I'm supposed to get Lords of Hellas soon. Lots of Kickstarters are expected soon I'm backing On Mars and watching Bloodborne. I'm trying to be strong not getting Bloodborne...but I LOVED that game on the PS4. We got Welcome To and have been enjoying it very much. I got my notice that Neta-Tanka should be arriving soon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even a 25% tariff doesn't get US companies close to beating China on production prices. In my experience, US manufacturing for board games is about double what it is in China. That tariff would need to be about 100%. But, I am not an expert at all. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I started feeling sorry for him after a while. Try this. Nope. Try that. Nope. Another example was in the show Supernatural. The angel Gabriel kept killing Dean in a Ground Hog Day spoof, trying to teach Sam that there is no way he can save Dean. "Look, this stopped being fun a couple of months ago. I just can't get it through you thick head." "What?" "You can't save Dean. You have to let him go." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zoxe 1,177 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) This week I received shipping notices for: Shadows of Brimstone, Forbidden Fortress, Wave 2 The Expanse RPG Shipwreck Arcana (not actual tracking info, but should see a label soon) And both of the DGS games campaigns for Freeblades are shipping early. I'll do a no-cost pickup at Gencon vs. paying for shipping. Edited May 31, 2019 by Zoxe 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ah I didn't watch edge of tomorrow so explains why I couldn't think of it. I forgot about the suicides it's been quite awhile since I've seen it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RomyCat 1,050 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Share Posted June 6, 2019 My second wave expansions came in today for 7th Continent. My sister and I had a blast opening and sorting everything. After seeing how often the adventure deck is shuffled and handled, I had ordered sleeves for it (but not for the rest of the 1000+ cards). Love the minis which came with several of the expansions. And the cool bonus mini which relates to an animal I use to raise. The perfect bonus to me. After we finished sorting and sleeving cards, we played the intro curse "Crystal Song" which is short. As we played the weird floating plants showed up a few times. Creepy and cool. I sooo want to paint those minis soon. Have not run into the devours yet, but I'm sure they will show up when doing the next curse. And with so many new curses added, I don't even know where to start. My sister and I are very excited about the new content.Logged: 12 hours = Voracious Goddess curse10 hours = An Offering to the Guardians curse14 hours = Dark Chest of the Damned (had to kill my beloved goat to survive the last challenge)1 hour = Crystal Song (It's meant to be an intro curse. Short and sweet.) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RomyCat 1,050 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Share Posted June 6, 2019 June Kickstarter List: Got a several Kickstarters in recently. Welcome to... --My sister and I LOVE this one and have played it a lot since in came in during April Welcome To Dino World--we have not played this one yet, but it looks cool. Hope to do so soon. Neta-Tanka--wow, this is not your typical Euro. A very cool game. Blew my mind at times as I had to learn to balance progress chains and time itself. If you want smoke meat, another character (which could be yours or another player) must prepare the meat. But if no one went hunting this time, there will be no meat to cook. Both my sister and I had several wasted meeples the first time we played, as we figured things out. Love how you can create links between your meeples if they are working near each other which gives you bonus items. Kickstarters I am still waiting on: 2019 Roam (plus Haven) 2018 Awkward Guest Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood of Venice (due 2020) Zoo-ography Expedition: the Future Skulk Hollow D6: Dungeons, Dudes, Dames, Danger, Dice & Dragons! Tiny Epic Mechs Bargain Quest & Black Market Incoming Transmission Snowdonia Tang Garden Skull Tales: Full Sail! 2016 Whelps to Wyrims (Printed but developer ran out of money to ship them. They are sitting in a warehouse somewhere in Canada.) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoxe 1,177 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Shipwreck Arcana fulfilled this week. Got it out of the box and read through the instructions. Looks like a really good, lightweight game that I could play with nearly anyone. At $24, I'm still keeping my new years resolution. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/meromorphgames/the-shipwreck-arcana-stars-below 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
