@grantlyon1 @TeamYouTube Grant and his channel both bring nothing but positivity to the community. Please revisit this decision. It must be a mistake.

@BG_HotTakes My table is quite large. Homemade. 7x4. You have to play this thing on the floor. The pictures honestly do not do it justice. Maybe I lug this thing to BGG.con.....its such a great game.

@BG_HotTakes Have you seen the LaGranda version? Worst mistake I ever made on Kickstarter. It's too big for almost any table. The player boards alone........

@BG_HotTakes It takes a while to go through the board game hobbyist cycle. Growing you collection, acquiring en masse, purging, culling, the final and best step.....curating. But I believe it's only something you have to experience, despite how many times you are told.

@BG_HotTakes Of course the obligatory 12 hour TI-4. But I have also played an 11 hour single session of Too Many Bones and I played a very long 6.5.hour Legacies. Don't regret either. I prefer the 2-3 hour range, it sometimes an epic game is just what the doctor ordered.

@BG_HotTakes @AportaGames Poor man's Trickerion! I've been claiming hidden gem since I found this and just rules read it at a table with friends. There is just enough game here to sink your teeth. Plays quick. May only have a set number of plays in the tank, but really enjoyed it.

@BG_HotTakes Dune Imperium. Every game has a story and truly pivotal moments. Expansions add multiple paths to victory.

@BG_HotTakes @trzewik Bought this one and recently sold it without ever getting it to the table. Did it feel punishing in a good way...or a bad way.

@BG_HotTakes Not exactly a board game meet up per se, but one of my favorite things to do at larger cons is to walk around and search for a "Players Wanted" sign and sit down and enjoy a game or a group that looks interesting. Some of my best experiences have come from that.

@BG_HotTakes This one stands the test of time. Expert design and one the absolute best from a variable strategy standpoint. People play this game at a high level (not me) and it is always so appealing to me when game design allows for that ultra competitive scene, usually means great bones.

@BG_HotTakes Ark Nova is great at two, I'd argue best at 3.......but Paladins just sings at two. One of my absolute favorites for that player count and right in line with the weight/complexity as the previous mentions.

@BG_HotTakes First play at BGG last year....didn't much like it. Gave it another chance and grew to really love it after a few more plays. Definitely play with all the modules and asymmetric powers. Good news, more Revive coming.

@RiledNerd She chickened out!! It's so funny because last year at Geekway she randomly played Genotype with Isaac Childres and had no idea. Maybe next year she will be up for it.

@jsdrake That’s awesome that he takes the time to interact with people. It’d be easy to dismiss people and say “I’m in the middle of a game. Can’t talk right now” and it wouldn’t be unjustified to do that, but it is awesome that he doesn’t. Did she end up getting to play with him?
