    Soccer 2016-2017

    I'm pretty relieved to get that win. Swansea played really well in the first half and don't deserve to be where they are in the table. Liverpool's 2nd half was far better though I still wasn't confident even after the 2nd goal went in. Also, not sure Karius is much of an upgrade over Mignolet...

    The Writing Thread - Post Shit You've Written (And Criticize What's Posted)

    Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the late reply. Kinda forgot about it in the shift from the old board! I'd rather not say specifically what my intent for that particular story was, but I did try to leave enough clues for people to piece it together. Also, I just included another story in...

    Pitch

    I enjoyed it. Does seem more like a movie since I'm not sure how much further they can go with the premise but so far I liked the characters enough to find them interesting and will keep watching.

    Designated Survivor

    Kiefer Sutherland's new show. Interesting premise, though is sounds like it should be a comedy or sitcom rather than a drama. Feels like it will follow the 24 path, hunting down the terrorists etc, without the time gimmick.

    Awesome result and a great all round performance. Hopefully we can carry it into the next few fixtures which are all winnable

    Star Trek Ascendency

    This game looks really cool, like a 4x set within the Star Trek universe. Only issue I have is that it's only 3 players at launch which limits it a lot imo. It also appears to be quite pricey. But definitely something I'd love to play sometime.

    Patchwork is pretty good. Lanterns isn't too bad. Castle of Mad King Ludwig is a bit a of step up but works well for 2 to 4. I quite like Viticulture with 2 players also.

    Arsenal deserved to lead and if they'd hung on until half time it might be a whole different game. Second half is a bit of a nightmare for you

    I love Scythe, actually made my own copy when it went on kickstarter from their PnP files. I dislike the instant finish though which feels just a little too sudden but other than that, great game. Just picked up Euphoria tonight, made by the same company. Dystopian worker placement game.

    I have a feeling we might regret selling Ibe. 15m is a decent price for a young player who still needs some development, but seems like he'd be great to have in the squad.

    Euro 2016

    I think groups of 5 would work well in the Euro's and World up, with top 2 progressing. Gives smaller countries more experience by playing 4 games without being too taxing.

    Guessing there's still nearly no interest in this, but one of the DLCs, Betrayal is available for free on all platforms. Makes me glad I just bought the base games. I am enjoying seeing new maps and stuff though.

    New patch came out this week, anyone tried it yet? Might give it another spin. Doubt it's fixed any of the fundamental issues I have with the game but hopefully it's moving in the right direction. notes:

    Why didn't our (liverpool) owner's just buy southhampton as well and merge the teams? Surely it would have been cheaper.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I assumed the letter was to Littlefinger. She already sent Brienne to ask for help from the Blackfish, so it's redundant to sent a raven as well.

    Stellaris

    I must admit I'm actually a little disappointed with it. Mostly it's because I was expecting EU4 in space, where as it's really just another 4x game with elements from EU4, though it probably borrows more from CK but I haven't played that much. It's still a great game if you're looking at it...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Saw it earlier today, and really enjoyed it. Don't think I'd call it the best comic book movie ever. For me, Avengers, GotG and Winter Soldier from the MCU are still better, along with the Dark Knight and Deadpool.

    Kindgom Death does look like a great game but not sure it's the best option for getting into board games again. I'd recommend Pandemic ( or Pandemic Legacy), Ticket to Ride, or Catan. They're great introductions which can easily be taught to other people. If you enjoy them, you'll quickly move...
