A rough theme what with slaughtering all the prisoners, but a great game once you get the available new rule set online.

Yucatan
- 76 cards (63.0mmx88.0mm)
Your warlords will become more and more formidable, your city more and more glorious, but your opponents do the same, so enlisting the help of the mythological creatures and heroes will be necessary to try to restore with blood, the energy of your gods.
In this game, your goal is to capture prisoners, and the Yucatan peninsula is your playground. Prepare for four seasons of fierce fighting. At the end of each season, you will ritually sacrifice captured enemies to gain reputation, but be careful because the gods are demanding: Each of your sacrifices must be more glorious than the last. Each decision matters in the subtle balance required to make your city the glorious and eternal sanctuary of the mighty Mayan gods.

Fun game, a lot of action. Doesn't even matter if you lose a fight, as long as you get enough captives
Really enjoyable game, even though all the new rules clarifications help, and the new rulebook. Symbology takes a bit to get used to. Can be quite challenging turn to turn, but the gameplay is tight, and you feel the challenge.
As a quick review of a recent owner of an all-in KS game bought secondhand, the rulebook is certainly not the benchmark for rulebooks and there are some annoying design flaws… but the game mechanics sound great. I will edit after a few games. Edit: upgrade to 9 not 10 because the game is not asa quick as promised. The mechanics is incredible, the theme is really engaging. I really enjoyed my two first games although I did not win either one… Get the right files (rulebook 1.5.4, latest player help and stickers) the rules are simples yet the game is deep!
I participated in the development of Yucatan as an alpha tester for 5 years. This game is a pure delight to play for those who are looking for a fast, nervous game, but not without strategies, bluffing or resource management.
