This is the video I’ve been waiting for

[@dougmoore4653]

cascadia you just spend too much time doing the same thing over and over - I regret getting it

[@don_dad]

I dont play as many demos at Gen Con, always looking to buy. Thanks for the list.

[@tourguidechuck]

Hope to see you! Have watched you since the Dice Tower days.. I may or may not be dressed as the 5th or Second Doctor Who. I'd love to thank you for helping me start my board game collection/hobby!!!! Where in Texas are you? I visit my brother in Austin and often go to Tribe.

I was just in San Antonio for my Grandpa's funeral. I live in Washington State. But SA is my hometown!

[@heathersnyder2152]

I’m also excited to see DC Harley Quinn Pinball, Luffy’s Bento Box, Gnome Hallow & Fluffy Dragons. My kids attention is not very long so I look for colorful games & ones that are not too long ❤

[@jokerES2]

Manhattan Project: War Machine doesn't have anything notable to do with the previous Manhattan Project games. War Machine is not by the same designer, artist, or publisher as the original Manhattan Project, Energy Empire, or Minutes to Midnight. Grail did help to publish the Cold War expansion after the difficulty delivering that Kickstarter , so there is that tie-in, but that's the only thread. Unfortunate naming on this case.

[@janzealot]

Honored to see Manhattan Project: War Machine on this list! I will be at their booth to answer any questions anyone may have. 😊

[@GirlyGamer-BoardGameGran]

Hadn't heard of Looot before, so cheers for bringing it to my attention.

[@GamerLisa]

I love all your gaming picks. I love the cover with the cat. I'm a dog and cat person. Oh mandalorian 🎉

[@Jootie_de_Kop]

For some weird reason, when you mentioned Bang: dice explosion! I felt the urge to watch Tommy Cooper 😂

[@boardgamecloset]

Thanks for the video. Added a few to my list.

Great video. I have printing press. I'm hoping to get it to the table this week.

[@Steve-L]

The music sounds like Diablo 1, the original. I like it.

[@VengerSatanis]

VENGER CON III: Revenge of the OSR

[@Mokkel73]

Printing Press looks like a spiritual twin to Gutenberg.

[@geraldcollins5684]

Cascadia Rolling Hills/Rivers are not expansions for Cascadia. Instead they are separate roll and write (flip) games that can be combined with each other.

[@SamHealey6]

I knew that, Gerald! I must've misspoken during the recording. My bad! Thanks for being here!

[@SGTMaitiMaus]

Love the list Sam! Haven’t looked at the BGG list yet, but I imagine I’d come up with a lot of the same titles. Report back to us! Subbed!

[@SamHealey6]

Thanks for being here! Will do!

[@patrickaquilone]

Love you Sam!! Sooooo I see a Texas sticker on your computer. Aren’t you in like Washington or something?

[@SamHealey6]

@@patrickaquilone Yes, I’m LIVING in Washington State…But I’m FROM Texas…very important delineation. You can take the boy out of Texas, but you can’t take Texas out of the boy.

[@patrickaquilone]

@@SamHealey6 gotcha. I am technically from New Jersey but now live in Texas and have for the last twenty years. I think they have adopted me now :).

[@SamHealey6]

@@patrickaquilone They used to sell tshirts in TX that read, “I wasn’t born in Texas…but I got here as fast as I could!”

[@patrickaquilone]

@@SamHealey6 they still do.

[@whytemeet]

I'd also like to pick up the Mandalorian. I have a scheduled play of it that I'm looking forward to.

[@disneyrungeek9220]

Are you in San Antonio? I noticed your laptop sticker.

[@SamHealey6]

@@disneyrungeek9220 Coincidentally, I am in San Antonio right now, yes, but I live in Washington State.

[@disneyrungeek9220]

@@SamHealey6 awesome! I enjoyed the GenCon Recs! We really like Barcelona so will be picking up Windmills at the con. You need to check out the awesome LGS stores we have in town, Black Potion which is a bar/theatre/game store, Knight Watch Games and The Printed Meeple. We’ll be hosting game night at Black Potion tonight. Enjoy your visit!!!

[@garyvernet2914]

I am surprised by the "max 3 complexity" comment from a twilight imperium afficionado!

[@SamHealey6]

It’s more about what hits the table more often than not in my various gaming situations! Still a fan of TI4, though!

[@thewoopsik]

Thank you for the list.

[@SpaceSamuraiCowboy]

Thanks buddy. We miss you in South Florida

[@SamHealey6]

Thanks for being here!!

[@juvigoat2168]

Great list. Odd thought, I just see you looking great sitting in a red seat. 🤌🏼
