#boardgame folk: how do you feel about opaqueness - where the outcome of your decisions may not be felt for a long time?
The opening #18xx auctions can be opaque as hell - particularly during early plays. Almost every decision in my own Emu Bay prototype doesn't seem to hit for a while.
Teaching my wife #ArkhamHorrorLCG using the first scenario of The Night of the Zealot. I'm hoping she will enjoy it enough to play through The Forgotten Age next
Yesterday was my first play of the For The People #boardgame in absolute yonks. Since before I have regularly been tracking my plays of #boardgames back in 2007.
The action took place mostly in the east. The central and western theaters soon became a deadlock. Lee getting killed, as a subordinate general, and Grant taking over the Army of the Potomac really opened up the game in the east.
Good game with clever moves and mistakes on both sides.
Arkham Horror LCG is just so good! I have three more scenarios in #TheForgottenAge campaign and it has just gotten really exciting again. There was a little bit of a lull in the middle scenarios but "The City of Archives" is about to ramp up the #Lovecraftian mythos once again.
I am definitely thinking of grabbing another campaign in the coming months but not sure if I should do #Carcosa or the newest one, "The Feast of Hemlock Vale."

Quick game of #7Wonders Architects with Medals expansion. Love the fact that this game is indeed "quick" - my wife & I completed in 25 min after getting the kids to bed. And I lost by just 2 points! 😥
We played through Act I of a scenario of the #SlayTheSpire#BoardGame. It's a faithful adaptation of the digital game, and plays surprisingly well!
Corri played the Ironclad while I played the Silent. We downed the Act I boss, Hexaghost for us, just as the Ironclad was about to succumb.
My only complaint would be the instructions, which rely a bit too much on knowledge from the digital game. And as players who don't usually sleeve cards, a big "You MUST sleeve" warning would've helped.
I'm in a hotel for one night for work and packed a few solo games. I haven't played TM:AE in a while so I decided to play it first. Wow, I forgot how brutal it can be. I was nowhere near completely terraforming Mars before the rounds ended.
Ich habe mal wieder etwas Interessantes im Karton eines alten Brettspiels gefunde: einen Spielekatalog. Das Spannende: Kein bekannter Verlag, sondern ein kleiner aus Hamburg, eine Recherche war eher nicht erfolgreich, diesen kleinen Verlag gibt es offenbar nicht mehr.
1997 haben ich mit Freunden Silvester in Paris verbracht. Damals startete noch die (damalige) Rally Paris-Dakar am Neujahrsmorgen unter dem Eiffelturm. Ich möchte anmerken, dass das verdammt cool war, die Nacht durchfeiern und dann zum Eiffelturm. 🍾
Und ja, jetzt gibt es wieder etwas zu Lächeln: Natürlich hatte auch die Rally Paris-Dakar ein Brettspiel von MB Spiele, Mit Autos und sogar Hubschrauber. 😂
The family played #TicketToRide#SanFrancisco for the first time yesterday, and of course, the 11 YO and 8 YO destroyed Lindsey and I. Oh well, maybe next time lol.
If you're at Gaming Hoopla 2024 you might pass by a table of friendly volunteers teaching people how to play #Netrunner! Stop, say hi, and run some nets with them!
And yes, those 2-player mats will be making a comeback!
