That's hilarious and really close to one of the kids birthdays so preordered a copy and noticed that the membership they offer for $12 saves you $20 in total between the discount on the product and free shipping. Hopefully it saves a bit more when the final Scythe expac comes out because I pulled trigger on that as well.

Final Scythe expansion, Rise of Fenris, is up for preorder. If you're a member there you get $10 off and free shipping.

Any recommendations on good two-player board games? My girl and I have opposite work schedules from friends and family and she needs to get her game night kick in sometimes when it's just the two of us. We do Catan, Ticket To Ride and few others with her family that we both enjoy.

Check out Dice Throne if you want a 1vs1 game.

We just got The Fugitive which is a great little 2 player game

Lost Cities was pretty enjoyable back in the day. Looks like it just got a reprint.

I'm off to bordercon! 4 days of boardgaming bliss. 4 hours out of town so no distractions to interrupt the gaming

Played Now Boarding last night, was a lot of fun.

Now Boarding

Would definitely recommend anyone playing 3-5 player co-op games check it out if you get a chance.

Recently picked up really fun for whole family, plays best with two or 4 players but works with three as well.

Try Battle for Souls. Its a bit crunchy for 2player but lots of fun.

Finally working our way through pandemic legacy s1, pretty interesting, any other with that same general concept of "tear up/throw out" game pieces i.e. one time through and you're done?

Gloomhaven is a legacy style co-op campaign tactical RPG type thinger. You can technically play it forever, but a ton of the content is once-through only. Pandemic S2 is great as well. Risk Legacy started the genre.

Terraforming Mars, after playing with broken token stuff I just can't go back to the flat mats. Being able to lock cubes in place turns this game from fun to near perfect engine builder.

What sort of game is that? The components with BT organizer intrigue my engineer brain, I'm interested solely on what that looks like.

Any recommendations for games for 4-6 people? Or even up to 8? So far we've doing some cataan with up to 6 players (got the expansion for more players), 7 wonders, and Twilight Imperium. I'm always looking for another option or two.
