Bugspan

Hello everyone, you asked and you shall receive.

Designer notes-

You will need 5 d12 dice (blank *I can add a file for that if you need)

You will need action cubes, and eggs (in place for larva)

I didn't design any goal cards for end of round or bonus cards.

Goals-

I want to push the boundaries of moving around on the mat/bugs. I wanted to make something unique that you can move in different directions compared to the traditional left to right or up and down.

This print and play are merely all testing concepts, I know and understand I may have mistaken; but I would love to hear back from you all on how it can improve.

Personal notes-

This was really fun to design, and I hope to hear from more of you and some more bug ideas or ways to improve the game. Thank you so much for taking the time as well. I really appreciate it.

This looks awesome!

Reading through the stuff, I do have a couple of questions, though:

First, I'm a little confused as to how the dice work. As I understand it, you take a die and get either the corresponding food or bug card to the number shown, but I only saw 5 types of food (plus some that have a gray box in the food cost that I'm unsure as to whether it represents the birds required you to discard/tuck a card or if it is a placeholder for a 6th food type) and I don't know how many cards are supposed to be in the face up display.

Second, on the play mat it lists the action for getting a die as requiring the player to discard a bug card; if you have to discard a card to get a die and get a new card, how do you increase your number of cards or get cards if you played all the bugs in your hand?

Thanks for responding so quickly! Unfortunately, when I click on the link in the original post to see the updated rules document, it says "File is in owner's trash."
