Great video as always !!!

Have you got the chance to play the expansions ?

I just got my copy of Jaws and am starting out with a Hatchet character named Jerry Sienfeld. I imagine an over-exaggerated, cartoonish, caricature of Jerry's face occasionally peaking out from the shadow of that hat and duster as he throws an axe deep into someone's frontal lobe. My demolitionist is named The Czar of Heavy Splooge, which is basically just what that character is out of the box. I mean, just look at him. He's a pervy looking little fella who takes out his enemies and obstacles by unleashing a heavy discharge on them. This is why I have to play a solo campaign. 😂😢😂 Regardless, the class tips are sincerely appreciated and will be noted for one Mr. Seinfeld going forward.

I'd love an update. "The State of Haven Today." Have you checked out the Frosthaven play surface books or solo scenarios? Do we know which production errors have been fixed and which remain? Any hints at what's next? My dream is Spacehaven, featuring a ship phase, which isn't just movement and combat, but also resource management for fuel, repairs, upgrades, crew, and weapons. It'd also have a planetary exploration phase featuring classic Haven combat and gameplay, but with a new, shiny, sci-fi coat of paint. Want to import an old Haven character? You'd simply have to play a special scenario where that character somehow gets transported through time into Spacehaven.

Bro thank you fro this! Going away for a week with my family and I wanted to bring an expansion since we all love the game just wasn't sure what the easiest on ramp to one would be but this helped a ton!

Best way to play Catan is to mix seafarers and knights and cities imo.

I picked up Horizons for £21 as the full game is £65, I’m ok with this because I don’t wanna invest a lot of money incase my wife doesn’t like it, plus it’s a smaller table presence and slightly less complicated

Everyone RAVES about Frosthaven. I played Gloomhaven a few times and just couldn’t quite get into it. 😔 I cut my teeth on HeroQuest/Mutant Chronicles as a kid and Descent during college, so maybe I’m just looking for a more classic approach? KD:M is my current heavy game.

I'm glad I had 3 folded space inserts to build tonight XD

As soon as I saw the video title, I knew Dominion was going to be on there. I haven't played it myself, but I can't deny how important it is to the deckbuilding genre as a whole. Thanks for the video!

Thank you for saving me some money. I am canceling just in time

What’s the name of the anime game you mentioned in the mtg section during the “stack” mechanic? Re;ACT - The Arts of War Is that it?

Suprised no kdm. I feel like its the big gateway game that created the boss battle genre and still relevant to this date

To be honest, it took me too much time to learn it. Yet , it is my favorite game ever

Where is the parchment and red ink in the GF page. That would be cool.

Once a player understands the game and knows how to negotiate then there is little actual luck in the game. Players can ask other players for information on a safe leader in exchange for spice to avoid an assassination, players can bribe atreides to know what a card up for auction is, bribe to see the spice blow deck or the storm deck. Players can bribe each other to sweaten an alliance deal or use truthtrance to prevent a player from lying. Game is all about information and how to obtain it.

Just amazing. Great work!

I love the Mythic Battles system and play this and Pantheon regularly.

YOU ARE AWESOME! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

"bingus bungus omega nutty cobble shot" Loved the review! Thank you! Looks like there's some real potential here.

Hey everyone, does anyone have a link or something to the fan made rulebook he mentioned? Thanks in advance.

I'm playing campaign with intercessor. It is a lot harder which while unbalanced with the game in general could actually be seen as more of a pro than a con.

Great to see you back with your punchy lists

I love the AOE 2 sound track in the video

What kind of magnets did you use, and how did that design for magnetic arm rests work out?

Such a good review!!!!!!

Can we get this game in Europe?

Runequest is a TTRPG, as is Gloomhaven. Just ask Zargon.

Incredible review. I learned a lot.

Despite mixed reviews, I was initially hesitant. However, after an epic session of Last Light, I had a fantastic time! The components are solid, especially the ship minis. Adding more races for players to choose from is an easy change. I'll also consider potential tech adjustments, which shouldn't be too difficult. As a big fan of intense, head-to-head battling games like Blood Rage, TI4, and Eclipse, this game is right up my alley :) If I had the luxury of a day to myself, single and without kids, TI4 would be my go-to. But in my current reality, Last Light slots perfectly into my gaming schedule :)

I’m here for the heroscape mention! Having enough of the classic game is pretty key to enjoying it unfortunately. There’s some really fun armies, they just get sooo expensive. I’m definitely getting the new stuff, but I’mostly just excited for the synergies that will mix with the old stuff I already have.

