We played our first game of SETI last night.
Really enjoyable, kinda feels like peak Eurogame with elements of Brass, Terraforming Mars and Terra Mystica. Extremely well designed and lots of variety. Visually stunning. Looking forward to repeat plays #boardgames

First time playing a friend’s copy of Inis tonight.
I absolutely loved it, and the Irish mythology theme and glorious Jim Fitzpatrick artwork were the icing on the cake. I’ve got my own big box edition arriving hopefully in a few weeks! #boardgames

I think, based on the part number on the RMA confirmation, that AMD are replacing my faulty 7800X3D with a 9800X3D.
I was searching around whether this is a thing they do within warranty and Google’s AI is weirdly insistent that the Ryzen 9800X3D CPU does not, in fact, exist. (It very much does)

Xenomorph dice tower printed and painted by our guest player for yesterday’s session of Nemesis. Completely over the top and ridiculous but what a centrepiece for those high stakes roles!

I dropped a packet of connectors for IKEA Skadis pegboards on the way back to the car last night… so I just printed some instead

The absolute highlight of my day was watching a man paddle across the harbour in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland on an insulation board, using a 2x4 as a paddle.

I’ve been on a bit of a vinyl buying spree lately. Just had Clairvoyant by The Contortionist arrive from the US a couple of days ago

I got this 1987 vinyl reissue of Iron Maiden’s The Number of The Beast in a charity shop in Morningside for a fiver about 12 years ago, long before I owned a record player.
It sounds incredible. The dynamic range on it is something else - every instrument clear and distinct, bass punchy as hell.

Another couple of metal classic vinyl LPs.
Stratovarious - Destiny
Wintersun - Time 1
The Strato albums contains the ‘Visions of Destiny’ live album as a bonus, which is absolutely nuts considering the record
costs less than £20

The two latest additions to the vinyl collection - and part of a splurge. Two stone cold prog metal classics.
Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance and Dream Theater - Awake.

First playthrough of Nemesis last night.
What. A. Game.
The tension and emergent storytelling potential from the game are simply unparalleled. I did not make it off the ship - betrayed by another player and fed to the alien queen! - but had an absolute blast #BoardGames

I LOVE this. Just picked up the Bretonnian starter set for Old World and have been playing about with colour schemes
