I use a plain old off the shelf wood glue from Home Depot for all my organizer gluing, and haven't had any issues. I can get you the exact brand when I get home, if you like.

Is it in the style of the Broken Token inserts, made of thin laser cut wood? If so, my experience is that white glue/wood glue is fine for that. The design of the insert keeps it together well, and the glue just serves to stop the little bit of slop and wiggle.

lol that guy in the thread I'm arguing against owns So far: - Claimed I was a troll (I think?) - Claims that time != improvement - Responds only with "but my friend hated it" and "it's not fun/it's boring" arguments Fishing has never been so easy.

Also apparently fighting games have a low barrier to entry, who knew. I guess when you define the barrier as "being able to press buttons".

Tekepo- since you're the main person that's been praising The Expanse, how've you found the balance? I've got it on the table once, but it seemed pretty solid with maybe a ten point difference between first and third places. The fourth place player went dumb and got pretty bad tunnel vision at the mid/end game that kept him out of the bonus scoring bands. Part of me wants to try running a PBF of the game, but man I'm still having flashbacks of modding Dark Moon.

The weirdest theme for a game is Guts Of Glory, in which players try to eat more rubber tires, radioactive waste, and spiders than their opponent. The game features upgrades like extra teeth, and heavily involves a regurgitating into other people's mouths mechanic.

Thanks for all the info on the glue. It is just cut small wood pieces so I think I'll be ok with a clear glue.

Hello all, I need help remembering the name of a game. It's on a simple 4x4 grid and each of the 2 players get a set of pieces. The pieces are cut slightly differently, like some have holes, some can have one or two notches, etc. The goal is the line up pieces of the same cut similar to tick tack toe.

There's only two types of pieces there though; each player has one capstone and a number of other pieces that are all the same. The non-capstone pieces can be played either as a wall or as a road, and the goal is to connect one side of the board to its opposite side via road pieces.

Actually come to think of it, cards against humanity gets the racism through without relying on that particular slur. I suppose it's possible for the game to be less racist than CaH. That's a pretty low bar to clear.

Doesn't Harry Potter as a franchise ignore the whole elf slavery thing for as long as possible? Also, isn't "mudblood" an actual archaic slur for Jewish people, or am I mixing it up with other similar slurs?

jmzero posted:Have now played all the base Nemeses in Aeon's End. Overall, it's a solid game and we had fun with it - but we won't be playing the base box more. I feel like the player characters could have used some more variety, and that a couple of the bosses were pretty dumb (we played Crooked Mask last, and his gimmick of giving you garbage made for a slog).

It doesn't really matter if it is or not, the wizards in Harry Potter are all explicitly racist. Even the ones who don't openly hold non-wizards in contempt or hatred have a "white man's burden" thing going on.

Got to play a 2p learning game of ROOT last night. Open card hands, Cats vs Birds, finished in just under 2 hours. I think it’s good! I played as the Eyrie, which has a gimmick of slowly building up a set of actions that must be performed or you “collapse” and lose victory points. Because of this I was pushed to constantly expand or else lose out on my action economy. The host tried out the Marquis de Cat, which has a Roman Empire feel to them. He started the game with one soldier on every space, and he chose to fall back and build infrastructure before launching some offensives. Despite the different scoring mechanics the game felt neck and neck up to the lasted turn (where I made a bet on the dice and lost ). Despite that I could tell the game needed three players to be considered balanced, since I could barely make a dent in the Cat’s infrastructure. I look forward to trying it again now that we’ve got a better understanding of the rules.
