At the beginning of each turn, a player grabs 3 stable resources (solid colored dice) from the pool and rolls them. How do you get resources?! You spend your game scavenging, that’s how. You can’t build unless you have resources. Points are earned for building progress and the first player to meet the designated point target (determined by the number of players) wins.Įach player begins with the same core structures including a warehouse, supply exchange, construction and upgrade.

We’ll record seasons of what we want to watch then catch up on all of them when the shows go on hiatus. A one-two punch with Netflix and the DVR has been our saving grace.
