My group is finally going to have a chance to dive in this Friday, going with three players instead of four since we haven't been able to get the right tablefull together at the same time since December. BUT, I have questions.
Should I open up the box ahead of time and prep, or am I better off leaving it sealed till everyone gets there? Are there a lot of things to punch out, clean, and organize, or are things pretty much shrink wrapped, bagged, and ready to go once you open the box?
If we're familiar with "normal" Pandemic, should I give the rules a serious once over before hand, or will we be good to crack it open and just give the rules a quick glance through to remind everyone of the finer points?
Should I provide face masks and hand sanitizer?
