Becoming Fantasy Map Makers in Cartographers! || AFK

[@urlor_jkron]

Love when you play Cartographers. I get to play along even if it's out of time. In the first game I managed 117 in the first game and 83 in the second game. Matt's the first person to out score me on stream. This was a fun one.

[@jokerES2]

For those playing along at home, I'd suggest the solo player rules for monsters. You attempt to place in the corner of the map indicated at the top of the monster card, and if you can't place there (because there are already filled in spots), you place as close to that corner as you can.

[@moonsmoocher]

I find the Cartographers AFKs to be among the coziest of the show. Is it because I can play at home? Perhaps. I just think the energy this game brings to the crew is really nice.

[@PartisanGamerDE]

For Games, definitely a Necromunda campaign for AF40K.

[@sandmanlives3]

Excellent, as always. Thank you. 26:13 Beej, you are doing great!

[@JamesNettum]

Thanks for showing off a Wisconsin publisher! Cartographers is a family favorite in my household.

[@ThunderworksGames]

Thanks for playing Cartographers, fellas! 😎

[@kaijuemperor]

In terms of games I'd love to see you play. Love for Dominion to come back. And the villian expansion of Red Dragon Inn. If you haven't already played them I'd also love to see Splendor, Sheriff Of Nottingham, and maybe the Dark Souls board game

[@Defender-hi3vb]

I'm pretty sure that there's a stream of the Dark Souls Board Game

[@soratorb]

For anyone playing along with Cartogrophers, there are two important rule changes when playing solo: * Since you don't have an opponent to place the monster for you, instead, look at the top right corner of the monster card. One of the squares is colored in (for Goblin Attack, it's the bottom right square). Starting in that corner of your map, and moving using the direction shown on the left of the card (counterclockwise, so from the bottom right, moving up), try to place the monster tiles exactly as shown on the card, without rotating or flipping them. If you can place them in that corner shown, so do. If you can't because some of those tiles are filled, move as shown (in this case, move up one tile) and try again. Keep going until you place the monster. If you can't place it anywhere in that first column, then move over one row and try again (in this case, the second-rightmost column, starting at the bottom). If you can't place them anywhere on your map, you get to ignore that monster card entirely. * The scoring cards each have a number on the bottom right. Add them up. That's your score target for this game. For this one, it's 16+18+24+24=82. The higher you exceed that score, the better you did!

[@ThirdWiggin]

What a fun game! And a great group of players too

[@ImpossibilitySpace]

I would love to see y'all play Azul. I got it this past holiday season and it became a fast favorite of my family.

[@ghirathim]

Played along at home. Was playing easy mode the first round where I got to pause and decide, so i got 136...unsurprisingly when I decided to play along at speed I got 78 so only coming in third there. Lots of fun!

[@Cwefr]

I would love it, and lose control of some bodily functions, if you guys gave Space Base a try. It's my all time fave table top game that basically runs as a "Build your own slot machine" with plenty of dice rolling and a need for constant engagement.

[@LokNWykLeer]

I'd love to see more Smash up and Epic Spell Wars!

[@IronBeard66877]

I recently purchased, and started playing with my family, the Ticket to Ride legacy game (Ticket to Ride: Legends of the West). We've really been enjoying it. It might be cool to see you guys play it as well. Though I guess that'd be a Long Game thing... Hmm... The Frostpunk Board game, then.

[@gavinli1368]

I was also suggesting Ticket Legacy when I was watching this live. Some peeps also agreed that it’d be a Long Game but that the Kill Team league should probably wrap up first.

[@tylercosta6109]

Not sure which games are best for the show, but I love the games Millenium Blades, Dinosaur Island Rawr and Write, Cryptid, and the Stardew Valley board game. I’d love to see any of those featured.

[@AzazelBlau]

Would love to see y'all do a 40k Crusade league, some more Lorcana, and perhaps revisit Tokaido.

[@Vequenor1]

My headcanon is that the cartographers are mapping Beejland.

[@hominustdog]

I'm not sure if it's available in the Americas, but Cascadia is a great game that I feel would fit well for this show.

[@MrFlargBlarg]

It is! Cascadia (the real bioregion that the game is based on) encompasses Victoria BC also, so it's very much LRR's part of the world. I would second it as a suggestion.

[@lukeisstrange1533]

I would like to see you guys trying The Witcher: Old world. Just recently got it and all the times I played it, it was a blast and turned into one of my playgroup faves with all the roleplaying and decisionmaking you can still do. Even if you're losing it is so much fun and I bet its also really entertaining for the people watching at home!

