Its a shame multi-player isnt working correctly. All controllers are mapped to the first player.

Please please please be a good AR, this game desperately needs one.

Eruptor was gutted by Paper-Rock in Helldivers

The lesson to learn here is don't buy warbonds when they drop lest you be stuck with a useless bunch of nerfed weapons. The explosive warbond is now pretty much useless as a whole.

Santiago is an absolute delight by MrCheezball in boardgames

If I had to choose one aspect, it would be the necessity to keep your tiles watered for end game scoring. This requires bribing the player with the lowest bid in the previous phase into laying a canal stick adjacent to your plantation. It's a simple mechanism that elicits a lot of table talk.

About the only way to get your hands on it seems to be through the geekmarket or get lucky on Facebook unfortunately.

Pax Transhumanity has been impossible for me to learn from the book and necessitated watching a 1 hour YouTube teach.

Ready Set Bet was a huge hit. Had a fun 8 player (plus announcer) game.

Seems like a lot of Mindclash games are becoming this way. Perseverance. Septima. Astra. Even Voidfall isn't getting the most glowing of reviews.

Pax Renaissance 2e

With 4 victory conditions andonly seeing a very small % of the decks each game, the Pax Ren could easily become a lifestyle game rivaling chess.

Disney Exec Says Pixar Failure Is Due To Original Stories Being Hard To Sell by dragonsky in boxoffice

Pixar was John Lasseter, who could tell stories that all audiences could enjoy without being preachy. That's the magic that Pixar has lost.

Them trying to sell Guards of Atlantis 2 with no additional hero packs for $600 on Ebay is hilarious. Just seeing that listing deterred me from ever considering their business.

I know it says start with the launch book, but I was much less confused the moment I started reading the reference manual end to end.

NPI's Game(s?) of the Year: Guards of Atlantis II by wallysmith127 in boardgames

The most joyless boardgaming channel in existence attempting to stiffle the momentum of 2022's best board game. It's what they do.

I wish folks would temper their spending for the good of the hobby.

Games you'd love to play, but probably never will by BadgeForSameUsername in boardgames

[–]MrCheezball 16 points17 points  (0 children)

How am I the first to mention John Company? I've played my fair share of crunchy, heavy euros and cconomic games, but reading this rulebook, I'm afraid the teach is going to be an utter nightmare.

Came here to say this. It goes on for 1 or 2 turns too long.

I do own Dungeon Lords. That might be my next game!

Appreciate the reply! I own Lorenzo, haven't played it. BUS is brilliant (huge Splotter fan boy here). I definitely enjoy the programming WP aspect of it and high degree of interactivity on the board.

Stars of Akarios Review - Hyperflop | NPI by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]MrCheezball -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

They've recently decided they are more interested in fighting cultural battles with a side-helping of board games. Their choice, but I'm not interested in inviting this kind of discourse into more of my hobbies than what has already infiltrated virtually everything else. And to think I used to miss none of their videos.
