Sofia M. ★★★★★

I was worried fan-made factions would feel unbalanced, but these are clearly vetted and play surprisingly well. The variety of powers keeps every game fresh, and my group has already cycled through most of them.

Sofia Z. ★★★★★

Twenty new factions is a lot more content than I expected from an expansion, and so far none of them feel like filler. The fan-submitted designs actually hold up against the base game ones.

Hazel B. ★★★★★

I was honestly skeptical that fan-made content could match the official factions, but these 20 are so well-vetted they blend right in with the base game. The balance feels tight, and my group has already had three heated evenings trying out different ones.
