Element: Silver [Scripted, v2.7]

Description
2-4 players, 30 minutes, easy-to-learn abstract strategy game about being master of the 4 elements to outwit your opponent! This game works really well with more than 2 players for a game of its kind.



--

Description from Board Game Geek[boardgamegeek.com]
:Fire, water, earth, wind — these four elements have driven mankind's mythology, philosophy and science for eons. Now, master the power of these primal forces in this abstract game of capture and area control.

In Element, players take turns drawing and placing four element stones to encircle opposing sages. Each element has unique properties that players can use to block an opponent's movement. Feed walls of flame, move raging rivers, raise impenetrable mountain ranges, and even bend wind to your command. Transform one element into another with the rule of replacement or sacrifice element stones to help your sage avoid capture.

Understanding the subtle, diverse, yet powerful nature of the four elements is key to surrounding your opponent and claiming victory!

Winner of the first-ever Boardgame Corner "Cornerstone Award".
----

Full rulebook included in the mod (very easy to learn. Video on this page teaches every rule).

Scripting for expansion setup, drawing out elements out of the bag, showing the number of moves available, setting up the board, and showing a marker where your sage started at the beginning of the turn. Also includes Game Keys under Options.

I will try to find a better scan of the board. Uses chry's really beautiful 3d room. If someone could find/make 3d models of the pawns, it would be appreciated.

Ah, I see, thanks.

It's not my setting. See with CHRY who made the mod with the room. See bottom of description on this page

Would it be alright if I used this setting ( the hut with the low table, lamps, and cushions) for the Munchkin: Avatar edition I made? I think it would really fit the theme. Let me know if that's alright. Thank you.

iirc, the bag already DOES reshuffle every time something enters it

Very nice mod! Thanks for making this.
A couple of suggestions.
[*]Turn OFF "Sticky" for the pieces. That way when one is dropped on another (to replace it) we can easily grab the bottom token to return it to the bag.
[*]Add a randomize seating widget. That way when we do subsequent plays we can mix things up.
[*]Script the bag so it auto shuffles anytime anything is added to it.
function onObjectEnterContainer(bag, obj)
self.shuffle()
end

v2.2:

- Added a button add all the silver elements to the elements bag, shuffle the bag, and then shuffle and draw a silver card

v2.0! :

- Added a proper high-quality board!
- Added the Silver expansion! including the tokens and the cards to select your Silver element
- Added the rulebook for the Silver expansion

I'll be adding a bit of scripting to more quickly add the Silver pieces into the bag pretty soon

V1.10 (I know versions weren't numbered but I added them to the changelog):

- Added a better description on the rule of replacement board
- Fixed the crooked board (a higher quality scan would still be appreciated)
- Fixed errors in the text that appears during set up

I'll be adding the Silver expansion very soon

I DO need a model of the board! So I'd very much like one!

I agree it's a bit convoluted for 2 standees. No feedback for scripting on the actual playing?

Hey Ed, I'm a little bit late to the party here, but here's my two cents;

Your board is crooked. Not sure if this is deliberate or not, but I'm sure you can straighten it out and polish it up. If you need a model for the board then feel free to hit me up.

I don't find the scripting to be very intuitive, it feels very "just because" and is very prone to potential missclicks and misunderstandings. You can and definitely should significantly simplify when you only need to place out two standees..
