I've always heard the euro boardgames are usually less about direct pvp competition and are either coop or base/deck building without direct interaction between players.

Migration experts say the UK cannot end freedom of movement from the EU on Brexit day because it has no system to work out who is legally in the country. Sorry experts, wrong again. I think you'll find the Home Office has a tried & tested system for dealing with immigration. It's called: Racism.

Borrovan posted:Agricola's great but it's kinda just simple enough that it's possible to think a bunch of turns ahead & compute everyone's moves, which stresses me out - imo Puerto Rico is a superior game, it's got the same basic mechanic but "bigger" & there's so many balls in play that you've pretty much got to go by pure intuition, rather than a bunch of involved thinking that gets in the way of drinking & chatting poo poo If your plan to replace Agricola involves slavery, you should think again. The real Agricola replacement is Caverna, which is exactly the same game except with dwarves and a lot more forgiving. Mrs Boat will still beat her husband every time I expect, but it'll be 30m/player of relaxed axe forging instead of 30m/player of slamming your testicles in a desk drawer.

Miftan posted:I've always heard the euro boardgames are usually less about direct pvp competition and are either coop or base/deck building without direct interaction between players. There's massive variation. Many eurogames have direct interaction, many are coop or multiplayer soiltaire (i.e. everyone is playing everyone else, but with minim direct interaction betyween players, except maybe in all drawing from the same spread of cards/tiles/action options). The Euro vs American design differential is much more in how and where randomness and flavour are added. Eurogames are generally low-to-no randomness, and what randomness there is is usually applied before decisionmaking - i.e. you use randomness to determine what options you have, but not to determine how well your choices work. And the flavour is usually subordinate to the mechanics and balance choices, i.e. if something needs to do this because theme, but balance needs it to do that to not be overpowered, it'll do that not this. American games are usually the inverse, they are much mroe story/theme driven, and tend to have more randomness, and randomness that defines how well the strategy works after it's implemented. So, if the boss of your dungeon crawl game needs to be super powerful because he's a werewolf or whatever, he will be, because he should be. And whather you defeat him will usually involve deciding what you're doing then flipping a card or rolling a die to see how well you do. But honestly the distinction is becoming a lot blurrier and less useful these days than it used to be..

No, it's not Scotland's top selling soft drink by virtue of irony, good grief man. People like it despite it basically being sugar poured into a mix of water & orange food colouring. Or because of that. I tried it after they changed the recipe and didn't love it but went 6 months without buying any and then tried it again and couldn't even remember what it used to taste like.

Pochoclo posted:A literal demon from hell would at least not pretend to be otherwise So there are 2 broad categories of Boardgames, Eurogames and Ameritrash. Euro games are typified by no player elimination, come back mechanics so players who are losing get advantages, and less randomness. Ameritrash games are lol-random, players get eliminated, and winning means you win more. Think Monopoly, when you're winning you have more money than everyone else so it's easier for you keep winning. Complexity is fairly even across them, just because you've made a trash game of rolling dice doesn't mean you don't have a 20 page rulebook. Whilst king of Eurogames, Powergrid, has a 4 or 5 pages max.

Remember the Tory staffer who was asking questions on QT in Elgin but introduced as an ordinary member of the public? She's now been suspended for tweeting horrible poo poo about Sturgeon's miscarriage. Surprisingly enough, the BBC even point out that she was on QT in the article.

Aramoro posted:So there are 2 broad categories of Boardgames, Eurogames and Ameritrash. This is a pretty dated analysis. Board games have come a long way in the last couple of decades. In modern parlance a Euro game is theme-light, interaction-light, low-randomness and involves moving a lot of tokens around to represent production chains and/or trade routes. They're a subset of engine-builders.
