Fat Samurai posted:Well, apparently when someone says that they are selling the base box they mean they are literally selling the box. Empty. What's the point of this? Impressing my friends with my taste in boardgames? Probably got the anniversary edition box with the expansions and extras. Pretty sure that was a tier.

I've only rage quit once I think it was called neptun or something like that it was supposed to be an hour long but after two we we're only half way through it. No one was enjoying it and my ride back home was planning to leave.

Magnetic North posted:Just for the record: I actually have not played DoW and I agree with the thread hivemind's objections to it, so I probably never will. I'm just familiar with the rules thanks to Table Top and Watch It Played. My objection is more questioning if we really need to sass a rando who is just asking a question about a very popular game. Yes because the game is bad and he shouldn't play it.

In the last 6 months I've played basically every game I own at least once with the excepting of two player games and crap I'm trying to get rid of. And so today I'm off to my board game club tonight with none of my games for once.

QnoisX posted:So I got my copy of Dungeon Lords Happy Anniversary. There are only 4 of those plastic token containers inside. The images showing how to arrange the bits on their website show them using 7 containers. Did they leave some out or is that normal? If it's normal is there a way to order extras? Also not sure where to put the 4 small round tokens with clown faces or the 5 gear tokens with rounded centers. Either way, going to take me a while to get all of these stickers applied. The extra 3 were kickstarter bonuses

taser rates posted:For such a complex game, it's pretty straightforward in flow, it's quite Euro-ish in that way, and the manual is clearer than most Eurogames out there. The only part that could have been better in the manual is the difference between dominating a hex (ie having the highest product of elements and adaptations for a given hex) and having the most species on a hex, which are both important for the Dominance action. Also, keep in mind that the single biggest source of points is going to be the end-game scoring, between the ice age dominance card, the last Survival scoring, and the final phase where each hex is scored separately. with regard to this Dominant Species is pretty much at the top of the list of games I need to play, along with Mage Knight.

Lichtenstein posted:On one hand, this is getting too much for my continued belief in existence of Rutibex, and on the other this is far too elaborate for a simple troll/gimmick. Rutibex is either a CIA cell or an ingenious FFG shill paid to silence the critics of its best-seller. Talisman as rutibex plays it is a different from talisman as sold as relic is from talisman

Played game of thrones tonight with the dance with dragons expansion. I was Tyrell so I was a target pretty much the entire game so I decided to hell with it and went hyper aggressive ended cycling my cards 3 times the game ended on the final round with me controlling 4 castles all three tokens and finishing third. Greyjoy won with stark just behind and the rest 2 castles behind me.

I taught Terra mystica to a guy who was relatively new to board games a few weeks ago he obviously didn't do well but this last week he asked me to bring it again, so its obviously not as off putting to new gamers as people are making out.

Played a couple of solo games of mage knight now. My first proper solo conquest game went kinda well didn't manage to fully defeat the last city, thinking about it I maybe should have kept the horn of wrath rather than burning it to take the first city.

A game I played with 6 a few months back had people sitting at 9 coins and using the Ambassador to stall since if the couped the one red team member it was certain they would be dead soon after.
