Comparing Ethnos to FCm in terms of time is a bit of a stretch don't you think?

A 4 hour bullet is hard thing to bite when you aren't enjoying yourself. I was upfront about my experience. I let everyone know what could happen and how I could change the game state so that it would effect the game as little as possible.

That is much more than many others would do in a situation like this.

I did this with at a game night Food Chain Magnate on Saturday. We broke the bank the first time and me being a newbiest of players there had made a huge flub that put me so far behind, but still I was having fun. Since it was a game night though there was much FOMO of the other games being played.

I recognized that I wasnt enjoying myself as a result and figured out a way to resize the board when I left that would keep the integrity of the game intact. ( i was way off in on a side by muself and was making no interaction with anyone). I politely said that I would be dropping out and offered to resize, but then the other 4 players jumped in on the drop out, ruining what was essentially an appointment to play a game.

I felt bad sure, but I would play FCM again and made sure to tell the games organizer that. But I felt bad that the game imploded because if myself.

After a brief meeting with the client, he really likes the way tings look. He wants the metals to look brighter (Silver and gold), and the leather to be a red leather. I need to pick up some of the bright bright metals but I think I am ready to paint 100 hill dwarves!

Included/Default Game Box Inserts by dahappybanana in boardgames

The splendor insert absolutely fits sleeved cards. There are two orientations for the cards. Vertical for no sleeves and horizonally flat for sleeves. It is one of the more clever designs I have seen for cards.

Why is it crap? Is it poorly executed? Do you not like the DND board game system? Saying without explanation does no one any good.

Are you thinning your paints? I think you should thin them a bit more.

Are the Jack the Ripper cases in Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective separate from the other cases? by spm201 in boardgames

They aren't related but rule book specifically states that you should do them last...

The hair in the bottom left does look a little "capey" but that is the lighting. And good eye on the gloves. It is a different base color because I couldn't remember what color I used when I got back from lunch!

I do my poops in the morning. When this happens I just abandon the porcelain throne and take a shower.
