SteveStar Trek: Captain's Chair, 2 players A bare bones TTS mod for Captain's Chair came out so I can finally play it 2p instead of just solo with my physical copy, it's a little dense for my partner. It's still an interesting one, a bit of a hard recommend because of its up-front complexity on cards and long, chunky early games before you reach deck and card familiarity. Playing the two player game did show its good side besides length. The neutral zone, away team, and ship area control subgame makes a huge difference in the game and mostly solves the multiplayer solitaire accusation leveled at Imperium, even if that's one I don't completely share. There are a lot of points at stake and it's hard to imagine anyone ignoring the opponent and winning. I think that means that the delta in game quality between solo and 2p is much bigger in Captain's Chair than it is for Imperium, with 2p being much better and more full featured in Captain's Chair despite the pretty good bot cards. I would say, by and large, it's not actually that hard to choose between Imperium and this now that I've played both. If you like sorting through often 3+ hard choices per card and threading the play of a huge number of cards a turn, Captain's Chair is your game. Unfortunately it comes at the expense of a lot of undesirable reading, complexity, and confusion with every card that you get since you have to parse all of its options. Forget just picking up a deck for the first time, it's going to be dense. On the other hand, if you like to make the deck go brrr in a deckbuilding game, trimming it as much as possible and doing the classic deckbuilder thing with simpler individual card plays, Imperium is the way to go. I like them both and am willing to buy into both. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/startrekcaptainschair?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#startrekcaptainschair</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/startrek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#startrek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/davidturczi?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#davidturczi</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nigelbuckle?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nigelbuckle</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wizkids?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#wizkids</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletop?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletop</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopsimulator?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopsimulator</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/brettspiele?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#brettspiele</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/deckbuilding?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#deckbuilding</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgamegeek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgamegeek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bgg?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bgg</a>

Ryan OlsonWe got another game played today, Flip 7. I had tried it on BGA and wasn't sure why so make gamers were tlaking about loving it. Very random, kind of unbalanced because of the randomness... But I picked up a cheap copy anyway, at the very least I figured someone in the family might enjoy it It's a totally different game in real life. Silly push your luck with lots of taunting, a little bit of screw your neighbor but not enough to feel too mean, we had a blast with it. Would definitely recommend for a party game to not be taken very seriously. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BGG?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BGG</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BoardGameGeek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoardGameGeek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/CardGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CardGames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/FamilyGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FamilyGames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PartyGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PartyGames</a>

Benno_BeckmannFür uns ist <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Bierpioniere" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Bierpioniere</a> ein sehr starkes Spiel, das erneut auf den Tisch kommen wird. Für mich eine <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BGG" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#BGG</a> 9. Besonders gut gefallen uns die unterschiedlichen "Arbeitskraftgruppen" und selbstredend das Spielthema. Beide Erweiterungsmodule haben sich nahtlos in das Spiel eingefügt; mir hat insbesondere das Modul "Export" Freude bereitet. Gleichzeitig denken wir, dass die Erweiterungsmodule nicht zwingend sind, sondern bereits das Grundspiel für sich hervorragend ist.

Ryan OlsonJo and I got Galactic Cruise to the table today. Really fun. Theme of running a company with launching rocket cruises comes through quite well. A ton of things to do, so it feels a little overwhelming at first, but the turns are quick and the actions are simple to do. It's thinky but in a good way. For a first play it took us just under 2.5 hours, which wasn't unexpected. Time went quickly, especially because of how quick the turns went. We had a good time. I'm excited to try it either solo or with more players. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BGG?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BGG</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BoardGameGeek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoardGameGeek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EuroGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EuroGames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/WorkerPlacement?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WorkerPlacement</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BoardGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoardGames</a>

Ryan OlsonJo comes over every couple of weeks to do their laundry. So we play games. Finished our first full game of Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era. You play 3 sessions per campaign, so it's not particularly long (Although our shortest session was almost 4 hours.), but the way they created the game up, you don't really want it to go on for too long, you want to start up and make another run and try new things We had a fantastic experience. Your characters advance at a nice pace, you have a ton of things you can customize, and the combat and gameplay are fun and engaging. We played on the easiest difficulty, so we were never in too dire a situation, but it didn't feel ready, even though we were kind of crushing our opponents, a lot of that was after we figured out the best ways to take on each battle. Can't wait to give it another shot, but I think we might try out some more Dice Throne Missions or Dragon Eclipse next time to try to get some more of those played. Lots of great games have arrived this year. I do think this one is definitely landing in my top 5, probably even top 3 games. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BGG?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BGG</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BoardGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoardGames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DiceGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DiceGames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ElderScrolls?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ElderScrolls</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ChipTheoryGames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ChipTheoryGames</a>

