Concordia is such an incredible game. It’s one of the few that really scales well up to five players, too.

No particular order:
Terraforming Mars
Concordia
Clans of Caledonia
Keyflower
Ra
Innovation
Valley of the Kings
Gloomhaven
Brass
Castles of Burgundy

The best.

The mashup I didn’t know I needed.

We sang it in school! In Michigan!

I was there for that one!

That’s most of what’s keeping me out of 40k. 50 intercessors is what, 800 points? That just feels silly.

“Dogs know it!” Is constantly in my head. Love Brain Candy.

Gen Con!

Easy.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy/team.

If you liked those, you’d probably like House of the Scorpion. I used to teach it a while back.

Spirit animal.

Are we still doing this? Ugh.

For now.

Oh that makes sense. We’re cooked.

What in the hell is “medical tyranny” in schools?

Here’s a good model for responding to this dipshit’s letters:
