I love this expansion as much as I love the game itself. Having real players to fill out your squad is just so cool it’s like real life FUT without scripting 😂. My only semi-complaint would be that the dice and points counter seem to have been just the blue team re-used from the original game. I understand why but it would have been nice to have something a little more special. Nothing major but just a small thing. Other than that it is perfect!
Me and my mates absolutely love these! We are so excited about expanding our super club and playing this game for years to come :) keep up the good work #IamJoseMourinho
It's a fantastic social game with plenty of replayability and a great community of footballing enthusiasts. Delivery is quick, the pieces are well designed and well made. I can't wait to make this a regular social event!
In depth enough to make a fun evening out of but also easy enough to understand (had to watch a YT vid of gameplay to understand some mechanics)
Makes every game matter, and not just up to random dice rolls. It is a must for smaller groups (2-3), since it makes every player matter and every match being a tactical duel. Love it!
Bought the game to take on holiday with my family for something new and different to play once little people were in bed. It was brilliant, everyone loved it and even my wife who is no fan of football played and ready enjoyed it
Great experience using the new powerhouse expansion. Certainly adds a new dynamic to the game when playing with less than the full 6 players. Captains trait is phenomenal addition.
Do think the actual method is a bit complicated on first use but expect that to improve with more uses. Also want to say the powerhouses totally dominate the early seasons which drastically reduce income - which certainly helps if we're after a longer game.
Really looking forward to the mystery pack to add more player traits into the mix.
It is a great game and lots of fun with friends and family. Highly recommend.
Fantastisk tillegg, artig å jakte sine favoritt Arsenal spillere.
Love the original game but this adds something different. We always play as a 3 and this adds a new dimension. Games do last longer but adds the extra twist. At first the powerhouses are alot stronger and normally wins the first few seasons but it evens out eventually after 3 or so seasons. Great addition.
As with the base game, was great fun playing. Took the game to another level. I would say is that, like with the rest of the rules or instructions, they are open to interpretation as to when you can play certain cards etc. It just means that the first time a card is used we've not come across before there is a discussion as to how to use it. A more detailed (online) glossary of cards in the game would be welcome.
Keep up the good work!

Me and my mate love Superclub, so I was excited to get the powerhouse expansion pack! It’s usually just us two who would play, so with more teams thrown into the mix it makes it more tactical, challenging and enjoyable than simmimg most of the games in a season. The new player cards are a great addition, especially the versatility players and more goalies! A must for any superclub fan!
So the game is awesome. The expansion needed and the powerhouse changes everything! I am so glad I bought the powerhouse as that makes this game a million times more interesting.
Now, I do have some things I would love to see in the future, and I will happily discuss them over a beer.
It's a good extension that changes the game somewhat.
But in my opinion it is an bit expensive for the additional content. Besides this I think it is just extending the game play time. You need to do more micromanagement for other teams. In addition, they are not very much a competition to the human players. The first few seasons they are too strong so they win everything. For one or two seasons they are a good challenge untill the human players getting too strong for them. So human players get less money and develop their teams more slowly as in the base game what is again taking more time in the game.
So overall, Powerhouses should make the game less random in the simulation but it's not getting more realistic. In my opinion, the starting position of the Powerhouses in the league when the season begins should be developing so it's a real competition every season.
Thanks for the feedback, sorry you have mixed feelings! Yes, the Powerhouses are very strong at the beginning, hence the name «Powerhouses». Your job is to build the first Superclub from scratch and to do that you must first catch up to, then overtake these traditional giants. As you get stronger, you’ll soon be competitive with them before you eventually get stronger than them in the end-game. But the real objective of the game remains: beat your human opponents to the prize. Thanks again – we appreciate the support and hope the Powerhouses expansion will grow on you
I have purchased just about everything I can from Superclub! Absolutely love the game.
What a fantastic board game! We have played a few games now and have throughly enjoyed each one. It has entertained 3 generations from 9-70 in age and has is the board game of choice in our household. We own the main set and both the Arsenal and Man City expansions. Looking forward to more expansion sets in the future!
It Is also of a very high quality (with the exception of the money - but that is a tiny gripe) and I would give 6 stars if at all possible!
