One day I’ll have the collection in a form I’m prepared to share with the world. Until then…
Here’s what I’m currently doing with the small boxes (“small” being defined as anything that’ll fit in these and still let me stack them). The crates are what Lidl’s cheap mushrooms come in, easy enough to clean.
I’m going to download that image as a point-in-case (yuk) example any time I get “why are you selling that, it’s so small?”—space being my primary reason for offloading games.
Small box games get annoying to store quickly, at least with my closet and self-imposed restraints.
So I moved The King is Dead from the Big Box Shelf, to the Small Box Shelf. Frees up a space on my Big Box Shelf helping with my target of reducing the big boxes I own.
Here’s an update of my collection. I haven’t posted one in a while because most of the time the games are strewn all over the apartment. This is not how I normally keep all the games as this is in my office. But I wanted a group picture and some exercise (carrying around games):
Not shown: a bunch of lesser loved games (most of which I plan on selling or trading) and Gloomhaven because that would have been just a bit too much exercise
After shuffling around the boxes, I am aware now that there is some space left for more games… so glad I still have a bunch of preorders and Kickstarters coming in over the next months.
Black Stories is not the expansion it contains all my Leaving Earth Stuff.
And I am still mad at Feast that I cannot fit Norwegians into the base box.
Also the latest Terra Mystica expansion didn’t fit inside the box and the nice insert for Seven Wonders has a hard time dealing with the last expansion.
There’s an awful lot of air in the Dwellings of Eldervale box between the plastic…
PS: please don’t look for any thematic organization. There is none. I just tried to fit as many games as possible into the picture
You can. I’ll find the BGG thread. Ditch the redundant items. Use the tray from the expansion (so many wasted space). I even combined the green + blue tiles and the orange + red tiles as they are all the same, just double sided.
But with the Danish expansion in coming, might as well keep it, I guess.
Everything rolls off the tongue better than “The Distance Between the Tips of the 10th Primary Feathers of Each Wing When Both are Fully Extended.” Imagine trying to market that title.
it’s not even a direct translation.
Flügelschlag is “the flapping of the wings” and it sounds somehwat poetic in my ears.
Wingspan translates to “Flügelspannweite” which is not a pretty word.
