@mattthr I really like New Angeles for its starting proposition that all players are amoral corps who should tank the game for a single dollar

I don't think I've ever played a really satisfying negotiation game. They're problematic in all sorts of ways. Like deckbuilding it's a mechanic that works best with others. Genoa and Santiago are great negotiation-heavy games with good spatial & economic strategy too.

This is your updated PSA on David Leavitt, his latest nonsense, and how you can avoid falling for it. Yes, he recently made a bunch of reckless claims about me, but I'm fine. Perhaps we can help make sure others don't fall for it.

This hand in Dominion is frankly my #boardgames villain origin story. I recall vividly being at a club circa 2008 and teaching my points. Other players confused and patronisingly told me I could take my move back. Another player quietly said “I think he knows what he’s doing”

Relevant to my current situation. Do we lose Gloomhaven when a character dies or the party dies?

@ithayla Much happier with the short amount of spare time that I've got now I've cut out any recommendation that starts "it gets good after..."
