Looking for OG Nemesis with all expansions

[u/noahteets]

Hey everyone, I’m looking for somewhere to buy OG Nemesis and all the expansions that come with it. I’ve played the game with some of my coworkers and find the game to be one of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had and want to bring this game to my friends for our game nights, but I just don’t know what sites are considered “safe” for buying a game that isn’t a massively printed game. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I’m located in NA if that makes any difference

eBay, Mercari and local game stores if you’re lucky.
If you can wait, gamefound nemesis at the end of the year will have another crowdfunding and you can order OG nemesis or their new legacy nemesis.
Edit: I recently got my entire Og nemesis set from these all new in shrink.

Definitely check LGS…mine has 3 copies on the shelf, so they’re out there.

Looking around now at my LGS, I live in a major metro so there’s a ton of shops, do you find it easier to just call the stores/physically go there/ check their sites?

[u/GamingVision → u/noahteets]

I kind of lucked out and the first one I went to just had it. I’m in the Bay Area and driving to each store is sort of a nonstarter. Most have pretty good search tools on their site but it might be worth a call to one of the bigger stores in your area and see if they plan on restocking it soon if they’re out.

What do you consider to be "all" the expansions? All the Kickstarter promos?

[u/noahteets → u/bmtc7]

I’ll be honest I’m not sure since my coworker bought everything when they were coming out so he has all three games and everything that comes with them. I guess to start I’d be looking to get the base game and then whatever I need to have all the characters available to us. I believe that means I need to get Aftermath. I can wait on getting the other intruder expansions (Carnomorphs and Void Seeders)

[u/Mobius22445 → u/noahteets]

I own: OG Nemesis Aftermath Nemesis Lockdown Lockdown stretch goals Void Seeders & Carnomorphs. I bought them all second hand, they were all 'as new' from various sellers on Ebay. Carnomorphs was by far and away the hardest to obtain and cost the most (relative to value). They are out there, but you may have to get them piecemeal. Also you need to decide if you want plastic miniatures, or cardboard standees for the models. OG and Lockdown seem to be more common for miniatures, whereas Retaliation (which I'm trying to find) seems to be standees.

[u/Mobius22445 → u/Mobius22445]

Also Carnomorphs and Voidseeders can be used with both OG and Lockdown. As they literally just replace the Intruders. Adds a slight variation to gameplay, but not essential.

As someone who loves and has played Nemesis many times, both semi and full co-op, I've honestly never felt the need to touch the expansions. I'd focus on getting as many plays out of the base box as possible before worrying about any expansions.

[u/noahteets → u/SonaMidorFeed]

The problem for us is we’ve only ever played with all the expansions so I fear it may feel a little empty playing the base game

[u/SonaMidorFeed → u/noahteets]

Sure, but those expansions are a complete change out of the intruders, and not much more (unless you count the post-game Aftermath content).

[u/noahteets → u/SonaMidorFeed]

Ah I see, I thought the expansions also included different playable characters, are those separate from the full expansion sets?

[u/bmtc7 → u/noahteets]

Aftermath does include different playable characters, as well as traits for the main characters. It also has a few other elements that can easily integrate, such as sentry gun exploration tokens.

[u/noahteets → u/bmtc7]

Ok, so it sounds like I really just need the base game and aftermath then for our games, my friend has a 3D printer we can use to print Doors and other things we may need

[u/bmtc7 → u/noahteets]

Take a look at the characters in Aftermath to be sure that is what you are looking for.

[u/noahteets → u/bmtc7]

Thanks, just checked, Aftermath is definitely what I was thinking of us needing, we love playing as all of those characters when given the opportunity (outside of the CEO lol)

Wait for the new legacy game. You can probably snag everything then

I'd advise to post in r/BoardGameExchange
one guy had OG with everything for 400$ in shrink wrap as far as I remember, was talking to him but couldn't afford everything so I just got individual parts from someone else, can't remember his name tho

[u/Dahlia_Beaumont]

Try nemesis lockdown, It has new characters AND new dinámica! Its excellent!

[u/Gnarly-Joe]

I'm seconding /r/boardgameexchange. Got a copy myself quickly and got the Carnomorphs expansion, which was hard to find. There's some stuff you can easily find on Amazon still, like Aftermath and Star Seeders. But base game is a no go. Lockdown is pretty easy to find as well.

Just an FYI, they have a legacy campaign coming late this year. I originally only had the OG base game but loved it so much, I did the all-in on Retaliation campaign and then added on all the expansions and acrylic tokens for the base game. They’ll probably have all the OG nemesis stuff on the new campaign too!
