I'm surprised Hasbro has [edit] not capitalized on this genius hack from days gone by...

I couldn't agree more! That happened to me more times than I care to admit, especially with one-hex wooden buildings that always took cover underneath an MMC. This is a terrific extension.

Kind of sounds like drinking games in college.

And always appreciate those who know the difference. :)

True story (or as we used to say in the Navy "a no-shitter"): About 15 years ago I was playing a local Atlanta friend at his house. He chewed snuff...so he had a spit cup in addition to his identical dice cup. In the heat of battle he grabbed the wrong cup. Let's just say I'm glad we were...

Swamp Cats is an oldie and a goodie! Much fun as I recall.

You could add a discussion of "custom-made, padded dice towers vs. barbarian drinking glasses". Oh, did my bias show? :unsure:

My condolences, Jim. Lost my dad in ‘88 and my mom (at 96) a year ago. It is a strange feeling to realize that I now am in the “senior tier” of the family hierarchy.

I got remarried recently to a wonderful lady, originally from China. I explained that I played this game called ASL and gave a brief description of the gameplay, complexity, cost…🙄, and typical time commitment. She immediately understood it all except for one point: “How much do you play...

That is very pricey for sure. Someone will eventually build a knock-off and we will be able to buy on Temu for 50 bucks.

I did similar. One labeled “Collaborators” and the other this:

Probably so. Sorry, it’s spring training for baseball here in the States…

You’re probably right. Big market teams with deep pockets (Yankees, Dodgers, and the f’ing Braves: we’re looking at you) will never let it happen. I’m sure TV revenue agreements also have an outsize influence in all this. BUT, Mark Cuban sold the Mavs so we can hope he “comes back home” and...

MLB needs a salary cap like the NHL.

That's our problem, too. Hillbilly owner from WV doesn't want to spend any of his newspaper billions to field a competitive team. BUT we have awesome "promotions" like free fireworks and bring your dog to the park (WTF?!)

I got excited when I read “Russell Martin”. As a Pirates’ fan we cling to whatever we can. This was 11 years ago…

SME CG III, SaF CG III, KGP CG I, respectively. Honestly, the best “CG” I played in the past two years was Singling. Although smallish and shortish, it was very tight and FUN.

This is the key: it needs to be fun. I’ve played three CGs in the past 18 months and they all ended after the first, second or third campaign date because it was just not fun for one of the sides. No faulty gameplay, just lacked balance and excitement. In all three cases my opponents and I...
