@jerk
@boardgames @geekygoodies I only own Lockdown. Are you talking about how players need each other to keep the lights on in each section and check the face down (contingency/escape pod) tiles?

@ryedaft @boardgames BGG classifies Battlestar Galactica as semi-coop. Maybe they see switching invisible teams only later in the game as a sufficient condition. This is indeed enough to have the same player cooperate at times (and not just to disguise their true intentions) and compete at others. Although I am not sure this matches their own definition:
"[...] cooperating and competing with each other throughout the game, while
trying to complete a common objective."

@boardgames @ryedaft BGG's top games in the "Semi-coops" and "Traitor"
categories do have some titles in common (from the Nemesis and Battlestar
Galactica series) whose only mechanic that could possibly be seen as
semi-cooperation is indeed (a certain version) of the traitor mechanic.

The page on semi-coops indeed claims that there are several ways to implement
them, and that the Grand Winner format (e.g., Republic of Rome, John Company) is
but one of them. (1/2)

#WhatDidYouPlayMondays John Company

@boardgames @geekygoodies
All other semi-cooperative #boardgames I know focus on a clearcut distinction between (semi-)good players and traitors, given by secret personal role/objective card(s). This game is innovative in that *everybody* is driven by personal gain, and the only reason players don't screw each other over all the time is that people still need the company to stay afloat.

@FrankCavil coincidentally, we got busy with #saboteur, too. My trick as a host is stressing the rule that assigns fewer points if you are sitting far away from the player concluding the round (clockwise). This allows innocent miners to also pose as saboteurs, just to ensure the player to their left doesn't play the last card.

It's one of the rules making the game so unique in its genre, but people usually never learn it.

The Serf from _Bristol 1350_ (on the left). Holly Hancock and Sarah Keele really get the macabre feeling of 14th century art right. This side of the card is meant it be used as rules reference. It is an accessibility disaster, because it is meant to emulate the unreadably small handwriting found in medieval manuscripts.

@lemonuri
@sic_semper_tyrannis yeah it should be a small icon pointing to the post on the original instance, i.e. https://social.edu.nl/@foxy/113880789237759779 Not sure if you specific client allows this, but the Lemmy webapp does

These are just slight tweaks over my previous setup. All backgrounds, except for
the web browser's, are now fully transparent. These include the status bar, the
terminal emulator, and the PDF reader.
