Quoted from PanzerFreak:I think the rules of Stern's POTC overshadow it's cool toys. For destroying ships its just hitting the same ship shot over and over again. 3x or whatever for the first ship, then 7 for the second, etc. None of the rules work the playfield in interesting ways, just hit the same shots over and over again for points with little mode choreography. It's a shame Keith Johnson didn't do the rules at the time (he may have been on LOTR during that time).
This is an unfair criticism, destroying the castle in MM or the cities in AFM you repeat the same shot a number of times. SM as well, great games but repeating the same shot to battle or destroy something. That just works you are in a fight with a ship so hit the ship with a ball causing damage that’s brilliant. What do you want to do hit a shot away from ship for who for what? It’s a great toy and a great easy to understand rule to sink the ship.
Quoted from Vyzer2:The magnetic ring in lotr. Even better with Niro’s lightening.
Love that one.
Quoted from boagman:I'm kind of offended that the crane toy is attributed to BM66 rather than BDK, and that's precisely where I fell in love with that toy.
I greatly look forward to being able to try out P3 Multimorphic's "Heist!" to give their version of a crane a proper shot. It certainly does look impressive to me.
What about Junkyard??
