What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?

[Lord Pyre]

Got to play Sherolock Holmes Consulting Detective (Jack the Ripper) and Fate of the Elder Gods this weekend!

Played some Catan, Dominion (Guilds, Cornucopia, Prosperity, and 2nd edition base).
It went over very well, so I picked up the 2nd edition Prosperity pack too and am eager to play it.

Also, Disney Sorcerer's Arena is a surprisingly solid skirmish game.

SiegeStorm: SiegeMode
Been exploring the solo mode. It's not bad, though the 1vs1 is clearly better.

* For over a decade I've been hoping that one of my kids would catch the fever for one of the waaaay too many head-to-head card games I have. Clearly not going to happen with 'Wave 1' now 20, 17 and 14, but I do have hope for 'Wave 2,' 4 and 11mths, even if I have a bit of waiting to do.

Spring and Autumn: Story of China is due here today. We'll be playing our first game with people who have played Hellenica: Story of Greece (its series predecessor) on Sat. Mar. 28 in a 4 Player. I'll be offering it again in April for newbies to get on board!

Besides waiting the usual Kickstarter year for the game's development, I had input into the subject and some of the philosophies of that famous era (800 BCE), when people like Confucius and Lao Tzu were alive and developing their schools of thought. Later I playtested the prototype online with the designer.

As an expensive "overproduced" game its literally a work of art! I'm getting an all in package with the minis and the game mat as I did for Hellenica.

We had a 3 Player as our first game and we all loved the design! Hooray!

Unmatched now has a digital edition! With asynchronous multiplayer! Hit me up if you want to play; I just bought it ($8 ) but it looks pretty sweet. Only $12 to get all of the "season 1" DLC which at least triples the number of available heroes (once they finish releasing it).

Here is one I am thinking of getting (looking for thoughts). Mechs vs Minions. Does anyone play and what are your thoughts?

Just played my fifth session of Spring and Autumn: Story of China. I've now played each player kingdom once.

A pal is coming back from a Memoir 44 Con in Chattanooga with a set of the maps he played there. We'll start in on them on Saturday.

My group played a 4 person game of Scarface 1920 last weekend. I kickstarted the game but this was the first time we got a chance to try it out. We did a tutorial partial game at first just so everyone could learn the rules as their are a lot of options in the game. Once you start to play the game though you find out that you only have a few options per turn to choose from, they just change from turn to turn. We then played a full game and had a good time. Everyone agreed it was one we can see ourselves playing again soon, and we may even get in another game this weekend. Learned quite a bit from the first game so I'm interested to see how people play differently the next time.
