I got my copy of The Old King's Crown this week and I just finished setting up my first game. I have a feeling this game is going to be sitting on my table for a while.
Its probably going to take me a week just to look at all the details on every card

Played a game of Catan Starfarers tonight. This version of Catan is my favorite for 3 reasons:
1/You can't block others from expanding. (One of my biggest complaints of the original)
2/You get a cool upgradeable ship! 🚀
3/The different alien upgrades you can acquire when docking trade ships. 👽

We finished our first 4 player game of Arcs tonight and had an epic finish on the 5th round.
Game ended 26-25-14-13
We missed on scoring ambitions 4 times because we kept getting 3 way ties.
It was a long game but worth it in the end.
Thank you @leder.games for the great memories!

So I know I might be a bit late to crowdfunding since I've been in this hobby for a couple of years but I got my first Kickstarter this week!
Rebirth!
I honestly didn't think I would enjoy the experience but I have to give credit to the crew at Mighty Boards for doing such a fantastic job!

So I finally got some alone time to sit down and play Legacy of Yu! So I'm 3 games in and still 0-3 but I think the game finally "clicked" for me as I was thinking through my last turn, Now I can't get enough. What a fun puzzle!

I love how Quacks of Quendlinburg teaches my kids about making safer decisions early to stay ahead on the track instead of pushing their luck to get the die roll. #weekendatthecamp

I got a new phone! Someone stole my last one ... I'm glad I saved my blue sky password.
So yeah getting your phone stolen really sucks.

Got to introduce Wingspan to 2 of my friends today! This one is a family staple. My wife and I are always happy to get this to the table. It's so fun to find new bird cards with new abilities I haven't seen before. I must not shuffle my cards well enough to get around to all of them I guess. Lol

Add this to the many thing I'm late to the party for.
@boardgamehottakes.bsky.social Tim, you mentioned this feature last episode, and I finally found it. Now the 5 minutes of dead *no signal* won't affect me on the long drives.

Listening to @boardgamehottakes.bsky.social BGGCon episode! Tim, I'm glad to see you enjoy Age of Innovation so much more another time around. Do you think the in person tactile feel of it also helped? I know how boring some games can feel on BGA or TTS if it isn't well implemented.
