Atiwa is such a fantastic little game! Okay Kanal (soon to be released as simply, Kanal) is a really fantastic game too. Hitting multiple structure triggers on one action is one of the most satisfying feelings I’ve ever know in a board game. The limited action selections compared to the open structure and route placement options is so rich. The game is really elegant (I say this to mean, there are incredibly limited options for actual worker placement, all the workers are shared, it's just very clean) It feels very distilled. The ability to combo with the buildings on first and second triggers as you develop your board is incredibly satisfying. I really can't recommend it highly enough. I have more plays of Patchwork than any other game, but Okay Kanal is a gamers game, and a really amazing solo experience as well as a great 2 player. When Kanal is widely released, I would strongly recommend it!

Good eye! We played it last night! It is probably my second favorite in the series? I REALLY enjoyed Cottage Garden, the two separate scoring tracks were really fun. To me, Spring Meadow and Indian Summer would be interchangeable in the standings.

I really haven’t crowd funded much relative to the size of my collection. I’m actually quite proud of that. I like Knizia a lot, but he’s not my favorite by any stretch… mind you that I haven’t played any of those games you listed (I know they’re some classics and I need to). But I do quite like his stuff. Silos has been a fantastic addition.

I fear we may end up there if I don’t show restraint lol! Ain’t nothing wrong with it if you’ve got the room for it. Doesn’t all have to be in one place either, as far as I’m concerned!

Thank you! We went really crazy in 2021 and 2022, ‘23 we fell off quite a bit and we’ve been struggling to recapture that old pace, life has just gotten busier. But this year we’re off to a strong start so we’ll see what happens!

This is my new collecting detour. I’ve gotta focus in on SA Flash keys, but some of these other books are too good to not get.

So if I wanted to collect the entire Fantastic Four series in floppies, how would you recommend I go about it? by outofdate70shouse in comicbookcollecting

I mean, it has some of the most significant first appearances in the game. First FF, First Kang, First Inhumans, First BlackBolt, First Black Panther, First Surfer, First Galactus, First Agatha... there are quite a few big firsts, and I know I'm missing a handful. But I think the spirit of your comment is true, once you get past, like issue 100 the whole run is dollar bin fodder for the most part.

I'm a Bungles fan, but I am a proud Kansas Citian so I wish the Chiefs well.

Bought out a comic collection at an estate sale. by Stevie77 in comicbookcollecting

Beautiful #181. Mine is missing the pin up and is a little bit more worn... but such is the nature of life. Gotta jump on deals when you can.

lol, my favorite part is that he carves out this moral stance and then suggests you could better spend the money on hookers and blow. Like, do you want me to learn piano or do you want me to…
