The Official Board Gamers Guild of the 17th Shard


Recommended Posts

Alright, this thread has seen lot's of action now so I'm gonna say last call for Betrayal.

We'll play turn based, and I'll run everything myself. All anyone has to do is show up maybe once or twice a day.

If you don't know how to play we can teach you/link to the rulebook or a tutorial.

Right now we have 3/6 players.

Has anyone here played Power Grid? It's my favourite board game. It's so fun and there's so many ways to annoy the other players. Also @The Stormfather, you should probably be here.

I’ve played that game. It’s pretty fun, although I feel like I need a calculator to play optimally.

Yeah, sometimes when we're playing someone will just randomly stop the game to do calculations for a second. And my brother very recently started playing with a sheet of paper so he could write down his plans.

Yeah, adding together all the costs that you'll have to pay in a round in your head gets difficult, especially towards the end of the game.

Has anyone played a game called Steam? I've only played it once (the simpler version) but it was pretty fun.

I was obsessed with Monopoly as a smaller child, and while I'm not as big of a fan of it anymore, I do think it is kinda overhated.

Catan is also a really fun one, and another excellent board game (YOU GET TO BUILD SPACESHIP THINGIES AND GET THEM DESTROYED) is Galaxy Trucker.

I write it down in the weirdest ways and make it look super dumb with terrible handwriting mostly to confuse people.

I will get that started as soon as I get a bit of homework done. We will get a rulebook/tutorial in the PM for you.

Is that the new one or is it old?

I already mentioned, but I have BGA. I can't afford Tabletop Simulator, or I'd leap at the chance.

Anybody ever play code names I love to play it but it's so stressful all the time and you have to think what others will think you will think.  

Yeah I love Codenames! Usually I just play with my family so it's not too stressful. I really like the concept for codenames. It's kind of like dix it which is also really fun.

I know I'm necroing this, but I wanted to inform you all that the Jack Vasel Memorial Auction kicks off on Thurday. If you have the funds to bid for a game, I strongly recommend checking it out. The story for how the whole thing started is very moving and the funds go to help board gamers in their times of need.

P.S. This is hosted on BGG
