    We got Wingspan for Christmas, had one game of it so far, seems very good. They have a "swift start" pack that brings you through the first round of turns, it's very good for learning the rules, had a pretty good grasp after that.

    Yeah, I got GoT Cluedo as a gift last year.

    Picked up 7 wonders Duel. Not a new game by any stretch of the imagination, but a good two player game none the less.

    Got Everdell from the missus for Christmas. It was a neat surprise, didn't expect it. Game is quite interesting and the artwork is gorgeous! So far played once and can't wait to play it again.

    I know it is nearly a decade old but I got Castle Ravenloft for Christmas, first real experience with a D&D board game for many a year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,433 ✭✭✭NomadicGray


    Im going to concentrate on some 40k this year I think. I picked up Blackstone Fortress before Xmas, have done half a game solo and fairly enjoyed it, as a plus I got some very nice miniatures with it that will go in to my Chaos army.
    I received Posthuman Saga a few months back and really dont think its for me so that and a few others might be going up for sale, try make some space.

    Got Undaunted:Normandy a while back.

    Had great fun playing it , simple enough rules but very engaging.

    Couldn't decide between Brass Birmingham and Brass Lancashire. Watched several reviews and settled on Brass Lancashire, seems a tighter set of rules and more passive aggressive with the ports, rather than the cut throat nature of the Beer in Birmingham.

    Hope to get it to the table soon enough.

    ASL rules and Beyond Valor (2nd hand)

    Really enjoyed it and will be playing again this weekend. Just played the first 2 missions. Plenty of scope for tactics (more so once we get used to the rules etc) and seems to introduce the more advanced units as the campaign progresses.

    Enjoy!

    Just order the Nemesis 'Gameplay All-In Pledge' . I originally bailed on the first Nemesis kickstarter at the last minute and have regretted it, so let the FOMO take hold this time around.
    Closes Friday for anyone else wanting to join me with massive FOMO!

    A new board game and model online shop has opened up in Mayo - they have a nice selection and some good prices. I'm thinking of picking up Alone from them neverboard.ie/

    My Wave one of Battletech Kickstarter bits has arrived.

    While picking up My First Carcassonne to play with my nieces, nabbed the modular board and some extra Automa decks for Scythe. Really need to get it to the table more.

    I've bounced off this game so many times. Still determined to play it at some stage, but it's been a year or two just trying to learn the rules :eek:

    Ordered Core Space starter set and the Deluxe Rule Book this evening. From my bit of homework it seems right up my ally, even if set up looks a bit fiddley.
    It'll mostly be for solo play I imagine but with such a long lockdown now I'm dying to get out and meet some actual people for games when we can.

    So anyone down Cork way send me a message when we're all de-Nurgled.
