I was gung-ho for a while, but Seafall really burned out my group. We got about 7 games in and gave up entirely. One player was so incredibly far ahead that even second place would have had to win almost every remaining game in the campaign to catch up. Not to mention players 3, 4, and 5. This has been my only negative experience with legacy games, and also as it happens my only competitive legacy game. I've shied away from Charterstone for this same reason, although I've heard better things about it than Seafall. All that aside, I've got a group lined up for Gloomhaven in the fall (just placed our preorder at CSI). I know quite a few people who are pumped for Betrayal Legacy, but Betrayal really wore out on me a while ago due to its sheer randomness, so I'll have to wait and see if I go for that one. Like Superheroes and Comics?

I still need to open Gloomhaven, but I am hesitant because I feel like it will suck up all of my time. I had been on a sports game kick of late with Title Bout II, Soccer City, Affentennis, and Mini Pro Golf. Now I am back to some miniature games, mainly Gaslands, Blood Red Skies, and Legion. I am waiting for Feudum, has anyone played it? It looks interesting. |

I'm planning on selling my Gloomhaven. My daughters and I played maybe 5 scenarios, and they stopped wanting to play any games maybe 9 month or more ago. I have no interest in playing it solo, and don't want to get into a campaign with it with gaming buddies, as it would be impossible to get people to commit to it. I also recently got into a DnD group, so that will scratch my dungeon crawl itch. I hope to get Legion played in June. I'm just about done painting my first core set and will get on my 2nd one, AT-ST and 2 Airspeeders afterwards. I have 2 buddies that bought what I did, or more in one case, but they have been too busy (or nervous) to get theirs even assembled yet. They aren't minis hobbyists like myself, so they are nervous about getting going with it. I told them to just do it and don't worry if the painting isn't perfect, no judging here. I did recently get the Gaslands rulebook, because a buddy has played it a fewtimes and loves it. Problem is that he's super busy with work and going back to school, that we haven't been able to get together to play anything. His schedule is such that he is occasionally able to play up in Chicago on Thursday nights with that group, but that's a bit far for me to do on a weeknight. When his schedule clears up, I really want to try Gaslands. I also recently gotten my The Drowned Earth kickstarter and had taken a break from painting Legion to get TDE models assembled, based and primed. Can't wait to give that a go. Still want to play more The Walking Dead All Out War, Frostgrave, Frostgrave Ghost Archipelago, Halo Ground Command, Rumbleslam, Guild Ball and Infinity. You should try Rumbleslam G-O, I think you'd like that one.

I have and do like Rumbleslam, although it is tough to get people to play. I grew up watching the NWA and then WWF, so it was a must have for nostalgic reasons. Wrestling was huge in Florida, especially near me because Dory Funk Jr's Funking Conservatory is in my home town.

I've only gotten to play it once so far, but liked it a lot, and the models are fun. My buddy Chris had picked up a couple teams at Adepticon and has one team painted, but he's the one that's been stupid busy with work and going back to school. I think he'll be done for the semester of school soon, so we might be able to catch up and get some minis gaming done. He also has some great Arena Rex models painted and I got to try that once in the fall and really like it. Want to play that again, as well as a game called Relic Blade that has as well.

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
After two solos, just played my first game of Alien Uprising with live players. I ran the game, and four others crewed the desperate crashed ship, and managed to repair and take off, winning the intro level scenario (#1). We had a good time with it, and expect to play it again, and even pimp it out a bit, perhaps using Star Trek minis.
I recently also got three of the seven small expansions, and they just put the alternate two sided Cliff Crash game map up for sale--previously it was a Kickstarter Exclusive only--you can get it on the shopping cart at mrbgames@gmail.com (supplies are supposedly limited, since the game came out in 2014), and has not been reprinted. |

This time of year has also put a crimp in my hobby time after work, as I've been having to mow the lawn twice a week, as well as other house and yard work.

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
I'm going back to playing Quartermaster General tomorrow. Looking over the boards at BGG, I discovered that a third small expansion for it, Prelude just finished its Kickstarter, so I did a Preorder which was linked to that KS page. I have playtested its first expansion, Air Marshal with the designer here, and also own the second, which is Alternate Histories.
Its a great game, which allows you to do all of WWII in 3 hours, mostly with cards, although there is a simple board with army and navy pieces as well! (Edit) We had a great 3 Player game, introducing one person to the system, which he loved. I'm thinking about getting the WWI version Quartermaster General 1914, as its got good press and an even higher rating on BGG. Last edited by chas; May 13th, 2018 at 06:00 AM. |
