Tonight I taught 4 colleagues how to play Cosmic Encounter. In the last turn we had 4 colonies each. One of them attacked with two allies. We played cards and I lost the battle. He then played Emotion Control, so we swapped colonies instead. They learned fast!
There was a moment where, before a defense, I used a flare card which shuffled my hand with the attacker's and gave back the same amount of cards. We picked up the cards and had the same cards as before. I felt like I had performed a very silly magic trick.
The second Cosmic Encounter night went great! Two new players, chose to leave the previous races out to show the other players how varied the game can get. :)
Amazing game. It works because it doesn't. Power dynamics are different every game. Players need to adapt to the chaos. See what happens to an overpowered virus player after a few rounds, for example.
