I played XCOM for the first time last night and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I was really skeptical about the app side of it, and still not sure if I like it, but the game experience itself was pretty awesome. Lots of intense moments, obviously during the timed phase, but also during...

Yep, it's the promo pack for ordering directly from them. Shits me that it wasn't a realistic option for me since I hear it's a pretty good character to have. Hopefully it's made available for sale separately at some point.

Congrats, and happy birthday! Hoping mine arrives today since I've got a mini game con on the weekend that might be a great chance to try it out.

Such a dodgy penalty. Would have been the worst way to have gone out. Thankfully we got a couple of fantastic goals. Bolton were really under siege at the end there. Whole team in the box while liverpool passed it around and took shots.

Do you get a refund if you don't end up becoming a physician or medical scientist?

Enjoying it so far after the usual teething problems adjusting to a new BF. Might just be the novelty of new maps, modes and weapons, so it remains to be seen how much longevity it has. The UI feels a lot clunkier though. Unless I'm missing something, there's no way to buy stuff during round...

Add an updated drivers / team list to the first post!

Where the fuck is she travelling from that it's going to cost 3k for for a 3 day trip to Boston? Is that seriously the cheapest travelling option?

wait, what?

Was the laces out on the last Seahawk throw?

I guess the other thing to remember is that while the game might be cheap, the associated costs might push it up quite a bit as well. Sleeving the cards isn't overly expensive, but adds a little more. If you like to make your own inserts, that a little more as well. And if you want to paint the...

Woo hoo! Australia is the best Asians in the world!!

I think I prefer that he's working for Ras. Definitely more potential than if he stayed as a pretty boy love interest for Thea. That's not to say it will end up as good, but at least will be better.

Yeah fair enough. I'm probably going to wish I did that, since I stretched my budget to get it. Hopefully nothing else interesting comes out this year...

Give in to the dark side...

Is Book 3 of this coming out this year? Hopefully it's more like Book 1, but have my doubts 8(

Star Wars Imperial Assault Board Game | CoolStuffInc.com online retailer of board games, mtg and many other collectible card games on sale atm, so might be worth picking up at that price, even if you don't get to play as much as you'd like.

Maybe a simple app might be easiest?

I think it's less about enjoying it and more that I don't really have a regular group to progress through the campaign with. I've only played descent a couple of times, for the same reason, but have enjoyed that for the most part. Hopefully if I have my own copy of SWIA, I'll find people...

Saw a good price for star wars imperial assault with free delivery and had to bite. Probably going to end up regretting it :-(

Because it deserves its own thread! I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Never thought I'd find jazz drumming so fascinating, though it's more about the characters than the topic. Great performances all round.

Yikes! So glad I did start mocking ManU after their draw. Then again, I think both teams ended up ahead since they weren't knocked out!

Surely African American Arrow would be a little more politically correct?!

It still amazes me how great this show has turned out.

Pretty good movie. Absolutely brilliant performance, but seems like the movie is more about Jane than stephen. Not surprising since it's based on her memoir but I'm not overly interested in her struggles, even though it's a pretty shitty situation for her to be in.

Pretty meh year imo. Some good films but nothing really stands out as something I'm going to remember in a couple of years time. Yet to see Birdman though, so maybe that will change my mind. Lego movie I'll probably remember for a while.

Played Spyfall for the first time. Really great game. Similar to resistance, but a lot more light hearted and far more accessible I think. Great game for friends and family that might not be gamers. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/166384/spyfall

online played it online via vassel. It's a good wargame combined with diplomacy but you have to like that sort of thing. The layout of the map tends to favour some of the houses I think. At least, if you don't watch them early, they'll storm hard late on. Need to dust it off again since I liked...

How is everyone enjoying the Asian Cup so far?!

Smallworld is a great little game. Seems to scale well between it's number of players too. So many 2-5 games are a waste of time with 2 players or even 3.

finally got my copy of Dead of Winter! Now to try and get a game organised...

because it didn't happen to white people?

The simplified simulation was pretty funny.

I enjoyed it. Yeah, the misogyny is laid on thick, but who didn't expect that going in? Anyone else think Daniel's grandson is going to be a new york cop?

what's irrational about being terrified of something that could swallow you?

Nope, haven't played zombie 15, but it does sound familiar. Either would probably suffice.

I playedEscape: Zombie City | Board Game | BoardGameGeekrecently which is a good little coop zombie game. It's real time though, which is an interesting mechanic that you'll either love or hate. Also quite short since you need to escape within 15 min or you lose!

The 2 day turn around curse strikes again! Seriously though, there's no excuse for coughing up a 2 goal lead at home to Leicester. I'm starting to wish soccer had the american system, where we could hire someone like Tony Pulis as our defensive coordinator since, Rodgers clearly doesn't have a...

deck builders like Dominion or Ascension might be the way to go.

Anyone tried Star Wars Imperial Assault? Looks really cool, and I'd love to pick it up, but don't really have the group to play through the campaign of it. Still only played 1 game of descent!