[@SAJewers]

In terms of AFK Game suggestions, TriBond would be quite fun. If you want to bring back Ticket To Ride, there's a fan-made Canada Expansion available online you could try. I've also heard both Rock Runners Inc and Atlantic Chase are also good.

[@Rolfus187]

Hearing this mentioned in the stream: I would be extremely excited so see some more Flesh and Blood! As a long time magic player, Flesh and Blood has really excited me recently, as I have never played a TCG so different from the "classical" MTG formula. Also, the Flesh and Blood community is just amazing!

[@savewithteak]

I am planning on purchasing a copy and I think you all may enjoy the Last of Us flavoured Escape the Dark Castle game from Themeborne. Play in your favourite post apocalyptic USA as Ellie, Joel, and friends as the attempt to find safety

[@stargazer2687]

Have you guys played Splendor yet? If not, that's always my go-to game to get new gamers into gaming. Also, "Deadly Dowagers" has been a hit at our last 4 monthly game days!

[@BootOnFoot]

Bang! is a personal favorite board game, and think you would all have a fantastic time with it! The XCOM board game for sure I want to see, as well as maybe the Werewolf Legacy game? I feel like your group could do an amazing playthrough of it, though it does require a big group

[@feywanderer89]

Please folks. I beg you. I wanna see yall play some Champions of Midgard.

[@JPVersus_]

I'd LOVE to see Pandemic Legacy Season 2 with the original cast! I just finished binging it again during the Holidays! Hands up for HO CHI MIN CITYYYYY!!!!

[@DrezoArt]

I’d love to see Dice Throne again!

[@crabvtuber]

for games i'd love see y'all play, and in the vein of war games, star wars: legion was a game i briefly got into for my first dable with miniatures. the minis were cool but i never really got to see it played much.

[@phycofox858]

I'm so excited about by law 2

[@SylHar7]

I would love to see you guys play "spyfall", specially as a big group.

[@elizabethellis450]

Another game of quacks maybe with a expansion might be fun

[@fehlbrandschwele]

yes! more play along!!!

[@estebanrodriguez5409]

I took a coloring book this year, not everything is painted and I'm still not finished. Some of the pictures I'm probably not going to ever paint to be honest, I have things I like and things I don't and that's oooookay.

[@aldaddow1767]

Love to see AF40K to try out Warcry.

[@sirKonradical]

Also Ben looks like DJ in the thumbnail

[@SievertSchreiber]

Hero Quest?

[@doublemaycare7171]

I got 134 on the first round. This is a good game.

[@naomilangevin3944]

What's the point of the coins? Do they contribute to the final score? It didn't seem like they did but they have to do something.

[@ChrisWood]

For a game to bring back: Mansions of Madness, please please pretty please. 🙏 For a new game, CMON is releasing a Metal Gear Solid game that I’d love to see you play.

[@BornPhoenix1]

id love to see more star wars xwing games

[@TheGreatNal]

Would like to see you guys play the Red Rising board game!

[@Thrythlind]

Sentinels of the Multiverse: Definitive Edition More Shadow over Westminster Touch of Evil (Flying Frog Games) Terraforming Mars Pandemic Legacy Season 2

[@snvhill]

Just to see how you like or dislike some different mechanics: Rise of Augustus Seriously, the only game I've ever seen so far with this mechanic. Strategic BINGO. I doubt it's going to reach the level of Cartographers or Root with you guys but I think it would amuse everyone to play it through once or twice And Kingsburg. MAKE SURE YOU USE THE TOKENS FOR MILITARY OPTION if you do. I think it's now part of the base in most modern copies but I haven't checked recently. I think it's an interesting game but the purely random military roll in the original base game was silly.

[@clockworkcthulhu8195]

One of my favorite games of all time is Sentinels of the Multiverse and the remaster just made it better so I would really like to see you play that game it's a really nice superhero cooperative card game in a really nice superhero world that is not one of the big two.

[@runekp10]

I know the game can take a few hours, but would love to see you play Arkham Horror 3rd edition (the non card game one) - have played it myself a few times and has quickly become a favorite of mine, its a blast, even when you lose - which my group have only tried so far, it's a tough game

[@ajthedreamsculptor1770]

Game 1 10+21+23+69(nice)=123 I was able to finish off with 7 borderlands and upped my villages from 8/5 (10pt) in round 3 to 11/10 (20 point) in round 4. Game 2 13+17+30+26=86 😵 No comment

[@morridin7766]

For game suggestions it might be fun to play your game of betrayal legacy.

[@IsaacMyers1]

Red dragon inn but in boss mode

[@EvaSharkette]

LANCER. Please PLEASE play LANCER, best mech tabletop RPG, I love it so much.

[@CBG232x5]

Please more Jacob Burgess!

[@Firerounds]

Dominion
