Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Finally got around to trying the Valeria: Card Kingdoms solo variant, and it's a lot of fun! I like it as much as multiplayer. It adds nice mechanics for an evil Duke that will score against you at the end of the game, while he uses the Monsters to attack Citizens and Domains to try to end the game and/or score points. I just had a really good game where I set my high score of 140 (to the evil Duke's 68 ). I had a steady early game, then focused on killing two Monsters per turn once the resources were flowing. Got a bunch of Domains near the end since I had so much gold, and the evil Duke scored Citizens and not much else, since I was only a couple turns away from emptying the last Monster stack!

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Two games of Rising Sun yesterday. One 3 player game first, then a 4th player finally got out of the house for a 4 player game. Since this was our first time learning the rules I left out the extra Gods rules/minis expansion as well as all the extra monster cards (only using the 8 monsters that came in the base game box). We also just randomized the clan selection with a d6 roll (included the Fox Clan). I played the Bonsai Clan first, then the Dragonfly clan second. Had a surprise victory in the first one, but wasn't really close in the second even though I really liked that clans special power. Everyone had a good time and lots of talk about playing it again soon. All the cardboard pieces upgrades came in the 6th player expansion and I really felt they are well worth it should you have missed the kickstarter. The political tiles are really cool and the battle flags are handy for game play.

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Today will be my sixth game of Rising Sun! Haven't won any yet, but love it. Everyone who plays wants to do it again. We're now using all of the additions except for Kami Unbound.
We did a learning session of Pendragon where we only got through one Epoch. The rules are quite detailed. We have another date planned where we're going to go for a two Epoch short scenario. |

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
Got to my first board game cafe, a place in Cleveland (Ohio City) named Tabletop. Such a cool place, with great atmosphere for game playing and a friendly, helpful staff. Nice game selection with good food and beer on draft.
Took the whole family and played lighter, family-friendly games: IceCool, Sushi Go Party!, The Table & Chair Game, Lazer Riderz, Red7, Ninja Camp, and The Climbers. A great time! Wish we had something like this closer to home. This was a three-hour, weekend get away trip, but it's exciting that more of these are popping up. We got there at 11am Saturday morning and it was busy the whole time until we left around 4:30pm. Very cool to see all different kinds of people enjoying games together. |

I *love* Dungeon Petz. Haven't played in ages because nobody will play with me, but it's one of the treasure I won't part with.

No. I only dimly remember that there is one; I don't know anything about it.

Re: What Board Game Are You Currently Playing?
With two people down with the flu (Kolakoski and Taeblewalker), what was supposed to be a 5 Player Rising Sun turned out to be my first 3 Player, which was fine. The only player count I haven't done yet would be a 6 Player! I continue to keep love the game and keep losing. Its a challenge.
I finally got a live opponent for 878 Vikings when one of my new BGG pal had to go home after our game to teach his own group to play RS! So Sherman Davies and I had a good time and he totally cleaned my clock. It was a great day for losing. Go figure. To follow our adventures mostly in Scape, click on my new signature for our New York City Gang of Four play group thread. There is plenty to see there! Box art has now been posted for 2018's two new upcoming Star Trek Ascendancy expansions from the annual NY Toy Fair: The Vulcans and The Andorrians. Fans of ST Enterprise will know that the latter are repeating characters, and lots of fun. They're the opposite of Vulcans, with whom they fought a war, but better drinking buddies, because they enjoy their emotions! We did a four player learning session for the more complex/detailed Pendragon: The Fall of Roman Britain, the brand new GMT COIN series game. We had fun but didn't get through too much. We'll be meeting again in March with our new understanding of it. The soon to be published 1.0 Rules for Big Trouble In Little China are now up in the Files section on Boardgamegeek. The Pre-Order Gold Box Edition is now expected in late March/April. |

Looking forward to starting 7th Continent this weekend. I am also playing Kingdom Death Monster even though I have no real interest in it. I guess it is the price you pay to have gaming buddies.
