oh not bad! I think the only game I have in that pile is settlers of catan

2019-10-11 15:00:17 UTC  

I play huge strategy games mostly

2019-10-11 15:00:49 UTC  

We want to try gloomhaven and TE

2019-10-11 15:00:57 UTC  

Our family has a group that plays regularly

2019-10-11 15:04:33 UTC  

TE?

2019-10-11 15:05:09 UTC  

Gloomhaven is an absolute monster from what I've heard

2019-10-11 15:05:16 UTC  

8 hour ply times

2019-10-11 15:05:45 UTC  

At the point where your game takes more than an hour or two I dont see why I wouldn't just go to PnP RPGs

2019-10-11 15:07:23 UTC  

some of my collection

2019-10-11 15:07:45 UTC  

Twilight Empereon

2019-10-11 15:07:48 UTC  

well at least for me, its a very different kind of game than an RPG

2019-10-11 15:07:51 UTC  

I probably misspelled that

2019-10-11 15:07:52 UTC  

oh that TE

2019-10-11 15:07:58 UTC  

I cant stand long board games but I do play DnD

2019-10-11 15:07:58 UTC  

I think its Imperium

2019-10-11 15:08:01 UTC  

so TI

2019-10-11 15:08:07 UTC  

Ah

2019-10-11 15:08:27 UTC  

anyway, yeah that's 8-12 hours too so bring some coffee

2019-10-11 15:09:27 UTC  

I think we have enough table space we could stop playing and come back to it

2019-10-11 15:09:41 UTC  

I'm also into a Monsterpocalypse which is a godzilla style miniatures game that like matt's channel is woefully under appreciated

2019-10-11 15:09:59 UTC  

Tbh some of them are basically just more restrictive D&D though. Like my sister was getting into Arkham and shit, and from what she was telling me the long form version is just babby D&D with premades. Also not a fan of either spending a full day on one game or finding a way to save progress

2019-10-11 15:10:29 UTC  

I spent $3,000 on a boardgaming table with a lid

2019-10-11 15:10:36 UTC  

so to save it, just put the lid on

2019-10-11 15:10:44 UTC  

I want one of those so bad

2019-10-11 15:11:01 UTC  

I thought I'd never get one, then bitcoin exploded

2019-10-11 15:11:13 UTC  

I had bought a bitcoin back when it was $50

2019-10-11 15:11:25 UTC  

my wife couldn't even stop me

2019-10-11 15:11:29 UTC  

I bought the table first

2019-10-11 15:11:34 UTC  

then told her we had bitcoin money

2019-10-11 15:12:15 UTC  

If you play often that’s money well spent

2019-10-11 15:12:46 UTC  

well I try to, it's hard to get 4-6 people to sit down in a room and play for 6-8 hours

2019-10-11 15:13:10 UTC  

I guess I could take a page from beeman and play shorter games

2019-10-11 15:13:22 UTC  

like "virtue signal"

2019-10-11 15:13:32 UTC  

Shorter is a relative term when it comes to boardgames

2019-10-11 15:13:53 UTC  

It really depends on the group

2019-10-11 15:14:00 UTC  

Catan can take ages with the right group

2019-10-11 15:14:33 UTC  

Especially if you’re with expanded amount of players

2019-10-11 15:15:23 UTC  

How long did it take to get your table?

2019-10-11 15:15:35 UTC  

4 months from placing the order I think

2019-10-11 15:15:49 UTC  
2019-10-11 15:15:50 UTC  

Pins and needles?
