashdome is this;

Two games enter! One game leaves!

Newcomer BSG is definitely holding is own against the seasoned veteran Dracula. Its not over yet though so anything can still happen.

I have to throw my vote to BSG.

I've played both from both sides of the table (hunter/drac in FoD, Human/Cylon in BSG). Both are very good, thematic, solid competitive/co-op mixes. My problem with Fury comes from card frustration. When the Hunters get the right set of cards out and the dice keep you from being able to drain them away it's nigh impossible for Dracula to do anything. I played a game as Dracula where the hunters exposed Drac right off and always had the perfect counter card when I did anything. It's frustrating in games like that because there's nothing you can do about it. BSG I've yet to see that. Even when playing as Tyrol the Toaster with nearly every important skill check publicized I could still find opportunities to sabotage little bits of the ship. I ended that game with a quickened jump that zeroed the population. The humans bought it as an acceptable risk because there were two troublesome basestars on the board. I was just hoping to blow the roll and I did. I think BSG's slightly better because it's hard to really marginalize anyone without keeping them in the brig. If it's a cylon, they may as well reveal if they're not getting out and go cause some chaos. If it's a human that can't get out, the humans handicap themselves further.
