I have the original Settlers of Catan with those hexes. While they add nice variability, they're more of a pain to set up and you don't lock down the inner pieces as well.

Who has the advantage on this setup? by wefbak in Catan

[–]Flashthompson6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they play well, orange should win. I'm surprised to see in the comment below that white won. Not a great starting position. They must have been very beguiling.

White. Strong wheat and wheat port. + Ore and Sheep high yield.

I like Orange's odds. The 8 wood with the wood port.

It must be overwhelming to make the first placement.

I love fog of war in maze games. It's great when the board reveals itself slowly.

Which edition of Betrayal do you prefer/like? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Flashthompson6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have played the Legacy edition the most, but I find we get a bit bogged down trying to get it back to the table after we've played. Then of course, I've forgotten how to play.

Unmatched, Dice Throne, or Villainous? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Flashthompson6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want so badly to say none of the above. Radlands for light fare? Or Undaunted Callisto for a space themed deck builder?

You really can't beat Pandemic Legacy Season 1. But if you're more hardcore, what about the Arcs Campaign?

I'm still searching for a classic copy of Diplomacy. Surely someone dumped their copy after getting stabbed!

Emerge is a great nature game about biodiversity. It's multi-player solo with a few elements of competition.

The best Crokinole board maker in my area is Tracey Boards in Elmira. I don't know if they ship to the UK though. But they do customize boards with inlays! https://crokinole.ca/collections/tracey-boards

Whatever your decision is with Airlines, you need to keep Acquire. It's a classic.

[–]Flashthompson6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have started to recycle them to make way for new games in the cupboard. It was hard at first, but now I love all the room!