SteveHubworld: Aidalon, 2 players The Earthborne Games team did a fun little thing and released a free demo deck for their upcoming LCG, Hubworld Aidalon. Just pay shipping and they'll send you a physical deck, and they let a TTS module of it out into the wild as well. It's sort of a rebirth of netrunner, with many similar concepts but without a clear offense/defense player split. It's a nice, tightly put together package. Really good game if competitive CCGs are your thing, especially ones with a lot of deception that aren't clear card fighting games. I was pretty impressed. That said, I don't know that I'll be getting the finished product when it goes up for crowd funding---I just don't have room in my life for a 1-2 times a year non-coop LCG. I play most of my competitive games online, without much room for a deck building game that would feature lots of thrust counter-thrust ideally against a regular opponent. It took about an hour, and was kinda slow on TTS because a lot of it involves revealing cards which can be a lengthier thing than it would be in person. The decisionmaking felt quite sharp and the economic considerations were extremely brutal. One thing to call out in the game is that it looks *great.* It has a totally cohensive art style across all of the cards. It's sort of a late 1970s Legend of Galactic Heroes anime style crossed with Moebius style European cartoons of the era. Whomever is the art director is killing it---all of the card art pulled in exactly the same direction, which is a tough thing to pull off. By comparison, my Arkham LCG player card set came in and the difference was palpable---Arkham has art styles all over the place and struggles to create any sense of place. Anyway, huge recommend that you try this one out if you're in the competitive LCG/CCG audience. Shipping was ~7 USD. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hubworldaidalon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hubworldaidalon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/earthbornegames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#earthbornegames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/michaelboggs?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#michaelboggs</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/corydevore?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#corydevore</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletop?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletop</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopsimulator?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopsimulator</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ccg?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ccg</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lcg?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lcg</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/netrunner?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#netrunner</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bgg?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bgg</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgamegeek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgamegeek</a>

SteveUprising Curse of the Last Emperor, 2 players I love this game, but it's just a little off balance. Not so bad that it ruins the game but it's just... swingy. This is a moment where we had five legions dropped on us mid game and thought we were done for. We managed to get several of the enemies to fight due to good placement and a lucky tile flip, though, and then won some critical turn 2 combats which left just getting efficiently through turn 3. I was trailing a bit so my partner sandbagged points for me and we ended up winning by ~10. Uprising is so close to perfect, but it's just missing a couple key wrench tightens to make the game a touch less swingy. Swingy crazy situations like the one pictured are part of the appeal, of course, so you would want to even it out too much and throw out the baby with the bathwater. Just a nip and tuck here that ensured more consistent amount of pressure from the enemies, rather than an early T2 climax and falling action, and this would be an all timer. It is still an all timer for me, but you need to be in its wheelhouse as an old-school ameritrash fan. With some complaints out of the way, let me deploy some sugar. This game has dialed in the ability to give you toys. That's really important in this sort of game. My friend was drawing sick but expensive items that gave him god tier archery and it felt incredible. Everything is so dialed in in this game to make you stronger than the five units per hex make you feel. It generates this beautiful fist pumping energy because late game legions and hordes are so strong, but the game gives you all these copious ways to feel smart and overcome them. Can't wait to get a copy of this. It Gets me, though the person I was playing with thought it was good not great, which I can't disagree with totally. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/uprisingcurseofthelastemperor?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#uprisingcurseofthelastemperor</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nemesisgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nemesisgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/corneliuscremin?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#corneliuscremin</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pawelmazur?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pawelmazur</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/dirksommer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dirksommer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletop?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletop</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopgames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopgames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/brettspiele?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#brettspiele</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/brettspiel?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#brettspiel</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bgg?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bgg</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/boardgamegeek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#boardgamegeek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tabletopsimulator?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tabletopsimulator</a>

SteveFields of Fire Deluxe, solo I've been working through my retry of mission one of Naktong River (Korean War) slowly, an hour or so at a time here and there. It was rocky but I was making solid progress, occupying the objective... until I pulled a counter attack random event and it all fell apart. Here, you can see my core command staff behind friendly lines but adjacent to an empty spot (whoops) being destroyed with a heavy mortar attack. Most of the line is ruined as well. I'll be lucky to have more than half an intact company available for try three if I survive the attack. There's an interesting mindset shift you have to go through with non-eurogames, especially wargames. I've been playing a lot more euros and tightly geared together games in the last five years, so I'm a little out of touch with it. Fields is asking you to accept unexpected events that aren't fair and deal with it as best you can, as your real life counterpart might have to. Fields can extra ramp unfair situations up because it's solo, so it's really about the journey. While this ethos leads to dismaying conditions like me dragging myself through the last five turns of this mission with every man who can lift a gun staggering through, it generates tremendously memorable situations. More importantly, it generates drama and hardship to create those memories.
