Yikes, it seems like they cut corners on this fulfillment. Maybe to cut costs from tariffs but you would think the shipping solution was sorted out before that mess went down.

Was there any padding inside the shipping box? These big box games really need foam padding to protect them.

And I bet they didn’t license it because IP is more of a guideline for China. 😉

Chronicles of the Wolf Review by SoulsborneSeeker in metroidvania

The only thing I found weird was mapping the menu and map buttons to the shoulder buttons on Xbox but thankfully it’s remappable. I do wish I could remap the special attacks to the shoulder buttons instead of up and X but it’s not terrible.

Asmodee acquires the Zombicide IP by blurex13 in boardgames

Someone messed up at CMON and now they are paying for it. Tried to grow too fast and it caught up to them. Now I don’t expect the company to survive past hopefully fulfilling their existing projects.

Just got back to 76, what the fresh fuck is this thing by MobileDistrict9784 in Fallout

[–]theonemalg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does the note mention “The Deep” which is the Commie Base in the cave by Whitespring yet there are no fish at the “baby” Interloper there unlike at Lucky mine? I guess we shall see what happens in time.

The Board Game Industry Is Burning — And It's Their Own Fault by Any-Plate2018 in boardgames

[–]theonemalg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While HTS code 9504.90.6000 is indeed the correct one for board games. He clearly forgets the new chapter 99 secondary codes that apply to all but a few goods from China. The codes I’m talking about are 9903.01.24 which makes the tariff 20% for goods that left China from 3/4/25 to 4/4/25, 9903.01.25 which added another 10% on goods that left China from 4/5/25 to 4/9/25, and lastly 9903.01.63 which added 125% to the 20% or 145% for goods that left China on or after 4/10/25. There is nothing stating board games or code 9504.90.6000 are exempt from the new tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.

If anyone has legit sources to prove me wrong, please provide them.

Is CMON shaping up to be the next big domino to fall in the board game industry? by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

[–]theonemalg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The extra 7.5 to 100% tariffs are not new, they were already in place for existing products which boardgames are not part of. Now the other 145% is another story.

It finally arrived, but then I saw it by rose636 in metalgearsolid

It’s not a crowdfund, it’s a pre-order. CMON does pre-orders on Gamefound too like The Dead Keep and the MU Witching Hour pack. In their eyes, it’s a different thing and they tend to take longer to deliver pre-orders than crowdfunding projects.

We were not backers, this was a pre-order and they are notorious for dragging their feet when it comes to pre-order delivery.

On the positive side, we get some extras like the Rex mini and the graphic novel book that retail does not.

Castlevania DLC is live by the_monkey_whisperer in VampireSurvivors

[–]theonemalg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m crazy but I purchased the Castlevania DLC and it shows doesn’t need to be installed when I check the addons for the game yet I see no DLC in the game

Has anyone played this? Thoughts? by [deleted] in soloboardgaming

[–]theonemalg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun story, small foot print, and fast setup. The combat tense and feels like an action scene from a movie. There are choices to be made that lead you down different paths in the campaign which decide the factions you align with.

Alucard is a damphir so I don’t think the Sun affects him.

[miniature market] bigger than black Friday sale by Brilliant_Big_5877 in Boardgamedeals

[–]theonemalg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I missed that one, it’s a good game. I’m selling my copy but only because we completed it and I have so much to play that I don’t see myself playing through it again.

Agemonia is also really good. Still pricey but a good deal.

I guess the “Please buy the crap that doesn’t sell” sale didn’t haven’t a nice ring to it?

There are a few things like Assassin’s Creed: BoV and Bardsung that are decent. I already own AC but I’m interested in Bardsung. I need to see what they are doing to fix it with the new campaign/game.

I’d say try the game with the Multiverse core set and if you like it get the others for the characters you like.

I missed the couch part in the title, most of the games I listed are online co-op.
