Trans femme, board game designer and developer. Most recent game: Clans of Midgard.
I got an item from the US recently that had a border charge on it. It was a 60$ USD item, and the extra taxes were around 20$ CAD. But, I paid 42 because FedEx tossed a 22$ bundle of various brokerage fees on top. If UPS gives you a breakdown of that 42$ it may not *all* be tarrif, but some for sure

But also, classic game design arc:

Step 1: Make a game as an example of "bad design"
Step 2: The game is actually fun
Step 2: 👀 The game is actually fun
Step 4: 🤯

Oof that's rough.

Meanwhile, I'm the kind of player who believes that all you need to run a server is a click. Anything else is a bonus 😂 but also, I probably would never top 4. Too much of an adrenaline junkie to be competitive 😂

Same! I respected shapers when I played and often built shaper decks for fun theory craft, but the play style always felt too safe. I'd rather flip a coin to see where I'll get more brain damage from: ice or my own rig 😂
