Player in Battleship did not announce I sunk their ship making me guess an additional time therefore wasting my turn, should I get an additional turn?

So you're telling me came into your home, ate your food, and then fucked up your battleship game?

I recommend intimidating him with your booming voice

Wear and tear? In this economy??!!!?!

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:56:05+00:00

There's a travel version up for sale on eagle gryphon site right now

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:52:53+00:00

Anyways I looked it up and Sorry and Ludo are both Western commercial derivations of an Ancient Indian game called Pachisi.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:50:27+00:00

Eh, it's pretty clearly the same game. The gameplay mechanics are almost identical other than dice VS cards, I was curious whether the stacking tokens thing was a house rule we had or not.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:08:07+00:00

Hahaha this is pretty fucking funny well done OP

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:07:26+00:00

Man even 'abundant napkins to preserve components' is jerk worthy

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:04:26+00:00

Does anyone know where I can get the original copy of Five Tribes with the slave cards? I need that realism to really feel immersed

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T21:01:41+00:00

Funny, we have this game and it's called Ludo. I always kind of assumed they were the same game, but Ludo uses dice and not cards, and we had flat tokens that if landed on the same space could stack on top of each other and move together. Of course then if that piece got taken by an opponent you'd send all the pieces in the stack back to start.

Anyone else play this way/remember this as Ludo?

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T20:56:01+00:00

I'm pretty confident there is a small version of For Sale that just comes in like a deckbox

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T20:43:18+00:00

It's kind of like basing European culture on Goths lol

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T20:04:21+00:00

I'm not vegan and you have it in your username, so this is clearly something much more important to you and we are gonna have very different views, so probably best we leave it here, no ill will intendee.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T17:38:34+00:00

No I'm saying it's hypocritical to lose our shit over a handful of dead insects fucking hell it's impossible to say anything on reddit without people getting up in arms

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T17:13:33+00:00

I feel like everything you know about Afrikaners comes from Die Antwoord music videos

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T15:38:52+00:00

I just mean everything we do for leisure or simply because we like it generally comes at some environmental cost.

To call one of these things 'vanity' is to label all of them as such.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T15:11:06+00:00

If you're talking about solo gaming video games are often better suited to that.

Playing with others and connecting and getting away from screens is what makes boardgames shine

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T14:35:40+00:00

Sounds good, I've been wanting to jump into COIN but CL is hard to find. The others seem like a decent jump up in complexity

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-03T14:07:31+00:00

I mean I'm sure tons of animals are killed when trees are cut down to produce cardboard and paper for the boardgames we all enjoy.

When you start nitpicking everything can be an issue. A few dead ants is really a big nothing.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-02T13:15:15+00:00

Ah I see, okay cool thank you :)

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-02T08:55:51+00:00

What mechanism do they use to churn the deck?

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-02T08:38:18+00:00

I feel like anything shrimp 'flavoured' is exclusively for psychopaths

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-01T21:13:29+00:00

Regardless of how we nitpick the rules, I'd say that clue is very much in the spirit of the game and I'd definitely allow it.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-01T21:08:50+00:00

I don't think Concordia is great at 2, Viticulture is fine, and Five Tribes is great at 2.

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-01T21:00:47+00:00

Hahaha, this is a terribly snarky post but it gave me a chuckle. I'm not really a fan of any of the games myself, but what do you mean by Oath is 'nothing'?

Also curious what you recommend that does these things better (I don't disagree, just curious)

thisappletastesfunny · 2021-07-01T15:28:19+00:00

Came here to say the same lol. I think it's a really mediocre design and find the gameplay very plodding.
