Howdy Rahdo. Just wanted to thank you for your reviews. I've been watching for the last year; since I got back into board gaming after a long hiatus. We've taken you up on a number of your selections to include Splendor, Battle Line, Biblios, Elysium and held off on Five Tribes (the slavery issue). Keep them coming.

Do you have to read all the rules again if you want to play a game a second time. Or is there a system I do not know yet. I try to write down summaries of the rules but it is really time consuming.

Quick question, how do you get all these games to Malta? I suppose shipping is quite expensive and long... not to mention customs fees. Cheers
@rahdo
@rahdo 7 жыл бұрын
once or twice a year i try to organize huge game orders with others on the islands from philibertnet.com which has the cheapest shipping, and gives discounts for bigger $ orders. but most of the games i get i pick up in person at essen spiel and carry back :) customs fees aren't an issue if things are sent here from within the EU, but when sent from the US or elsewhere, yeah, that's a huge problem...

So, you think Poseidon's Kingdom is... swell? I am pleasantly surprised that you enjoyed Bottlecap Vikings! My girlfriend and I gave it a go once, before switching to Patchwork, and we thought it felt a bit too obvious what the best choice was. Maybe it was just the particular roundel set up we had, but we were constantly taking the same spot and apologizing for crashing our ships together. I'll have to give this one another go, it is certainly fast enough to try again.

I'm going to guess the games which are not on gone.rahdo.com got to go before getting a chance to play, except for these 3 for which i'd be curious to hear why they went: - Star Wars: Attack of the Clones - Star Wars: The Queen's Gambit - Thunderstone I'm guessing the first 2 had to go because of monetary constraints - but what about Thunderstone? Which was the game that took its/their place? The other ones are: - African Park - Bremerhaven - Castelli - Castle: Infighting & Intrigue at the King's Court - Dahschur - Drachen Schatten - Dragonscroll - Gold Ahoy! - Linwood - Renaissance Man - Rum & Pirates - Taschkent - Tinners' Trail Last but not least, I believe Mottainai, Puerto Diablo and the neat Escape Zombie City expansion also are new, but are not on the list of new games(though I don't know if you expect to list expansions). Since I'm watching all collection videos back-to-back, I have an additional question. Epic Resort in 2014) and Super Motherload (in 2015) were already there, but are listed as additions. What's up with them? Are these new editions?

the 2 starwars games were again ones that i let go without every playing. i had wanted to try attack of the clones, but i'd had it for 3+ years and hadn't gotten it to the table (because of the daunting german-only version) and so i said goodbye because i figured i'd never get around to it. queens gambit, it was just crazy to hold on to considering how much it went for on the aftermarket. thunderstone i still have. i like it a lot, but am considering selling it because of limited shelf space. but i still have it for now. - African Park - Castelli - Drachen Schatten - Dragonscroll - Gold Ahoy! - Linwood - Renaissance Man - Tinners' Trail all of these i got rid of without playing them first... too many games! - Bremerhaven - Dahschur - Taschkent these i still have here, like thunderstone. on the for 4sale pile - Castle: Infighting & Intrigue at the King's Court this i got rid of because at the time, i knew of a reprint that was coming, but that reprint has since been cancelled :( so it's an odd case. i would have kept the game if not for that confusion. - Rum & Pirates this can be found on the [gone] list under its german name: Um Ru(h)m und Ehre -Fairyland I'm not sure what you mean that it's a duplicate?

Read through a good chunk of that, most aren't really shockers given your predilections (you really should play Elder Sign with the expansions though), but I am not really sure what you mean about the loan systems breaking Le Havre. I admit I have only played maybe 4-5 times, but I always treated loans as things to avoid unless the bank was available. (Or whatever the building is that knocks out 2 loans)
@rahdo
@rahdo 8 жыл бұрын
+TheGreatHamEl the fact that you can take an unlimited amount of loans and your 'interesting' never increases beyond 1 frank makes them really wonky in my eyes and upsets the balance considerably.
@EclecticCamel
@EclecticCamel 8 жыл бұрын
+rahdo I had to re-read the rules as we play differently (not my game), and we were apparently using an official variant that increases the loan amounts but it's on a per player basis. I don't know if it would help as much in two player. Inland Port wasn't any good either? That's too bad. Haven't tried it yet, but my gf is getting more and more into two player games. Was considering adding that to the list but might wait.

RE: TIME Stories - i'm really tired of hearing you complain about the lack of two player support. Not all games are made for all player counts and if the designers don't want to make two player rules than so be it and as you stated in the video there are plenty of home brew rules for 2 players so use those instead of giving grief to the designers because they don't want to cater to your player count.

+xibalba1875 For a game like Time Stories where you have to play in multiple sessions to win, the 3-4 player requirement to play the game as it was intended is the hardest challenge in the game to overcome. I can't even get one friend to commit so I can't even play the bad version of the game. When you start talking about a game that takes longer than Risk to complete, the excuses of your friends can get pretty creative. Hence solo and 2-player variants are appreciated.
