The Arcs expansion campaign just launched, which is the first production under the new Buried Giant Studios. Picking it up because a) I’m a collectionist and b) I’d like to support them as I believe they’re also publishing the next Wehrlegig games as well.

I should probably take another crack at Arcs, haven’t played it enough to justify buying the expansion but maybe I can change that by the time the expansion delivers!

I’m expecting a big box of Root expansions to turn up any day now… which is a bit unfortunate since I am temporarily living in Bedford while my copy of Root is living in a storage unit in Leeds :thinking:

I’ve heard that every game is a train game if you try hard enough :locomotive:

I hope the big Container ship doesn’t get trapped in any Small Fjords.

@Whistle_Pig @Captbnut - I’m special. That’s why :innocent:

But seriously, this is the standard edition. If you two went for the deluxe edition, I heard that isn’t coming for a few months more. I could be wrong!

I think I went for the standard edition as well

Just got a tracking email - the universe obviously took note of my grumbling for once :laughing:

In that case, I’m going to grumble that I also backed the standard edition as well!

Wheel of Time boardgame coming to KS from Dire Wolf Digital (who did Dune Imperium + Uprising, and Clank).

Physical boardgame according to their website, no plans for digital version yet. (Although I’ve just seen they did the PC versions of Everdell and Cascadia, Ark Nova, Root, Sagrada…)

I got the email for Tales of the Arabian Nights. Can’t wait to get this out and have a report of this in the Last Played Game thread. I hope the changes are good, in practice.

Backed this one and got funded: Acres by Lucas McWhirter — Kickstarter

It’s a small time publisher, which is nice. And the logistics side is run by Allplay so I’m confident that they will deliver.

Only ones I have left:

  • Gods & Mortals - Wolff Designa is cool. Alas, they don’t do retail
  • Bagged & Boarded
  • Hanami - this one is close too
  • 18Svea + Ur: 1830 BC - Scott Petersen is just incompetent.
  • Stellar Ventures
  • Oath: Foundation expansion

With his last update, I got a refund on 18Svea.

I have

  • Gold Country
  • Bagged and Boarded

I nearly went $1 on Bitewing’s latest, but then I realised I’ll wait until Gazebo is back in stock (with proper boards!) and just buy it.

Hurrah!

Delivered with only a slight hiccup as yesterday’s postie didn’t seem to know how to operate the doorbell. I saw him wandering off down the road with the box but wasn’t quick enough to catch him before he got back in his van :woman_facepalming:
