Hi, all, I recently ran a mini-tournament of Strange Synergy at KublaCon, a game convention in San Francisco. I thought I'd give a very brief report on my...
I've posted a file on the group, it contains 15 new Team Power ideas. (and the existing ones, for completeness.) I owe thanks to those who made suggestions...
Hope this doesn't sound like a dumb question? I love the game but would like to get away from using a board and more to a miniature setting. Does anyone have...
Probably the easiest thing to do is to use inches (or measurement of choice) for measuring the ranges on the powers. This has the side benefit of sidestepping...
Greetings strangely synergistic people... Just got the game and have a question - Looks like each team has all of their characters take their turns prior to...
... turns prior to the next team. Seems like that may not 'be fair' [and I may have read a note about it in a rview?]... has anyone experimented with somehow...
... to ... Some are a little unbalanced- but then, this game isn't necessarily about balance. The Brutes and Tectonics seem pretty useless. Brutes, when...
... That's a fine brainstorm you got there. The pirate idea was kind of cool, but i don't think it matters much, when in my games over half the powers are...
... That's why the powers become secret again if any kind of ambiguity comes up. I figure all the team powers are pretty weak anyway, so this seems about par....
... This is what I did last game: I separated out the gadget powers, then dealt 6 to the Mads, 3 to the Goths and Orcs, and none to the Cats. Then I dealt out...
The situation: one player (me) had a warrior with Invisibility, TesserKnight, and The Moves. An opposing warrior had Anti-Magic Aura. Fortunately (sort of),...
... See now, my purple team is Jackie Chan, Iron Monkey, and Bruce Lee. My game is out on loan, so I don't remember their power. Something to do with kung...
... Someone suggested previously allowing mad scientists to pick up as many gadgets as they wanted to for free, ie, without using up an action. I find the mad...

Does the Minotaur card allow you to Strike at an opponent with a power card/base attack and then Move/Strike with the horns?...
How about a team called the Bugs. They each have one random power. 1. Mosquito's Blood Drain: You drain one health using a sharp attack next to an adjacent...
Just picked up SS a week ago. It has to be one of the best games I have ever played. I can't believe there isn't a lot more activity here. I special ordered...
It's not a limited release, just a normal SJGames product. I run it at cons regularly, and it always gets good reviews, though some of the power combinations...
... Aye, several MIB run it regularly, including myself. We even had Live Action Strange Synergy at Origins, which seemed to go over well and will be repeated...
Live SS! I have never been to a con but that is enough to sell me. What scale is it run? How do you communicate? Hopefully you don't use real rifles and...
wow. I disappear a month, and the group gets some life. cool :-) to comment on some things regarding team powers.... ... well said. Though it's good to...
Level of frustration rising! I can't get anybody to play SS, everybody is busy! So you folks interested in a PlayByEMail game? How would we keep people honest...
