Debrief: Falcons- the US Air Force Academy Board Game
Manage episode 517944399 series 3594693
We debrief Falcons, the U.S. Air Force Academy board game, walking through how it plays, where it shines, and who will love it most. Theme and art carry a brisk time-track system, with competitions and events adding light strategy and table banter.
• time-track movement around the Terrazzo
• academics, training, action cards and how they interact
• competitions with simultaneous reveals and odd second-place wins
• character tokens as hidden points and tie-breaks
• milestone challenges of Recognition, Commitment, Ring Dance, Graduation
• events that reshape later years
• best at three or four players, weaker at two
• art, flavor text and nostalgia as primary draw
• price, Kickstarter path and niche audience
• gift potential for grads and Air Force community
