Colt Express Bandits Expansion- Doc

Description

Ludonaute’s Colt Express was a huge hit back in 2014, winning the Spiel des Jahres award. As a result, it’s earned itself some excellent expansions – and here’s another one of them! The Colt Express Bandits Expansions are a series of six separate mini expansions. Each one provides the means for the players to compete against an extra competitor for the train’s riches. This time, you’re playing against Doc, himself…

Colt Express: Bandits – Doc allows 2-5 players to shoot, loot, and program their route throughout a 3D train. It’s a classic American West train robbery, where players have asymmetrical powers. Only this time, Doc isn’t one of the playable characters. He’s has his own deck of cards, but he’s a rival bandit ‘bot’ with special actions. He’s also looking to strike it rich!

To an extent, you need to work together with your fellow bandits to ensure Doc doesn’t walk away with the prize. But remember, there can only be one winner in Colt Express – and that’s the richest bandit.

In Colt Express: Bandits – Doc, if any of the bandits manage to land a punch on Doc, or shoot him, they earn his respect. Quite literally! They take Doc’s ‘Respect’ card. Once you have this card in your possession, you then get to make decisions on Doc’s behalf. Doc’s bullet cards also have special effects when he fires. These are different to the standard bullets players have in their pistols. One of Doc’s cards is a ‘Poker’ action. When this triggers, all bandits join in and hand over one of their loot chits! This is where the Respect card kicks in, because the player holding make a decision. They give Doc two of the loot, and then they distribute one loot to each other bandit… except one unlucky gambler!

This expansion for the Colt Express: Bandits series brings out a whole new side of Doc!
