I own Runewars and banners of war. After 4 3 player games of which 2 with the expansion and 2 without, I am finding that the player who stays out of hostilities the longest goes on to win the game. This has been the case with all 4 games. I enjoy this game and it has some great elements to its gameplay.However it seems to me that it has a major fault in the fact that its a wargame that rewards the most timid player. As two players go head to head all as the third player has to do is watch and step in at the right moment and mop up.
We intend to play this as a 3 player at our next session and see if the same thing happens again or if there are viable strategies to prevent this. I just wondered what other peoples experience with 3 player were.
