Also, you don't have to be a Firefly fan to play it, many of my family members who have never seen the show still enjoy playing. The Respectable Folk set includes companion Inara Serra and preacher Shepherd Book while the Wanted Fugitives set includes physician Simon Tam and the gifted River Tam.

The Jetwash set contains: A new Firefly Series IV model (yellow-green); ship card; color-coordinated ship dice (yellow-green); a drive core card; new ship upgrades; a new Leader crew card; sheet of game tokens; a new Set Up Card; and a new Story Card. One of my isolation tasks is to learn the great games I have and in post isolation teach them to others. The different jobs, mixed with a different crew, mixed with the overall strategy of that crew to accomplish the mission make the game exciting as a Solo play adventure. I am thinking of a random chance of removal of discard items from the game, or additional movement for the Cutter and Cruiser.Crew may choose to Act Casual or Act Heroic and each pose has a unique set of actions that the Crew can perform on their turn, but be warned – while no one’s gonna pay much mind to someone with a casual demeanor, acting all heroic is sure to attract unwanted attention. As you build your crew you can also take on jobs from five different contacts: Patience, Badger, Amnon Duul, Harken (the Alliance douche) and Niska. They mention that the missions are interesting and provide a wider range of approaches to the missions. Play as the crew of Serenity and use a bit of fast-talking, a dash of technical know-how, a bit of misbehaving and a heaping helping of Thrilling Heroics to make sure the job gets done and you get paid!

Firefly Studios was established in August 1999 by Simon Bradbury, David Lester, and Eric Ouellette, [3] who met while working at Impressions Games.

I'm constantly interrupted with family things, so I tend to leave the board set up in the 'game room' so I can go sneak off and play a couple of turns in-between the crazy times. After starting his career writing about music, films and video games for various places, Matt spent many years as a technology, PC and video game journalist before writing about tabletop games as the editor of Tabletop Gaming magazine.

You need a giant table (LOTS of card piles / the board / ship etc), not much interaction between players.Part of the fun was setting-up the game and being amazed at how many components there are and they all work so well together.
