Boards Alive

Mind you, I don't think they'd appreciate me alternating between cursing the baseball gods and crying in a fetal position over all the ways the Jays could have won
It's probably good television, though

I mean, I'm available!
And for a very reasonable fee, haha

I'm obviously not in the know enough to get Quinten's joke

The game box covers of Unmatched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Unmatched Lee Vs Ali

Oh heck yeah! The Turtles joining the Unmatched world is absolutely fantastic
I still have the original Bruce Lee set, but happy to see the reissue and Ali to throw punches

But the text on the card is GARGOYLES all caps, I think
And the picture is of a gargoyle statue on the side of a building

Has this person ever heard of The Radio?
Like if you just want random songs, why not let them be curated by a pro?

We yelled back and forth about if Gargoyles are alive or not.
We had to bring in other people to help solve the issue (which isn't actually solved still)

Things in Rings in the table

I taught Things in Rings by @allplay.bsky.social
Everyone loved it!
So many arguments after the round

Oh! That DOES sound cool.
I think I will pick it up for the school

I love when they make comments like, "Oh, yeah sure we're worth multiple billions of dollars, but we're super cash poor, so we can't invest back into the players..."
It's like these billionaires don't know what a bank is?

I ran the fanciest of coffee shops out of my fast food restaurant last night in a 5p game of Food Chain Magnate
I was charging $20 per coffee and leeching off of the great work of the rest of the players to pull in a big win.
Love this game and how each play can feel quite different.

We have this exact same brand in Canada
But obviously because of Commonwealth reasons haha

Just finished the last chapter of the first one last week
Great game!
Excited to try the next one

Keith, like... What?
Why does a team that has struggled to get impact pitching trade away their best internal chance at impact pitching for one year of a middling outfielder?
As a Jays fan I'll take the easier opponent, but... Huh?

What's wrong with the word Sottly?
😋

Resafa on the table at four players

We tried out Resafa for the first time last night
We're big Suchi fans in our group so we knew we'd like it
Lots going on and we all tried different strategies
It was a solid euro that we want to explore again

Just call me when the deals are done
I hated seeing all the clickbait headlines about who's interested in whom
Yeah, man they all check in on everyone

I mean, they fired Popkins and he seemed to have a pretty massive impact on the Jays
So good luck to whoever they just fired again...

Our work group just finished the last chapter of this one yesterday
It has such a good mix of challenges in the later chapters that make this one a huge win if you want a co-op trick taking game

Yup! Just buy the games you want and probably for a great price because Steam sales are awesome

I'm so intrigued by it
I never really bought into PC gaming because I hated worrying about if the game would work on it
But with a designated console style PC box, I think I can buy in that way

Trickerion taking up most of the screen because it's such a table hog of a game

After our discussion of the best games of 2015 on the latest episode, Scott had us dive into Trickerion last night
It was long and I was quite tired by the end of it but it was still awesome

And?!
Delicious?
Terrible?
Both because obviously it's both?

I will need an update if you make this happen

Yeah I actually haven't played any Paverson Games stuff and haven't approached them for review games, but their games look very interesting

I've been intrigued by this one for a while
Love the unique theme
Need to give it a try

Chapter 16 scenario card from the Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Rings Card Games plus some other cards from the game on a table

Well, Chapter 16 of The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Rings Card Game is pretty tough
You have to thread a tight needle of trick taking to make it work
We were so close, but will need to continue at lunch tomorrow
