Is that the Taneras 5e Stuff @PrplChilPill, I was looking at that too Yes.....but what I want to do is spend entirely too much (I want it all)....but can't imagine I'd ever use it all. Might go in for the main board game and the minis and cards....but the RPG looks unique.....but I own so MUCH RPG stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to get my hands on Taneras Adventures, though that one is just delivering soon. I am tempted to back right now just in case I keep it so I can get that dragon, but I do have some dragon minis coming in from another game.

I'm interested in the two main board games (pretty sure you need arena to play adventures).....maybe I'll just do those two and the minis and card?

Decided to stick with my "I don't need more RPG worlds for DnD" pledge for deciding on KS to back or not, and passed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 GenCon week this week. I'm not going, but I am going to be going to the GameZenter (used to be Fantasy Flight Game Center) for pop-up GenCon. I'm curious to see what that will be like, there are going to be some games released there and some demos. But things kick off tonight with Fantasy Flight's In Flight report. I'm going to be curious about that because a lot of their stuff has been moved to different teams in Asmodee or just gotten rid of. I know Fantasy Flight as a whole has been downsized a fair amount by Asmodee. But it is still Fantasy Flight so I'm interested in what they have.

The Gnat Posted September 20, 2021 Author Share Posted September 20, 2021 Pop-Up GenCon was a lot of fun, got to play "four" games. My Farm Shop - Good easy to play game. Definitely family weight. I picked it up because it reminded me of Machi Koro where you get to activate something every turn. Unfathomable - The new version of BSG is very good. The game feels a little bit tighter than BSG and still is an amazingly good game. I pre-ordered it. Descent: Legends of the Dark - I own it but hadn't played it before. The app is very good and game play is a lot of fun. I want to get it to the table more long. Catan Yard Game - basically Catan bags, good silly fun.

Azul? Wingspan? Did I miss them? Was Jaws of the Lion in there (great intro to Gloomhaven, and so much easier to set up)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 There was a board game market/exchange at a local Minneapolis cidery, so of course I had to go check it out. I am almost wishing I spent more money, there was Shadow Hunters which looked interesting, Cloudspire, Maximum Apocalypse and Hoplamacus all that looked interesting. I got one big game, Mechs vs Minions, that I've wanted for a long time. And then I picked up three roll and writes: Imperial Settlers: Roll and Write, Copenhagen: Roll and Write, and Hex Roller as well as a solo game, Palm Island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 On of my favorite games, Dice Throne is getting an IP version which is going to be Marvel. I'm really excited for that, coming to Kickstarter. It's basically a head to head dueling game that uses the Yahtzee style rolling for your actions. The original was a tournament style fighting story to the game, but all of it was fantasy setting, or most of it ways anyways. And even with dice and rolling the game was very unique in how each character played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl_sjunior Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Anyone play Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion ? I bought it and set it up but it seems overwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played it through the first five scenarios. It really does a nice job of walking you through it to the point where you'll learn everything. Gloomhaven/Gloomhaven Jaws of the Lion are intimidating to start but not that complex once you get into them and have the core concepts.
