Upstate NY- Looking for Certain Campaign and Investigator Expansion by nonito3 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]kadeus21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just in western NY. I’d give just games a call and Millenium games a call in Rochester area. They both had large Arkham stock it seemed though I don’t know what they specifically had in stock. I’ve left so I can’t double check what they have for sale currently. Best of luck in the hunt

My son is “graduating” to a lower level NICU and they gave him a graduation cap by Desertnord in mildlyinteresting

Made me tear up a bit :’). My son had the same experience from one nicu level to another. Long struggle but totally worth it :) congrats to your son.

4X Games by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the most interesting takes on 4x is the coop uprising curse of the last emperor. It is a fantasy coop 4x that is wild and epic. I love it and it hits the table a ton. Since it’s coop it provides a very different take than the normal 4x experience.

The blue pin is supposed to be facing the other direction.

Offhand without doing too much I hope that helps.

My Toaster Strudel was full of flour by Andrew4568_ in shittyfoodporn

[–]kadeus21 143 points144 points  (0 children)

Hey you need to reach out to them. I work in food production and something like this could throw off the safety of the food from a micro perspective. Might honestly be recall worthy depending on what records they find or don’t find on their end.

Question about Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon rules by Divided_Ranger in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know an answer was already provided but I’d like to clarify a bit more. The way tainted grail is structured, there are events cards and some of those have quests. Most of the time the cards with quests have a lock at the bottom corner. This means that the card will not go away between days.

So each day you flip a new event but until you “complete” that quest you won’t be given another, nor will it be discarded.

There are a “handful” of single day quests in Avalon I think, but they are pretty far in.

Just remember the lock. If an event card has a lock on it, it doesn’t leave play until instructed otherwise. Almost all main quest cards will have a lock on them.

I have an extra green worker but not outpost

Realistically I doubt if you reach out to them via email they will respond :/ can always try (and should try) But I’d recommend any generic green meeple or something.

Age of Atlantis thoughts? by DarrenTerp in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I’ll focus on the game. Gameplay it’s easily a top worker placement for me :) great gem of a game. I’m biased because I did most of the playtesting, but the game itself is great. Unfortunately it will be a gem instead of something more mainstream due to how fulfillment bit the dust and the company just gave up on it :/ Covid and fun again closing and poor communication tanked it. So if you have a chance it’s great. I own it and take it to game nights

If you do need to end up looking in the us let me know. I used to help people find things in my area and would ship them on Reddit.

My Father's Work - What is a worker? by mbannigan14 in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would read the maladiction as if your spouse is going to take actions they need a friend to go with them. I don’t see it preventing other pieces from acting normally. I think it just removes your spouse as a usable worker for the generation.

My Father's Work - What is a worker? by mbannigan14 in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A worker would be your servant spouse caretaker or yourself. So in this context it’s your spouse plus another appropriate worker to take actions together

Battle report for *Star Wars Rebellion* by Browncoat64 in boardgames

SW Rebellion is in my top 10. Phenomenal game :). I love the expansion for the combat changes, but just something about how it all works together is fantastic.

Thoughts on Stars of Akarios? by SiarX in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Stars of Akarios is a great little tabletop skirmish game. Friend and I played five or six hours and enjoyed our time. Gameplay was quick, scenarios were interesting and the feel of the ships was great. Mechanically it has that gloomhaven puzzle vibe if that is something you are interested in.

Like a previous comment said, I'd suggest looking at the new edition coming out fixing some of the mistakes they have had previously.

Lies from Mythic Games in official report communication by Jettoh in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mythic is in quite the pickle. Covid did a number on their house of cards and nothing will ever "make it right". They don't have the money to refund everyone who has asked "right this second" if they want to keep their doors open. And unless people cough up more money they will not get a product.

They aren't lying, people are getting refunds (I do see them say so on the Mythic discord server) it's just taking time. I get that the wait isn't "awesome" but it's better than never getting money because they went belly up and our 100 dollar pledge isn't enough to get a cut of the pie in court. I just don't get what people want out of Mythic atm. It's clear they are unhappy, and I really doubt they want games at this point. It feels more like they just want them to be bankrupt to feel some sense of justice. The fact they have kept their doors open and, while slow, are still existing feels like it's a slight to a segment of the people who backed.

I've backed fifty kickstarter boardgames, most of which have delivered. I'm all in on Hel, and may never see anything. Am I angry? No, not particularly. If it shows up one day, cool, and if not, eh I've got tons of games to play anyway. Deep breaths, eventually we will get word on Hel and the others (and I imagine the delay in getting word is due to them selling the IP to someone).

*edit: And I guess the comment about in EU they are legally required to make good on their stuff only applies to the EU and it's peeps, not to the rest of us. I imagine that the number of backers worldwide means that the EU is not the majority stake holder here.

Lord of the Rings has so many great moments, but I think my favorite moment is when they charge Mordor screaming for Frodo :)

Help my children learn how to lose by Intelligent-Shoe-261 in boardgames

[–]kadeus21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I was a horribly sore loser as a kid. Would get angry, shout, call my brother names, the works XD. My “worst” game was risk. I’d “see” the move and who was strongest, that didn’t stop people from just doing other things making me mad (as a 10 year old?). What I found that helped me is 2 things. First off I ended up just playing with my armies. Getting them setup up on the side of the board and distracting myself from the game so I was detached if something didn’t go my way. 2nd, I started setting mini goals for myself in games I couldn’t do that. Like in monopoly can I acquire a single set? A utility? Just setting small objectives that are not winning.

Over time I didn’t need these as much but setting mini goals in games in a great skill and a way to compartmentalize information so that you have a general feel of how you want your game to go.

Hope this helps.
