A Gest of Robin Hood adapts the COIN system to depict peasant revolts, feudal tax collection, and outlaw activities in late 12th century medieval England. A simpler format and a more approachable setting makes A Gest of Robin Hood perfect for newcomers to wargaming. At the same time, it also offers a tight challenge for more experienced wargamers who can enjoy a tense asymmetric duel in under an hour.

Surely you Gest

Excellent entry into the co-in series Great theme, beautiful art work and relatively easy rule set.

Love it

A great introduction to the COIN system. Easy enough for non-wargammers, deep enough for veterans to have fun. It's a tight game where every move opens up new opportunities and you have multiple points where the game self-balances for an enjoyable experience at both ends of the table.

Best thing for any board gamers

Great quality, good for keeping track of ACTION Points in games and life points.

One of my go-to ; everyone should own a copy

One of my favourites to introduce non-gamers to something other than mass-market boardgames.

The collaborative aspect makes it so the shy folks and the competitive ones can both enjoy the game simultaneously.

It's easy enough for kids to understand, but complex enough to be challenging, without being soul-crushing.

The design of the "board" is just simple and elegant.

I mean; it won Mensa Select... that's all you need to know.

Excellent

Order was processed quickly and received right before Christmas. Would recommend using again.

tales of Arthurian Knights

Very beautiful looking game. Love the large book full of story. Didn't get it to the table yet but look forward to it.

If I fits, I sits

This is not going to be a game for everyone, especially if AP (analysis paralysis) players or having to frequently refer to a player aid is a concern. Each time you take and place cat cards, players will need to consider how each type of cat scores; this means either constantly looking at the player aid or memorizing the scoring for each cat type.
That aside (or rather once I got in the swing of which cats scored what), I love the puzzle nature of the game and how sometimes you have to take some negative points to achieve a greater good. ;) Even if I have to play this one only solo, its staying in my collection for quite some time!
