Betrayal at Balders Gate.

Check game break down after the break




Nice fast paced game where one of you is the traitor!!!!!!

You choose from 5 racial types (Drow, Dwarf, Human, Elf, Halfling) each has their own character classes one to choose from on each side of the Hexagon card.

The adventurers take it in turn to explore Balders Gate, each tile represents a location in Balders Gate some may give you new items or start the Omen storyline.

Each time an Omen card is reveled you roll a dice on a combined total of 6 the Omen starts, this is where the main quest is reveled and the traitor is decided.

The traitor is hidden by the choice of a token, and can decide to reveal themselves or allow the other party members to guess and second guess the choices taken by the other players.

Tonight's game required the Traitor and the Cultists to get the Skull of BHAAALLLLLLL!!!! ( sorry in party joke) and take to the temple and spend a turn doing their evil acts. The heroic party have to take the Skull back to the tavern and party on to celebrate a job well done.

The traitor was the red robed wizard (Jay Dog(so now named after famously eating 12 bratwurst in one evening)). He merrily dispatched all the of the party baring the 318 year old Dwarf (Me), who in the last turn stuck two stumpy fingers up at the wizard and down a pint of the taverns finest from the Skull.

Loved the game and the mechanics can see this being played more.

What board game are you rocking at the moment.
