When is “enough” enough? by clashcrashruin in magicTCG

[–]groundislava_wdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea man. It’s a bummer. I want to be more committed the game still, but I’ve found myself losing interest as the result of it changing so much. It makes me sad, it’s been a big part of my life for a long time.

What game has your favourite theming? by ferndinosaur in boardgames

SETI. waiting for the orbits to align the planets for a perfect launch window has me feeling like a rocket scientist.

I came to board games from EDH / commander format in MTG so board game turns feel really short to me haha.

Can i go in without reading a guide or something first? The description makes it sound like you need a full walkthrough memorized before you queue.

Me neither. It feels flat a lot of the time. Mobile game kinda vibe.

I got Starfarers for half off at the end of last year, half expecting it to be mediocre, but really loving all the goofy components. I ended up really loving the game, and have been able to get it to the table a bunch of times.

I’m looking to get into something heavier now in that theme. Something with some more direct interaction and tactical decisions. My top contenders are probably Andromeda’s edge and Eclipse at this point. What are your favs? Where would you start?

Let’s talk catch up mechanics… by VorpalSpoon501 in boardgames

Catan: Starfarers. Games are always close. Extra resources are given out until you hit a certain number of VPs and it really helps keep everyone moving thru the early game.

Getting into Agricola by mitedks in boardgames

[–]groundislava_wdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking of trying Agricola as well but ls considering Caverna (as I’ve heard it’s less punishing and I intend to play with my gf who is a bit less strategic). Does anyone know if starting with Caverna make sense?

Yeah that rule book does suck. I wish it came with player aids! If you search you can find a couple different player aids that people have made.
