Let’s Play Chichén Itzà!! @Phoenix Comics & Games!

As the sun sets on the great Mayan empire, in the heart of Chichén Itzà beneath the great pyramids and temples, ancient seals that once bound mythical creatures have been broken. The gods and beasts of legend — serpents of the sky, jaguar spirits of the underworld, and other beasts of lore — emerge from the forgotten realms to reclaim the world of mortals. Their siege is relentless, their power immense, as they descend upon the sacred city to consume its glory, but the people of Chichén Itzà will not fall without a fight.

Chichén Itzà uses Area Majority, Dice Rolling, End Game Bonuses, Variable Player Powers, & Worker Placement. You must command your forces, harness the favor of the gods, and fight the relentless tides of mythical beasts. The game lasts six rounds, with each player taking four actions during each round. You pay an amount equal to the lower of the cost markers to the top and side of the tile you choose; anyone who takes this action later in the round pays the higher of the markers. You can choose an action only once per round.
With these actions, you move troops, acquire god cards, upgrade your four combat gears, fight legendary creatures, and reclaim the villages, temples, camps and ruins that have been taken over. At the end of each round, you see whether you've completed particular achievements, and your score is based on creatures defeated, areas controlled, achievements met, heroes present, endgame god cards and crystals collected, and more.
New players are welcome, and the host is happy to teach if you haven't played before.

A few important details:

• This event is scheduled to start at 2:30 PM PLEASE be on time! If you would like to bring a guest please message me.
• It's Cap Hill, so parking can be a challenge. Please factor traffic & parking into your commute and if you will be late post in messages or the Discord. Phoenix Comics & Games is about a block from several bus lines, the First Hill Streetcar (Broadway & Denny), & the Capitol Hill light rail station.
• If you need to cancel please do so as soon as you know. People on the waitlist and playing that day will appreciate it! Signing up for this event means other people are counting on you to attend; board games have both a minimum and a maximum player count, so with limited seats available, I want to be sure that those seats actually have people in them. Last-minute cancellations (less than 24 hours), no-shows, and late arrivals (30+ minutes) without good reason will be marked as no-show for the event and will be automatically moved to the waitlist if one forms for any and all future events they join which are hosted by me and other select hosts!
• SUPPORT THE VENUE! - Purchasing something isn't a requirement, but it's nice to do since we're using the space. Please support the business if you can!
• I open signups on Wednesday, 3 days before pressing the "announce" button here on Meetup; if you want to have the opportunity to claim a seat early, you can join the SBG Discord, where I'll post to let users there know as soon as RSVPs open as well as updates and posting polls for future meetups!
