Wifstrand Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 What exactly is the difference in rules between the original Puppet Wars and Puppet Wars unlimited? I used to play PW back in the day but I sold it a few years ago. As far as I can tell (though my memory on the subject is hazy) there isn't that much of a rules difference. Am I correct?

solkan Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 There are a lot of significant differences between Puppet Wars and Puppet Wars Unstitched. For example: There's no longer a Run action Puppets no longer have a fixed ability to move two spaces, some can move faster. There are no longer Free Actions. Actions listed with a (0) mean that you don't perform a flip for the action. "I Need This" is written in as a sort of special rule that can be invoked when tearing apart an adjacent enemy puppet, rather than a free action. A lot of the abilities and actions on the puppets are different The Blocking rule doesn't exist (It's in the index, but not the rules. I found the post by Justin confirming that it was removed deliberately.) There's now a limit on the number of sidekicks allowed on each side The animation card is chosen after drawing a card, rather than flipped and substituted. There isn't an option to go without an animation card in an animation round. The only special things that Aces do in Unstitched is count as having their suit twice There are probably a few other differences. It's still a game with puppets and cards, but there are enough differences that you'll remember how to play wrong. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wifstrand Posted May 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2016 Thanks, that's very helpful! I really hope they release more stuff for this game - like just one box with some more masters and sidekicks like in the old days. But I'm not holding my breath :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
