    I used the superfluous catan expansion box to house my print and play version of spyfall. It seems appropriate for it to be hiding out in a different game.

    Vikings

    Starts tonight! Easily one of my favourite shows. I do wish it was on a channel that allowed a bit more of the blood and guts the Vikings were famous for, but the History Channel has done a great job with it so far.

    From what I hear, it involves ripping cards up. Obviously you don't have to do that. But there are also stickers you place on the board, not sure how hard they are to remove while keeping them intact. And packets of cards that are broken open at various point. I guess if you're careful and...

    I pretty much had the same reservations and from what I've gathered it's pretty much as you're thinking. You're better off playing with the same regular group of people. People can sub in and out if need be, but that's not really optimal. There does appear to be an end around 15 games I...

    I think it's pretty harsh calling them moochers! I know around here, in my various groups, there's quite a few people who just like to buy the games and need the extra bodies to actually play them. Even on the small ones I've bought, I want people to play them with so I get to experience them.

    Nice coincidence that video for Argent was just released. I'm a fan of the Watch It Played channel for providing clear instructions on how to play the games rather than reviewing them. Handy to pass on to new people you want to introduce a game to so they have a basic understanding of how to...

    E-Shop DCS having a sale on all their stuff, 70% off. They are probably the best simulators out atm. The base world is free, but then you buy the modules to plug into it, depending which planes / choppers/ tanks you want to fly. Flaming Cliffs looks like particularly good value since it...

    Here's my storage so far. The pink stuff is no slip padding, which I found for $2 and adds some nice cushioning to each of the apartments. Unfortunately it's just think enough that the Nexu won't fit with it, and even the Wookie is a tight squeeze. When all packed up, with the rules and...

    Even that would stretch my budget a little since I don't plan to make any more inserts in the forseeable future. Between Dead of Winter and Star Wars, and all the associated stuff I've chosen to buy for them on top, I've pretty much blown my board game budget for the year! I will say that...

    Better Call Saul

    I'm generally pretty against prequels since 95% of the time they turn out terrible. This has started well though and I'm looking forward to watching more. I also thinks it has the potential to be better than Breaking Bad. BB had some great, absolutely brilliant episodes and story arcs, but it...

    Cheers! Though that one might not be suitable for me. I doubt my ability to cut accurately to use plans (would love a tool like Vaclav linked but I've already spent way too much), though I do like the appeal of not having to work out and design something myself. Mostly I'm also a big fan of...

    thankfully a friend picked that one up, so it will be his problem! Also looks like there's a ghostbuster's game coming out. Like all new board games, it's coming via kickstarter! No idea how it plays though. GhostbustersT: The Board Game by Cryptozoic Entertainment Kickstarter

    Soccer 2014 - 2015

    It's good to see our Suarez money signings starting to come good. Don't think Balotelli will ever work out, his style just doesn't fit our, but Markovich, Can, Morena are turning out good. Lallana was probably overpriced but seems handy to have in the squad. As much as I would love to see new...

    Fantastic win, and great to see Super Mario score finally. Hopefully that will increase his value come transfer time! I was watching an NBC stream and I can't beleive anyone can put up with their stupidity? They decided to give Man of the Match to Mario, for his 10 minutes of game time and...

    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.

    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.

    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...

    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...

    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.
