Oathsworn kickstarter opened today. There is a mystery gift for those who sign up in the first 24 hours. I do like that there is a standee and a miniature edition. Standee costs $99, miniature costs $179.

My main source of retirement is going to be real estate. I plan on owning 10+ homes outright by the time I retire (in 14 years), and rent each out for about $2-$3k so generating about $200k a year (real estate taxes being the major expense). I agree with everything that has been said about...

If you only got the older stuff, then my guess is you should be receiving it soon. CTG uses QM Logistics, and currently they are shipping Trickerion Special Edition or someshit, and TMB is next in their queue, so I would expect they will start shipping the TMB stuff in the next week or two.

Tainted Grail is in production, is suppose to be on the boats in October, which means you should receive the game late Oct/November. Too Many Bones.....are you talking about the S&D kickstarter, or did you order from the website? If you ordered from the website, they should give you a tracking...

This should definitely be done before you acquire any funds for your project via KS or other means. It is in your best interest to make a clean money trail for the IRS. If you take in the money as an individual, only later to form a S-Corp, LLC, or whatever, and then transfer money, this will...

I'm on PS4, name is Mizake_the_Mizan, so shoot me an invite if you want. I played PoE for years on the PC and I quit a few years back; more recently, I started playing again only on PS4, mainly because I'm lazy and I like playing in front of my big TV. The game is incredibly clunkly on PS4...

I've been toying around with the idea of designing a game myself, although mine is a board game, more along the lines of something like Gloomhaven. Did you by chance read the book by Jamie Stegmaier? It's called A Crowdfunder's Strategy Guide. I got a lot of useful insights out of it, maybe...

The beginning and the ending sequences of The Last of Us. I've been playing computer games for over 30 years, since the original Wizardry, Ultima, Adventure.....and I've never played a game before where I became so invested into the characters as Joel and Ellie in TLOU.

The promo cards consist of 2 parts. The first part is a "randomizer" deck, so it's all 14 current characters (6 from original season 1, 8 from season 2), and the idea is you can draw from the deck so randomly choose which character to play. Well, you won't have season 1, so really you would...

So I made this suggestion earlier, I think to Maul. If you go in on everything in the Kickstarter, you are not going to be able to play anything until July 2020.....a year from now. Personally, I would go on their website today and buy Season 2 Battle chest, with the sleeves if you want. Skip...

Seriously. Hateyou? More like Fuckyou, the little devil on my shoulder that whispers shit like "oh, you don't sleeve? Have you seen these beauties? How can you resist?"

For those interested in 7th Continent but don't have it, they just released their remaining copies for the US. The site is being HAMMERED. I managed to get in and get the expansions I was missing. https://shop.seriouspoulp.com/ They are releasing a cheaper version of the game in the future...

Ok, you got me going down this rabbit hole. I'm gonna get the S2 sleeves. This has been my most-played game the past month.

My suggestion to you.... So, I got Season 2 already. I only found out about this game like a month ago. The reason I got Season 2 is because the battle chest is such SUPERB packaging. All 8 characters in one box. Really great artwork, the trays are fantastic. Season 1, on the other hand...

*desire to sleeve intensifies* Oooh....that's dirty. That really does look good. I didn't realize they weren't the generic cellophane looking sleeves. Buuuut.... it looks like the $231 bundle only includes sleeves for DTA and the Treant and Ninja characters. So I'm assuming the Season 1 and...

Nope, you get the Rosella gifts also at the $132 (Latest Loot) level. The $100 price difference between the 2 levels is that the $231 level also gets you a playmat, dice tray, sleeves, and the painted miniatures. If you take the $60 out for the miniatures, that means you are paying $40 for...

I've been following the same 2 as well! I went in on DTA, I have the season 2 battle chest already, so I went with the $132 bundle. I am tempted to get the $60 minis, but honestly I'm not a huge mini person or painter, so I think the standees will do just fine. Maybe I'll add them on later...

I bought 4 games: Mansions of Madness 2nd edition Pandemic Legacy Season 1 (red) Mysterium Tokaido The first 3 games I've always wanted to add to my collection. Tokaido I know nothing about, but I got sucked in by the packaging and visual presentation of the game. I was tempted to get...

We are still trucking along in our campaign! Sidetracked by my board game addiction and buying a ton of other stuff.....but we still play GH the most, TMB second...probably Aeon's End third. We did have our first retirement, our scoundrel retired and was replaced by the quartermaster. I'm...

Yeah, I went in on Middara as well....at the $275 level, not the $500 level. Gloomhaven is still my #1, so as long as Middara is the epic dungeon-crawler campaign it claims to be I will be happy. I'm glad you are enjoying 7C with your wife. We started playing together but for us at least 2...

