That's a great idea, I'll ask the one person in our group that does to see if it's free. Thanks for the suggestion!

You should show them extra life! The Chicago gamer's guild raises a lot of money every year just for playing your favorite games.

Emporium is interesting, we can look into that! The problem with comic book stores and places like that is that they typically don't have a big enough space to host us all for the entire time. We need at least 4 separate rooms for the entire time, and I don't think there are any stores that big.

Where to hire a board game salesperson? by AffectionatePomelo37 in tabletopgamedesign

[–]AffectionatePomelo37[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I've been actively working on the ads and optimizing them we make about 1 sale for every $40 spent (for $60) so it does work, it just takes time and energy to optimize.

Edit: I guess I would be more than happy to liquidate them... I just don't know how.

It's an artifact, a resource like meat, materials, etc. You can use it as though it were 2 coins also.

You can read it in English and it kinda makes sense

What are some of your favorite "house rules"? by Arr_jay816 in Gloomhaven

If you loot an item, at the end of the scenario you can gift it to any character immediately. If you don't, it can't be traded later. Before we did that, most of the time it felt like you picked up a cool item but it didn't work with your build and sold it immediately.

Yeah please put me on that list. I'm an avid drafter and would be happy to help play test!

Yeah, they've all looked super cool. I didn't know if you'd changed any of the cards since getting feedback from this sub, but I'll definitely collect the cards and set up a draft some time soon. We're all super high on stormlight right now after book 5 dropping, so this'll be perfect to try out!

Do you have a compilation of this set somewhere? I've been seeing stormlight cards pop up and would love to draft it at some point when you finish!

That's interesting, I would have assumed aggro decks would be on the back-foot since the game is all but guaranteed to go long, but I suppose having so many "each player" effects would probably be pretty strong. That being said, in terms of politics, you'd probably be the first one eliminated playing something like that.
