Hey guys, I’m trying to see if one of the two games is worth getting.

I really like Battlestar galactica and got every extensions. Now the problem with Battlestar galactica is that the game is very long and it takes a lot of time to explain the rules to people… From what I’ve read Nemesis can fix the issue as the basic rules are simple and quick to explain and the game only needs 1 player to know the rest.

Now I have several questions: -I read that like in BSG people may have different objectives. How does it work exactly? Do you get these from the start? Can you become an enemy mid-game because you got infected or something? Is there some kind of bluffing involved like in BSG? -I don’t have much board games, but this one looks expensive to me. Is there any reason for it and do you think it’s worth the money? -What would your recommend between Nemesis and Nemesis: Lockdown? -Do you think maybe there are other games that may be a good replacement for BSG?

Thank you!

    Thanks, this is more clear, I had definitely misunderstood the conflicting objective part, thinking you may even get infected and switch side.

      The infection is something that can kill you. If aliens attack you may get status card which you need to examine (only by useof item or certain room) to see if you are infected. If you end the game but are infected you die and loose. There aren’t any sides really.