Ok I ended up playing it for the first time this weekend for about 4 hours. I decided to try it with just 2 of us. One of the best things about the game is setup-teardown. It is soooooo easy compared to any other game I've played. No exaggeration, it takes less than 5 minutes to set up and...

A question for those of you with 7th Continent. Because I've been late to this whole board gaming phenomenon, I had to pick up a copy of 7C for sale from BGG marketplace at markup. I will be playing it for the first time this weekend. I have my usual gaming group coming, so 4 of us total...

First off, lol at the T-Rex @Hateyou , that's awesome. As far as TMB goes, it's fairly easy to learn. It plays well with 2 people, but that is also the most difficult setting imo - it's easiest with 4 people. It is a great game, I think it belongs in any serious board gamer's collection. It...

Oh, don't get me wrong, I love everything TMB =) However, I just feel that if you didn't go all-in, and had to rank what to get after the inital TMB base box, I would put Undertow as low priority - just for me personally. Again, I just ordered: 40 days of daelor Age of Tyranny Ghillie Tink...

@Hateyou amd @Hatorade have a lot more experience with this game than me, but I will give you a little insight as someone who has only recently been playing. I think I got the base game....2 months ago? Although I love the game and I have backed the latest KS, I understand there will always be...

I kind of agree with you on your first point. Each encounter card is kind of a choose-your-own-adventure where you either selection option A or B, but since the cards are randomized, the story element takes a hit because their is no cohesion or over-arching plot. Also, once you kill the boss...

@Hateyou Do you also have One Deck Dungeon? If so, how would you compare the two?

Splice and Dice started this morning! I didn't realize it is basically impossible to pledge the Strategist level. I was on when it went live and the spots filled in less than 5 seconds I would guess. The pledge levels are a little strange also, like it's good if you have everything, or if you...

Played the hell out of Too Many Bones over the long weekend, we all had a lot of fun. I can't wait until the KS to get more of it. I think what makes the game stand out is just the visual appeal of the whole thing, and also something satisfying about stacking chips and using them as a visual...

Sweet! My game arrives tomorrow, so I'll be playing it this weekend for the first time. I'm really hoping my gf and gaming group likes it, but from everything I've read I really think they will. This will be good timing since I'll be able to get in like 2 weeks worth of TMB gaming to decide...

@Hatorade and @Hateyou thank you both for all your advice. I'm think I'm gonna just get the base game (+premium health chips) and gauge how much my gf and group will like to play it and go from there. I'm guessing I can buy the expansions minus the base game when the KS starts up. Interesting...

@Hatorade Ok that sounds more encouraging. I didn't realize characters had star ratings based on difficulty, that's a nice feature, I wish GH had something similar. You advised against my gf playing the bard, mech, or berserker for first character.....how many gearlocs come in the core box...

Need some advice on Too Many Bones. It seems like a game I would really enjoy, and I trust @Hateyou 's recommendation. My dilemma is with my play group, which consists of my gf and other friends. We play once a week on average. My partner and I could play more frequently, but we like larger...

You have to unlock SSF first. When you start on PS4 your only choices are league or standard, HC or not. Honestly, on PS4 this game plays like SSF in every mode. I'm not sure what difference playing SSF would bring. There is zero chat spam like there is on PC. PoE on console is like the...

I guess I'm a special kid then lol. League play makes sense on PC, because trading is relatively benign. As far as I can tell it's a complete PITA on the PS4. When I was playing this game more regularly on the PC, I would restart with each league like a good soldier, power level, trade...

Also, do you have a recommendation for a primer? Is there like a specific primer for miniatures? Plastic ones? Is spray the way to go?

Wow, some serious mad skills in here. Props to you guys. @Hateyou , I didn't check FoH over the weekend, so I didn't see your recommendations in time. I ended up buying a starter miniature paint set: and brushes: I hope those are decent. They arrived yesterday! It did not come with...

Thanks for the links guys, getting excited to try it out. I don't know diddly squat so even something like priming is new to me. The paints listed in the GH video seem super specific....is there a best place to order them from? Or can you find them even at your local arts/crafts stores like...

Yeah I've never played any game with minis before Gloomhaven. and Gloomhaven isn't even a mini game. But since I've been spending time on Reddit/BGG I've seen some of the neat paint jobs people have been doing on the GH minis, so I am tempted. I looked into getting my minis painted by someone...

So I just found out about Tainted Grail, mainly because of my Gloomhaven addiction, decided to check on this board and of course you guys already knew about it lol. Put in my pledge today. I did similar to Tarrant, I got the Core in Sundrop, which I assume means the minis are painted in the...
