Boardgame Geek Top 100 – Played or Play? 100-91

It’s no secret that I’ve been in a bit of blog doldrums over the last couple of weeks. The social isolation and not playing many games (none until last weekend, actually) except the apps that I do asynchronously, plus getting really busy at work… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 100 – Played or Play? 100-91”

New to Me – January 2020 (Part 1)

It’s a brand new year! And this time, I can actually say that while talking about 2020 games (unlike last month). January was a busy month for new-to-me games. I went to two conventions on back-to-back weekends (that was a lot of fun but… Continue Reading “New to Me – January 2020 (Part 1)”

FFG Announces Fallout Shelter: the Board Game

I’ve been a big fan of the Fallout video game series since Fallout 3 all those many years ago (I missed the buzz when the first two came out). I love the series so much that I was really happy to hear about the… Continue Reading “FFG Announces Fallout Shelter: the Board Game”

Star Wars Outer Rim from Fantasy Flight Games

Something looks familiar. Something coming from Fantasy Flight Games in the Star Wars universe sometime in the next few months. Late last week (Editor – Late to the party as usual!), FFG announced Star Wars: Outer Rim, a game where you can play as one of the… Continue Reading “Star Wars Outer Rim from Fantasy Flight Games”

Top 25 Games Played of All Time (20-16)

As a relatively new board game blogger (less than 2 years, and just hitting 200 posts), I sometimes don’t feel right making “Top 10” lists. The number of games I’ve played, in relative terms, would probably not even fit in Tom Vasel’s pinky finger… Continue Reading “Top 25 Games Played of All Time (20-16)”

Dragonflight 39 – Another Successful Convention

Every August, there is a wonderful boardgaming convention in Bellevue, Washington, called Dragonflight. It’s been held at the Hilton hotel there, and I’ve been going to it since 2015. This past weekend was the 2018 version of it, and it was just as much… Continue Reading “Dragonflight 39 – Another Successful Convention”

New Expansion for Fallout: the Boardgame Coming

What, it’s July 13 and I haven’t posted anything in July yet? My apologies for my tardiness. How about some Fallout news? I played the base Fallout boardgame at the Terminal City Tabletop Convention back in March, and it was a fun game. Went… Continue Reading “New Expansion for Fallout: the Boardgame Coming”

New to Me – March 2018

I’m tired. It’s been a busy month of playing new games! So I’ve definitely enjoyed it. But I’m tired. If I hadn’t been writing this post as I played the games, I’m not sure if it would have come out. This is a long one.… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2018”

Another Civilization Game Coming?

Every year, just before GenCon, Fantasy Flight Games makes a bunch of new announcements that get the game world buzzing. Last week there were two: the Fallout: the Boardgame announcement (for which I’m pumped) and the announcement of Twilight Imperium 4th Edition (which didn’t… Continue Reading “Another Civilization Game Coming?”

Fallout: the Boardgame Coming in late 2017

Video games and board games have often had a bit of cross over (though I’m waiting for the First-Person Shooter version of Catan, myself). Titles like XCom: the Board Game come to mind as games based on video game franchises that actually end up… Continue Reading “Fallout: the Boardgame Coming in late 2017”
