Friday Night Shots (Saturday Edition) – Auction Games

Apologies for the bar being closed last night! It’s been a bit of a struggle the last couple of weeks getting stuff written as I’ve been suffering from a bit of imposter syndrome, wondering again what the heck I’m doing with this thing. I’m… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots (Saturday Edition) – Auction Games”

March 2024 Gaming

11 - BG Stats - Mar 2024 - Grid

February was a very slow month for gaming, but that was ok after a really fast January. However, March actually beat January like a rented mule! Ok, actually, there were fewer games played in January, but more plays (because I played a few games… Continue Reading “March 2024 Gaming”

New to Me – March 2024

Aloha! (Saying this for my friend who’s out on a cruise, even though she’s not technically going to Hawaii but somewhere just as warm). You may be wondering. “Dave, why are you wearing socks with sandals?” I would say that you should just keep… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2024”

Review – Shipwrights of the North Sea – Redux

What do you do if you love ships but you’re afraid of being out on the water so you can’t actually go sailing? Especially if you’re a Viking? You get a job building them instead of sailing them! That’s the premise of Shipwrights of… Continue Reading “Review – Shipwrights of the North Sea – Redux”

Friday Night Shots – Player Aids

Fantastic Factories - Player Aids

Welcome to another end-of-week social gathering where it’s just you and me! I’d say I’m enough to make it social. Wouldn’t you? Well, anyway, hop on a seat at the bar and let’s chat! I do have to say first, though, that you are… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Player Aids”

Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2024

It’s a few days after another great convention experience, so let’s talk a little bit about Terminal City Tabletop Convention – 2024. This year, it was held at the Vancouver Convention Centre which is right on the water in downtown Vancouver. It’s a beautiful… Continue Reading “Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2024”

Review – Underwater Cities

It would be cool to live on the ocean. Beachfront property, your back door opening right onto the beach, listening from your balcony to the ocean waves crash on the shore, watching the lightning from a storm out over the water. That would be… Continue Reading “Review – Underwater Cities”

Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 93 – Foxtrot Uniform

After a really bad (and late!) February episode of Tales from the Combat Commander ladder, we’re getting to March’s almost as soon as I’m done playing it! This was a much more satisfying game, and that’s whether or not I won (I’m not giving… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 93 – Foxtrot Uniform”

Review – Fire in the Library

Fire in the Library

I’m a pretty big fan of push your luck games. Hell, I play tons of games of Can’t Stop on Boardgame Arena, even though it’s not an awesome asynchronous game. I just can’t get enough with pushing my luck! I’m also a bibliophile. I… Continue Reading “Review – Fire in the Library”

Friday Night Shots – Friendship Killing Games

Diplomacy - Renegade

It’s another Friday and welcome to the bar! Funny how nobody else seems to be in here, but it is raining out there pretty good. Always happy to have just my friends in the bar with me, hanging out on a Friday night. Who… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Friendship Killing Games”
