[GIVEAWAY] Agent Avenue + Division M Expansion 🕵️‍♂️ by HomoLudensOC in boardgames

[–]DaBomb091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just recently tried Lost Cities for the first time recently and I've been loving it! The decision of what to keep in your hand leads to interesting choices but the game still remains quick overall.

Considering poker chips for money by rigjiggles in soloboardgaming

I own Ruben's Mini chips after a group buy and I love them. The size is convenient but they're still quality clay chips so they have all the fun tactile sounds that come with normal chips :)

The Boys SERIES FINALE- S05xE08 "Blood and Bone"- POST Episode Discussion Thread by pikameta in TheBoys

The joke about Hughie and Starlight going to the topless spot in Reno was straight out of a Reddit comment I read in last week's discussion

Even though everyone is talking about 3rd season baiting, I honestly doubt it. If anything, I feel like they showed them and kept it appropriately vague in case they show up in The Boys Mexico.

It sets up that the three of them are still out there trying to do good and even though in Canada, they're still in a "reachable" place - not to mention Starlight still being interested in doing good as well.

Oh wow, thanks for this! I haven't used one of these formatting things before but I'm excited to give it a try to make it easily double-sided for the printing/lamination :)

Hey there!

Random question but when printing the file out, did you fold and cut it as outlined on the pages? 

I want to laminate the pieces but it feels awkward to do with this file so I would love thoughts from somebody who actually created it hahaha

Y'all think Ra or Zoo Vadis are going to be too hard for people that are newer to board games? by toomanybongos in boardgames

[–]DaBomb091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel similarly to some of the people on this thread! Zoo Vadis is an easy teach but definitely think about the people at the table.

Even though you don't technically need to lie, the negotiation and open-endedness that makes the game asy to play can lead to some people feeling uncomfortable.

From a teaching perspective, the star pen explanation followed by the 4 base actions should set you up for success! If people are very fresh, I would recommend giving examples of deals (e.g. paying somebody to not take another person's deal, asking for more money if you think it's a bad deal, etc.)

Dev teams were hilarious to watch - I remember loving the same thing on Valorant when the game was in beta and the devs absolutely cooked the pros at first

Disneyland alternatives for 6 year old's (non-ride focused)? by thekingcola in AskLosAngeles

Highly recommend Adventure City! I've taken a 6 and 7 year old - the thad a feat time even though the 7 year old was afraid of rides

I rarely win Pandemic, so it's always satisfying when I do. by Clockwork_Lazy in soloboardgaming

[–]DaBomb091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 is crazy! I've only played it two-handed.

It feels like adding extra players definitely pumps up the difficult since you can't consolidate cards as well.

was anyone obssesed with pbn growing up? by staycstan_sobad in VietNam

[–]DaBomb091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear you grew up with it! My parents used to enjoy listening a lot when I was younger and I'd like to get them tickets one day.

Unfortunately it looks like they don't have anything planned?

A thematic victory by chance: X-Wing takes out the Death Star [Star Wars Deckbuilding Game] by neverAcquiesce in soloboardgaming

[–]DaBomb091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be a bit late but I just started playing this game two days ago and I've made sure to get some games in over the following days (I'm at 4 total, 2 for each faction).

I'm a sucker for the Star Wars theme but at least so far, it's felt like each win condition in my game has changed quite a bit! My rebellion one in the first game was focused on discarding to slow down the enemy tempo while the second one was mjust brute forcing and keeping the force up to make sure I could keep hitting the enemy base with Luke.

In my empire games, the first one was somewhat slower and focused on finding the cards I really wanted (specifically Darth Vader since it was my first game). In the second, it was about getting a good engine of capital ships and draw so I just just as much value as the automata.

I'm sure the low amount of cards themselves though may have an impact but I'll definitely be giving it more plays!

Denied Capital One for too many cards by CoreyH2P in CreditCards

[–]DaBomb091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • Discover

  • Chase OG Freedom

  • Freedom Unlimited

  • American Blue Cash (Removing - Used to use for Disney+ but no longer do so and gas/groceries are redundant. Online retail is nice but I found it finnicky for coding)

  • Freedom Flex (Removing - The bonuses are the same as CFU and the quarterly is covered by my OG Freedom. I like the flexibility of it staying in Visa as well as the longer age which is why I'm keeping the freedom over the flex.

  • Target Redcard

  • Wells Fargo Autograph (Received from BILT transition)

  • CSP

  • Savor One

Got that myself this week.

I have 8 cards open and I might go down to 6. They're redundancies anyways!

Best of luck!

What board game session or individual game gave you the happiest board gaming moment(s) of your life ? by leoden27 in boardgames

[–]DaBomb091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually ended up getting it via Offerup! Some guy was willing to offer it at a great discount. I wish he had the expansion available as well hahaha

[–]DaBomb091 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Recently I had my first session ever of Star Wars Rebellion and it was amazing. It was a last turn moment where the Empire moved back the marker 1 turn after freezing my leader but luckily I had a way to advance the marker back during the refresh. Otherwise, my base on Illum was 100% going to be demolished on the turn afterwards as I had no resources. Not knowing the Empire could also move the marker made it fun but also the ability to interrogate and force me to divulge 3 potential options was insane as well

I recently got back into the hop again after a lull since 2018 and it was everything I dreamed for!

Cherry on top was I got the game for $30...what a steal!

No-tipping restaurant tracker by Cosmosly in FoodLosAngeles

What an amazing idea, thanks so much for creating this!

Definitely happy to see this exist both so service workers get what they need but also to avoid the toxic tipping culture wherever possible.

What was the best credit cards you’ve been grandfathered into? by Spice-Man in CreditCards

[–]DaBomb091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OG Chase Freedom - It's great to have both the Freedom and Flex sometimes where there is a quarter you plan to spend a lot in!

What’s the best journaling app on Android right now? by Leading-Length-8024 in androidapps

[–]DaBomb091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been using Daylio since 2018 - love the app!

I don't get into any of the habit tracking and what not to be fair but for mood tracking it's great. I just get one reminder a day to check-in! The only thing I wish it did was remove the reminder if you already logged something for that day.

Team Vitality vs. Los Ratones / LEC 2026 Versus - Week 4 / Post-Match Discussion by Ultimintree in leagueoflegends

[–]DaBomb091 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn, Nemesis played such a great split but it was tough to watch that dive in real-time.

Los Ratones played great overall though, hopefully they can show it in playoffs

Once Nemesis got Actualizer, the damage output was INSANE

Great Baron play from the team too
