    - Game Description -
    Root is a game of adventure and war in which 2 to 4 (1 to 6 with the 'Riverfolk' expansion) players battle for control of a vast wilderness. Like Vast: The Crystal Caverns, each player in Root has unique capabilities and a different victory condition. Now, with the aid of gorgeous, multi-use cards, a truly asymmetric design has never been more accessible.
    The nefarious Marquise de Cat has seized the great woodland, intent on harvesting its riches. Under her rule, the many creatures of the forest have banded together. This Alliance will seek to strengthen its resources and subvert the rule of Cats. In this effort, the Alliance may enlist the help of the wandering Vagabonds who are able to move through the more dangerous woodland paths. Though some may sympathize with the Alliance’s hopes and dreams, these wanderers are old enough to remember the great birds of prey who once controlled the woods.
    Meanwhile, at the edge of the region, the proud, squabbling Eyrie have found a new commander who they hope will lead their faction to resume their ancient birthright. The stage is set for a contest that will decide the fate of the great woodland. It is up to the players to decide which group will ultimately take root.
    In Root, players drive the narrative, and the differences between each role create an unparalleled level of interaction and replayability. Leder Games invites you and your family to explore the fantastic world of Root!

    ROOT is my constant. It's the only game I've ever created fan content for (my avatar picture is my faction) and it's my consistent mobile app game player too. I'm a Corvid player most often, having graduated from the Woodland Alliance. Ultimately, I keep chasing "my next Root." I can honestly say it can't be found. It's the greatest war game of all time.

    Hot take: the otters are most comparable to the vagabond. You want to try to encourage other players to cooperate with you in the beginning, lay low, until your economy is strong enough to turn the tables on the players. My best games as the otters are always where I have four or so troops out for the first half, keeping prices low, and commiting funds from other players as often as possible. I let people know cool things they can do with my services and then start building a power block on two to four trading posts. Then I trutle up and score dividends, they need my mercenaries or boats yo get around my power block and my card prices are too low to resist

      Ive seen a lot of people losing hope that theyll add the expansion to digital. Personally I will drop the digital game if they dont. The maruaders add so much, and hireling and landmarks... I was disheartened to hear so many people losing hope so I reached out to dire wolf and got an email that said
      "We're always looking for ways to improve our games and that includes bringing as much content from the tabletop as possible."
      What does "as possible" mean in this context, i dont know. But personally I am taking it as a good sign, but I am extremely bias.

      ​​@@Magicman1625personally we dont play with hirelings or landmarks much. Set up does take a min, but once you know what youre doing its pretty easy.
      Hirelings seem to add a bit to the game, especially time. When I did play with hirelings we narrowed it to easily set up/understood hirelings.
      For landmarks the same, usually an agreed upon landmark is used then randomly placed. Or something like lost cities on moutain map instead of tower.

    Uhhh can't say I get the notion of "having" to sell unused games. Maybe if you do have like 50+ games it becomes a question, but for someone who has 3 at this time (Root included), it's a weird thought. Anyway, if you really want to get rid of games - garage sale? :D
    Also, Root Digital is officially on Steam and is probably a solid way to teach the game.

    On winning games when teaching, yeah, dont win too fast. But i find winning allows the players to reset and fix errors they were making along the way. I tell them we are getting more games in dont worry, its about the process.
    I also take advantage of terrible errors, leaving building undefended usually to show it was a really bad miscalculation, but that doesnt usually happen.
    By the 3rd game in I usually start losing and trying diff strats. Versing new people is a different ball park. They do not have the same way of thinking, they are not "optimized". Love seeing what ideas they pull out.
    The new strats i try keeps it interesting for me and makes the other players feel like theyre not versing some person who is handicapping themselves, which I am not, I really do just suck sometimes...
