Last game you bought?

After looking for them forever, I finally found both Expansions packs for Nusfjord with the 4 expansion decks that were included in the Bigbox. And I even found them in German to match my game. Yay. And cheap! So exciting.

(I kind of had to add some more stuff to the order obviously, so I also ordered the Wyrmspan expansion and the 2nd part of the Lotr Trick Taking game)

I’m at … 1? Kanban and Gallerist aren’t that hard to table. Lisboa is. I’m eyeing speakeasy and on mars but so far I’ve remained sensible on this point.

Now you just need the boardbento insert (from Washington State, US, so simple to get) and you’ll have the nicest Nusfjord around.

My Nusfjord actually has one of my first (and probably best) self-built inserts. So I am quite happy. I just have to put the decks in the ā€œdeck boxā€ and I can play. Well as soon as I have time for that anyway.

Finished my collection of Ashes Reborn. I know I can’t really justify it, but the more I play the game the more I enjoy it. I suspect I should sell off my Netrunner stuff and concentrate on this even though I usually prefer an SF theme.

I haven’t seen this stated explicitly: each of these packs (for which you already need the bigger box Red Rains: The Corpse of Viros) contains a Chimera and its associated cards (which can to some extent be mixed between sets); four Phoenixborn (same card powers and art, just a new quote) with new Uniques; and a variety of new general cards. (Some of the cards are errata-ed versions of old ones; I think that’s Brennan and Rimea among the Phoenixborn.).

The left box is from Sentinels of the Multiverse: Disparation since all the content from that fits into the original two boxes. Cards there are the various Chimera across the top (and their special dice and tokens on the left), Phoenixburn and uniques down the left side, and in the lower right box the Adventuring Party 1 precon decks I’m not currently playing.

In the original Ashes box on the right: all the other dice and tokens, and all the non-unique cards that aren’t part of an Adventuring Party 1 deck. (Auxiliary cards, which can have different names, are filed under their master card: for example, Summon Ghostly Mount can variously bring in Pale Steed Mount, Spectral Charger Mount, or Nightmare Mount, so they’re all clumped together because they get used together.)

Finally the remaining cards are in a ā€œtournamentā€ box, in this case the Jericho Reborn one, with the Adventuring Party 1 deck and summonables for Brennan, the dice, and some tokens.

I still need to get FoMC and EoA. And actually get around to playing some of them! Not to mention how long it’s been since I actually played Ashes as a 2-player game …

Oopsie. Probably somewhat for collector’s purposes.

  • Haggis prompted this as it appeared on multiple 2 player listings recently.
  • Mythical Dice might be just the thing my partner enjoys? (Would have been available here for the same price but this pushed the order into "no shipping territory)
  • I totally blame Schadenfreude on @lalunaverde also how can I not own a game with such a good German title that is not even from Germany.
  • Tezuma Trick is an experiment and it looks pretty.
  • Yokai Septet is one I missed when it was last available.

The same shop also had more games I chose not to buy:

  • Nokosu Dice. I still have not played my homebrew version made up of a copy of Parade and some dice.
  • Trick Takers. The others all have a chance to see play even if it is low. After reading comments and reviews I think this would purely have been bought ā€œto ownā€

This is a new shop specializing in card games and especially imported ones. The imported ones are not cheap. I consider this a treat for making good and positive progress at work.

Could do. I’d have to a) relearn how to play, and b) sort out my table so I can lay out cards :laughing:

Kienda’s closing. Found some stuff. Yes, I know I shouldn’t buy because it’s cheap…

  • Dying Message - new Oink game
  • Acquire 60th Anniversary Edition - it was nearly half price.
  • Magic Money - 2 quid auction game
  • Get on Board: Paris and Rome - used to yap about this as Let’s Make a Bus Route
  • and a megaton of Arkham Horror: the Card Game card packs

I’m officially enrolled in shopping therapy this year (I swear the stress is getting less)

I’ve already played Small Fjords twice. Travel sized hexagons :star_struck:

PS all unshrinked or is it unshrunk or deshrinked?

Well, I’ve preordered The Old Kings Crown, supposed to be back in stock at the end of March. But another site says it will be coming in June/July.

Had my chance to buy it too, waited too long (I was watching reviews).

Bought some solos to try from the same publisher of Hercules and the 12 [Labours]. They all come from the same open box called Tiny Game series vol 1

  • Defrag
  • Sirens
  • 16 Candies

EDIT: ah they aren’t solos, they can be played up to 2. And 16 Candies is a multiplayer 2 to 4
