Leder Games Root: The Clockwork Expansion, LED01009

Root definitely benefits from having at least 3 or 4 players and this expansion really helps in adding another player or two. Some of the bots are harder to run than others (I'm looking at you Vagabond) but after a few turns it all sinks in and the bots are really well designed, hats off to those involved! I've also used this to play solo, only against one of the bots and they put up a good fight with room to increase the difficulty too. If you love the puzzle of root then I recommend, however you do lose the personal touch that comes from playing against humans so don't expect it to capture that.

Great game

A fairly easy automation system that still gives a good game.

This is a Fake product the box was damaged with no plastic coating like normal root boxes, cards are overly plastic with fuzzy text while the player boards are faded warped and cheap. Do not buy this. (Photo of cards a real one is on the left Fake on the right)

Tudo excelente ...

A specific gift request fulfilled. I’m pleased.

No es la versión definitiva de la expansión. El creador de la misma ha estado publicando a manera de "fanmade" las versiones mejoradas de cada facción e incluso incluyendo las más recientes (lizards, topos, Riverfolk, Cuervos) de manera gratuita en la página de Boardgame Geek, bajo el nombre de "Better Bot Project". Por lo tanto, esta expansión solo me sirvió para tener un manual a la mano (el cual contiene un error gravísimo que se tuvo que corregir para el Daylight de la Facción de los Pájaros Mecánicos (ver en la BGG: "Electric Eyrie Errata") y unos cartones para pegar los stickers que corrigen todo. Lo mejor sería que hubiese una segunda edición revisada y mejorada. En resumen, una expansión errática que puede mejorar pero solo si te dedicas a ello.

Relación cantidad, precio es mala, resulta caro. Van pocas piezas. Esta expansión hace que puedas jugar al juego en solitario, pero has de tener el juego principal. Esto solo es una expansión. Calidad buena. Dibujos bonitos.

This expansion adds an updated version of the mechanical marquise faction from the Riverfolk expansion, a significant and highly improved update that fixes the balance and makes it simpler to actually run it. On top of that, it adds three other factions that are clockwork versions of the Eyrie Dynasties, Woodland Alliance, and Vagabond, allowing for cooperative or single player play against any of the four base factions, or to fill out a game with less players who want more factions on the board to compete against. There are also additional cards that you can use to modify the difficulty and abilities of any of the clockwork factions, which adds additional accessibility for newer players as well as more experienced ones. Overall a very good option, this plus the base game makes for a great starting purchase when learning to play Root.
