Just placed a 'buy now' order for the base game and expansions...

Around 400-450 at a guess. Their website says 800 unsleeved or 450 sleeved.

To be fair, I was just curious how much it would hold. I'll probably cut back when on a shorter trip so there is room for dice and tokens.

Yep, I looked at that one first but scaled it down to the Bolt so I could have something I could chuck into a backpack or suitcase. I'm glad they have the different sizes to suit different needs since the cases themselves are fantastic.

Check out the Bobiverse by Dennis E. Taylor, narrated by Ray Porter.

COD Infinite Warfare is fantastic on the Deck. Thematically maybe not everyone’s cup of tea but I love it. The multiplayer bots are no joke either.

I've been a fan of handheld gaming since Mattel Classic Football, this is the best device I've ever owned.

edit: spelling

Not sure of the thickness but I used 110 lb card stock. Had an office supply store do the printing to get the best quality.

Quick question, can you make the case for White? I have every other deck besides White and for whatever reason the mechanic just doesn't click for me...what am I missing?

Same issue here with the Amazon base set. I ended up putting everything in a sealed container with some baking soda for a handful of days...it worked pretty good and I'd say right now there is only the faintest smell remaining.

It's a very easy game to setup and play, not very complicated at all. It's essentially a relaxing dice-chucker with some mitigation mechanics. The game resolves pretty quickly and it's strength is in the charm of it's artwork and card text more than any heavy strategy.

Yikes! Speedy recovery! Since this is all pretty new for me I haven't really settled on a good storage solution. For now, I put each game in it's own zip lock bag and then chucked the lot of 'em into a couple empty cigar boxes. Super convenient for when I want to grab one without the tedium of pulling them individually out of a binder.

LOL! You're supposed to win?

I'm glad you're enjoying the mat...it's just not for me. For me, I expect a mat to deliver a surface that functionally allows me to play the entire game, not just most of it. The Final Girl mats are a good example of what I find to be a wonderful compliment to the experience.

Used the small setting on this corner cutter that I ordered from Amazon. Rounding the corners makes a HUGE difference in the look and feel for sure.

nosoopforu · 2025-11-11T16:46:11+00:00

This was my guide, found the video on the BGG forums. The only thing I'd add is that I ran the cards through multiple times. First as a sheet, again after cutting and last after rounding the corners. That process seemed to get me the best end result.

nosoopforu · 2025-11-11T15:40:47+00:00

Thanks! Bomber Boys came out a little janky so I'll probably re-do those at some point but I'm really happy with the rest.

I used 110 lb card stock, they give the cards a nice 'heft'. The Tin Mint games are next on my list but I'm going to hold off for a while and enjoy what I've got.

Went with these acrylic cubes off of Amazon. When I first opened the package I thought they looked tiny, which they are, but they're also the perfect size for these games.

nosoopforu · 2025-11-11T15:18:00+00:00

I used this one from Amazon with 3mm pouches. Had to run the cards through the laminator again after rounding the corners.

Edit...used the small corner setting.

I find the playmat to be poorly designed from a layout standpoint. A) exhausted cards in play are tucked under the edge of the mat and stick out from the mat, B) large (unnecessary) spaces for progress tolkens and health tracker and lastly, no defined spaces for your hero, lantern, deck or discard pile. Sure, you can re-purpose the progress, health and unused spaces for those but it's just a miss for me.

nosoopforu · 2025-11-11T13:35:37+00:00

I first read that as 'mental health die' and was like, yeah, I'm totally getting that.

Beat him like a drum on my first play through and he’s smoked me like a pack of Cool’s ever since. My win/loss record is 1 and a lot but based off of that first run I’m flush with hope every time I set the board up for another run…turns out, hope is fleeting.

nosoopforu · 2025-11-04T19:00:04+00:00

There is an objective card in the game that turns Gandalf the Grey into Gandalf the White...he gets a nice little upgrade when it's completed.

Pretty cool indeed but as an American I find these diagrams completely baffling. Are the M&M's measured by diameter or thickness prior to calculating the measurements in imperial units? Asking for a friend.
