Planewalker Assassins

About a month ago we played a nice variant: Assassins.  We had seven, which worked out to be a good number for this format.

The rules we used are very close to those laid out in this article, with a few major changes:
  • Players may target whomever they wish with spells and abilities.
  • When one player kills another, they take their victim's card, getting a new target.
  • Players may only attack their target.  If they have their own name, they instead may attack anyone.
The only downside is the time.  We played one game which took us nearly 3 hours.  Definitely fun and definitely worth it, though!  This is my current favorite format for 7 people.  (I still prefer Cutthroat, 2HG, Cutthroat-Star, and Emperor for 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively.)
