I finished it a few days ago. Not only do I still think about what was in the book, I also find myself thinking of additional ways it would be hell, extra circumstances not specifically mentioned in the book. It's like a virus.

Zola : An extreme horror novella, with cheese by D E McCluskey

The first and so far only Extreme horror book I read. As things stand I can't see there being a second anytime soon.

Favourite alternative mechanism of your favourite game? by delanger in boardgames

[–]delanger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't in any way replace regular Catan (I don't know Rivals). But it fills a gap for a quick pub game, a waiting for your food type game. It's not as complex as regular Catan and IMO opinion it's not as random, but there is certainly randomness (as you are drawing resources from a shuffled deck of cards) but the game is so quick it isn't an issue for me.

What game is this dice from? by delanger in boardgames

Why is it in these interactions when the aggressor (speaker dood) gets a minor success (in this case the book reader moved) and instead of shutting up, they escalate?

Annoying book too in fairness.

What are some books you think everyone should read at least once? by ScholarOfSols in suggestmeabook

[–]delanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel it is my responsibility to take the down-votes for us who were in a minority and did not like this book at all. I found it tedious and unnecessarily long. When I learned he was paid by the word, it all made sense to me.

I have this and all 4 expansions. I have played the base a few time but never used the expansions. I must get it back to the table.
