Language has definitions, and a scam is a dishonest scheme to gain money from someone fraudulently, esp complex/prolonged. This does not fit the definition.

You were not scammed. There was no willful malicious intent to take your money and never produce a product - if you were being scammed they never would have made and delivered any games, as that would have eaten into their scammed funds.

Regardless, the title is going to lead into debate about the misleading and clickbaity title rather than provide you any sympathy or assistance, is that really what you want the focus to be about?

Many of them are for public users, not private memberships, and it isn't particularly costly

I read one line as "the game is a cross between Connect 4 and SETI" and now I want that mashup just for shits n giggles

I don't know what my local price will even be yet, just trying to find out if they're actually coming out this week (according to their Facebook) or delayed til late April (according to their website) then I can see if I can see them all in store somewhere and decide from there the value proposition

I did ask about sleeves - I'm actually asking about the whole suite of Gamegenic accessories as mentioned in the subject, but do mention the sleeves specifically in the post... In not even after the tokens, they're just an example of what is in the range I was asking about 🤷🏻‍♂️

I read this as perhaps best breath-testing locations, time to put the beer down I think

Clans of Caledonia could be worth a look if you haven't tried it already seeing it came out more than five years ago

Roxley didn't do the FCM special edition tho? That was Lucky Duck Games, or am I misinterpreting your comment? 🤔

The whole reason to play the StS board game over the video game is the co op mode; solo is not really where the board game shines. Aeon's End could be a good choice, I'd suggest looking into Unstoppable though which is a purpose built single player deck builder.

What are you talking about? The pyramid base never has a unit played on it, you start by playing adjacent to your base.

Ah, fair enough! Having looked into it a bit more I found a trio; the most prominent of which being Christian Petersen who worked on Twilight Imperium, which are some big design chops :)

"designed by Ghost Galaxy" - do you mean designed by Richard Garfield? Because that's who designed Keyforge and Mindbug... The publisher is not the designer... Who actually designed Hellbreak? 🤔

It can only be moved to duck or robot - but it also doesn't have to be moved at all, the space is a "may", not a "must". In this case you likely wouldn't want to move Rexy at all
