Description Edit | History

Game description from the publisher:

Waterdeep, the City of Splendors – the most resplendent jewel in the Forgotten Realms, and a den of political intrigue and shady back-alley dealings. In this game, the players are powerful lords vying for control of this great city. Its treasures and resources are ripe for the taking, and that which cannot be gained through trickery and negotiation must be taken by force!

In Lords of Waterdeep, a strategy board game for 2-5 players, you take on the role of one of the masked Lords of Waterdeep, secret rulers of the city. Through your agents, you recruit adventurers to go on quests on your behalf, earning rewards and increasing your influence over the city. Expand the city by purchasing new buildings that open up new actions on the board, and hinder – or help – the other lords by playing Intrigue cards to enact your carefully laid plans.

4 Regex' horizontal tuckboxes for sleeved Lords of Waterdeep cards
You got this game that has a great insert for the cards, but when you sleeve the cards - they no longer fit! This is a box set with a special horizontal design suitable for sleeved cards that would help you store your sleeved cards (standard Mayday thickness). The boxes also feature a nice graphics design and a content list on the boxes. Make sure you don not print from the browser preview and you disable fit to page. Note: The boxes will not fit into the box together with the insert. I am currently working on a rework to the insert that would allow it - but for the time being, just remove the insert. Get more of my horizontal designs here: [geeklist=66710][/geeklist]

11 Lords of Waterdeep Faction Special Abilities
I read on here some people wished the diff factions actually had an effect on game play, so I threw some ideas together. Wanted to do more than just give a bonus adventure cube or gold, and to stay within the themes of the factions. Hopefully none of them are too unbalancing. Am open to suggestions to improve or modify.
