I always wonder when they start talking about how someone, like Caleb, is strong and will help with the challenges, no one points out that he's been on the losing end of three challenges in a row. Can't help but think he's just shit at the game.
Looks like there's a kickstarter for the reprint coming in April for anyone who's missed out. (will be an addon for the founders of gloomhaven kickstart but you can opt to just order gloomhaven.)
Reprint confirmed. | Gloomhaven | BoardGameGeek
Can't recommend the game enough. No doubt I'll burn...
Yep, codenames is definitely one you want to adjust and house rule to make it smoother for the players you have.
Also, beware of Codenames: Deep Undercover. While the idea of an adults version with lots of innuendos is pretty cool, the result is a game where so many of the words are closely...
Champions of Midgard isn't too bad but feels like a watered down version of Stone Age or Lords of Waterdeep. Just lacks that little bit more depth to it.
I much prefer Raiders of the North Sea, another viking worker placement game, but with a unique mechanic that makes it stand out...
Yep, looks awesome. Can't wait to play it. I ended up playing through PL twice since I got it as birthday present. Was still great experience though I had to step back and not offer any advice on what the rest the group should do since it was there first time.
(trailer is from the kickstarter but it's already been produced, with a 2nd printing due sometime this year)
Finally got to bust this out and play it properly on the weekend and really love it so far. It had sat on my desk unboxed for over a week as I worked out how to organise it and play...
We're going a game every fortnight, which helps prevent it turning into a chore or making it tedious for some of the players. 3 of us are fighting for the top, always competing for winning each game, while 2 have dropped off. Not sure how they'll be able to catch up.
Still enjoying the game but...
Forgot to answer this, sorry. I think everyones approach will be different and not necessarily be useful for other people, not to mention how much they evolve through the process. That said, I found the snowflake method to be a good place to start since its methodical approach suits my mindset ...
would love to see Leicester win the champions league while at the same time being relegated. Just for the lols, don't have anything against them and was pretty happy to see them win last season.
My Gloomhaven just arrived and I can't wait to dive into it.
Debating if its worth it's on threat since there's so much spoilery stuff in legacy / campaign games you can't discuss them too much.
Did you manage to get your first game done?
Played Agricola a few times and don't mind it but never super eager to play it.
Looking forward to The Colonists though, which looks similar but way cooler, imo:

I'm overstating how slow it was because the last time I played we had a particular AP prone player who took longer than the other 4 of us combined, before going broke, sacking half his staff and rage quitting around mid game! It's still a flaw of the game and I wish it could flow better but it's...
Nah, not bored yet but had to start work! Thanks heaps for the levels and help. Got a nice kick start and up to doing the last chapter thingy for the season. slowly getting the hang of crusader too.
Codenames is good though more of a party game. Pandemic would work but don't alpha game it. Maybe viticulture, would probably be pushing into too advanced but people might appreciate the theme
Got to try this last night be Rogue One. Really enjoyed it, nice quick game that still has decent depth and strategy. Probably won't pick it up though since it's still cardboard crack.
Just saw it. Really like. Has its flaws but overall a great film. As someone who wanted force awakens to be good and was disappointed, this lived up to expectations
I have. Great little 4x style of game. Generally takes 2 hours, regardless of player count but does depend on the players. It's not a war game or even area control even though it looks like one. It's more about building up an engine to gain money and achieve mini goals. Great production value...
Just finished up Meeplecon, 3 day gaming convention here in Melbourne. Had an absolute blast! stayed up way too late every night and felt really exhausted by the end but no regrets whatsoever! I strongly encourage anyone to jump into one, even if only for a day, since it's so much fun.
Got to...
