And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that just as there’s nothing wrong with Goat Lords being similar to Cover Your Assets. If you do not take it too seriously, small disagreements about the rules will not lead to hurt feelings. It can be a pretty brutal game at times if you can’t burry your large goat groups before someone else steals them, but that’s how the game works.

Our mission is to produce engaging articles like reviews, tips and tricks, game rules, strategies, etc. Are you willing to battle with your friends, hurt feelings, and play aggressively to become the Lord of the Goats? I only took off one star for this (when normally it would be at least two stars off) because this is clearly supposed to be a silly game. OBJECT OF GOAT LORDS: The objective of Goat Lords is to be the player with the largest herd of goats by the end of the game.I’m in no way shape or form related to nor do I know the creator of this game or anyone at Gatwick Games. If the attacker wins he or she collects all of dueled cards including the opponent's top pile and adds them as a stack to their goatherd!

Action cards change the strategy of the game and throw twists to your plot to dominate the know Goat World. Join the community and come discuss games like Codenames, Wingspan, Brass, and all your other favorite games!they both love the game, love stealing stacks and particularly love winning the 'mega stack' through careful playing of action cards or wilds. Gameplay continues until a player reaches one thousand points or until the group decides it is over. Take top card and place it face up; this will act as the start if the discard pile (A wild cannot start it).

If I only have my base stack and others have top stacks, can I use the Merry Goat Round Card (trade your top goat stack) to trade my base, which is my top and only stack, with another persons top stack? PS it comes with a coupon code inside the box which can be used to purchase the expansion or another game from them! Every time you win a duel or play a successful action card, your goatherd value goes up, making you more likely to win, but also a target for your fellow Goaters. Stacking Tip: Stack the first pair vertical, then the next horizontal, then alternating, keeping the corners aligned in an 'L' shape. Also, if you do make good use of the rotate card, you can then play a new pair of goats on top, meaning the big stack you just stole cannot be easily stolen from you.Anyhow, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and their own review but I don’t think accusations of stealing are the way to deal with that opinion. The only way an opponent can defend their goats is if they play the same goat card again or a wild card.
