    For those watching this not native speakers of the old Irish language known by non-Irish people as Gaelic, the word inis means Island, and it’s actually pronounced Inn-ish.

    Another great thing that they didn't even mention is how easy it is to set up the game and pack it up again and how little space it takes up. To start a game, its 3 terrain pieces, 2 minis for each player, and you ready to draft! Yay! This ease and lack of table space required is what often makes me choose Inis over other boardgames on most occasions.

    The Artist for the more psychedelic stuff was Jim Fitzpatrick, who is most famous for his monocolour picture of Che Guevara. He also did a load of Thin Lizzy Albums. His work is absolutely why I bought the game in the first place place.
    Another interesting point that wasn't mentioned is that while fighting may be costly, one of the more interesting things I've seen pop up is that fighting isn't often for the sake of conquest. More often it's very small scale and strategic; sometimes you're hitting a single clan in a territory you already control or even fighting to kill off your own clans in order to deny an opponent victory. It's a culmination of mechanics that felt pretty unique and interesting compared to typical territory control.

    • @jamesmontney865

      If so, it is really, REALLY powerful, as it allows you to "pass" your turn, without actually considering as a pass which means that if other players all pass you still get to play. You get a free turn where you see what other people play, and then you can play. It's really good!

      @Imnoonewhoareyou 2 года назад +1

      Played it only once so far but was with two players. Definitely quite different, since then you know what the other player has available to them (excluding the one action card that’s set aside at the start of a round). I don’t think it’s a worse kind of strategy, just a different kind. While I look forward to playing it with more than 2 people I’ll still play it with just my partner as well :)

    Does anybody know why the title "Inis" was chosen.
    I speak irish fairly well and I can't understand why this title was picked.
    In irish the word Inis can be used in the context of name of a place to mean island but can't be used on its own. Another meaning is "tell" such as "inis dom" would mean "tell me". It can also mean grazing land but is rarely used in that context.
    If anyone can answer me question or supply additional information I wold be glad to hear it.

      Right, but the nature of borrowed words is that they can often retain their pronunciation. english.stackexchange.com/questions/16627/what-loan-words-keep-their-native-pronunciation
      Of course, this is ignoring two points: 1. Inis is an Irish word, not an English loanword from Irish, and 2. I was simply offering information about that word. Your choice if you want to get angry about it.

      Daniel Korolev Cool, it doesn't matter. So you can let an Irish word have an Irish pronunciation instead of arguing it should be English and that's a political statement to say otherwise. That seems straightforward. Buh-bye so.