Tbh I don’t think there are any legit successful board game makers that have not played chess.

This gives me big Darksiders vibes (and not just because of the theme but also the art style and player abilities) which is very cool, but the game itself doesn't really seem like my thing. Feels a little generic. It speaks to your review quality that I watched the whole video regardless!

Why are there blurrs

This review was exactly what I needed to justify my feelings about the 3rd edition. I've had multiple friend groups be introduced to modern board games with Betrayl (2nd) and when we decided to try out this 3rd edition, the Haunts all felt a bit stale in comparison. We've yet to have a Haunt that envoles the blend of campy horror of 2nd edition. (Spoiler Alert for 3rd edition: Our first scenario was that the real estate agent for the house we were all touring was trying to kill everyone with a demon. Basically the Haunt revealer was thematically killed and took over a demon, and there was really no special mechanics. And thats been a theme for many of the scenarios. The mechanics are streamlined, but it comes at the cost that many Haunts end up feeling similar. Also, the Characters are all pretty balanced; Oliver "Swift" is supposed to be 3rd editions Flash, but his speed is the same as 3 other characters at 5! And they got rid of the Crazy Man and Scared Girl Omens!

Can i get clarification at 15:59 . You mentioned an opening hand of four cards. I read through the manual and googled for the answer but the only response i got was your initial hand is only 2 cards, one from each event deck. Can someone chime in with the answer?

I love trick-taking games, which is why Cat in the Box and Skull King were instant buys for me after one play.

Let’s gooooooo lifestyle game reviewed! Loving your style Daniel. One day I hope you rep some googly eye Scoundrel merch. Like a watch where her arms are the hands of the clock.

The underlying logic of the game is unbelievably bad, excessive repetition, lack of meaningful choices in the story... The most overrated game since years.

Yeah the Rulebook is definitely my biggest con for the game. But I love Angels in Fantasy settings, so this really is right up my alley. And yes base rings would instantly fix the problem of distinguishing the Angels on the board.

Great list! I agree bout Bridge being most influential card game. I think Poker takes the top in us culture, including the betting/gambling mechanic which adds a unique element since the stakes can change hand to hand. Bizrre you can win big on a worthless hand, and lose big on a powerful one. Incredible game. Another important influential game mechanic is the 'race' game: Sorry, Pachisi, and Backgammon still played by millions in the Middle East. Monopoly is probably a variation of this with the added commerce/trade element. Racing to Purchase the most properties.

Legacy games made the box of unlocked modular content with new rules a popular design even in non-Legacy games. - Mechs vs. Minions - Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle - Mind MGMT - Gloomhaven (which is a wannabe legacy game) - Oathsworn The influence of Legacy games on the hobby isn't simply more Legacy games.

Kreigsspiel

Anyone ever played Panic Station?

Squeal little piggy, squeal. 🎻🎻

Review Middara please :)

1:24:32 is peak funny when you cut to ashton, sitting in the corner, doesnt mean anything. :D

I feel like 1829/1830 for economic and stock games and Agricola, or something else, for modern euros should've been on there. One of either Gloomhaven, Magic, or heroquest could go I think. I don't think your choices are bad, but just have knid of a crimped view of the whole genre. An adventure game, a tricktaker, area control, roll & move/trading, TCG, deckbuilding, stock game, modern euro, party/social game, one more? i feel like delineating the important subgenres or most prominent mechanics first would help.

Love this game. Been collecting everything over the years and own it all now. I didnt deal with big monsters at all. I viled the tips off and glued them on transparant bases, so much better! As for checking their stats, there’s a perfect fine summary document to print on bgg. Only con remaining is that searching tiles can be a hassle, especially with more expansions.

Engine Building and Worker Placement seem to have a bigger impact on modern strategy games. Most games I’ve played have that mechanism somehow. Maybe I’m biased based on the games I play.
