Kachina Expansion Coming from Bucephalus

U.S. publisher Bucephalus Games will release an expansion for Kachina, most likely in Q3-Q4 2010, according to designer Scott Caputo. “No official name yet for the expansion,” he says. “My playtesters were really excited about this expansion, so I have high hopes for it when it’s released.”

In a February 2010 post on BoardGameGeek, Caputo sheds more light on what players might see in an expansion:

I’m not sure how many details I should release at this time since I don’t know if Bucephalus Games plans on making any changes to the expansion I submitted to them. But I think I can safely say the Kachina expansion will feature at least four new kachinas with interesting new powers. The expansion has been designed to keep the game length close to the same and to make the game even more compelling for 4-5 players. Of course, the new kachina powers should make the game even more fun and strategic for all numbers of players.

I wish I could say more about Kachina, but the one time I played, I was literally falling asleep between turns late at night at Spiel. Kudos to my fellow players at the time for not mocking my weary self…
