Algeron


 

Hi Everyone:

I have looked for the Algy rules and finally ordered the Summer 09 version from the TFL website, thinking this was a complete ruleset. It may be complete, but I am not sure. There are no cards, which I believe drives the game. What ever happened to these rules? Are there any cards to download? I cannot find any in the Files. I have wanted to play these for sometime, but they seem to be out of print. Any suggestions??


 

Algeron is in the specials of the magazines for 2009,if that is of any use. Bryan money

Aahh, Algy. One of my favourite TFL games.

To be honest Algy was never really in print. Version 1 was based on BTH, then you had Hexless-Algy where Rich was developing a mechanism so you didn't need a hex-mat to play it on.

I believe it's one of a number of rules due out at Easter. Unfortunately it wasn't this year.

“Algy Flies Again” also known as “What a Fokker”, a hexless version, was in development last summer when I had a few socially distanced garden games with Rich. The basic mechanisms were in place and it would have then been a case of fine tuning. However repeated lockdowns have paused the process.

I suspect that when we return to a more normal way of life then WAF will return but as you may guess, there is quite a backlog on Lard Island to do! It may therefore be ready by “Easter” - just not sure which one!

A belated thanks! I tried to piece together the game mechanics as best I could, but it looks like some Easter someday will have to do.?

Try contacting Rich and see if he still has the rules and if he would send you a copy. If he doesn't, I have them and could send them to you with Rich's permission. I also have some of the files that pertained to Algy.

Ah very good of you indeed! I have the 09 Summer Special, which has what I think are updated rules. No cards though. Are these the rules you mean? And I have downloaded a file "Algy Custom Cards" but it is not clicking just how they work. So I am thinking I do not have the complete picture. Much thanks!

I have the original Algy rules PDF. IIRC the 09 ones were quick play or something like that.?
