Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
Let's Talk - Solo Gaming
Hopefully that’ll be shelved for a little while though as she’s off work for the summer and will actually have time to play.

I've dabble with Mage Knight, but haven't invested the time to really appreciate the rule set.
So, why not go for something even more complex?!
I got a nice copy of Magic Realm. One day, I will teach myself.
In the meantime, I got a copy of Gloomhaven. My Plano boxes arrived yesterday*, and I may start the organization this evening. I have a few (6?) minis to paint first.
*While attending Origins, I was on the verge of buying Broken Token's Gloomhaven organizer. Then I saw the $80 sticker price. A quick search online revealed I could do practically the same thing with some Plano boxes. $25.

This is the primary reason I haven't been back to Gloomhaven for a couple of months. Once I hooked up my xbox, it was just way easier to plop in front of the tv. Sadly, I actually found the solo boardgaming far more rewarding, but my laziness won out.Legomancer wrote: I've tried to get myself to do more solo gaming, but honestly, if I'm looking to play a game by myself 'll just fire up No Man's Sky and not futz around with bits. I like my board games with others and my video games solo.

The Walking Dead: All Out War is great if you like the source material. Most of the early scenarios are solo/co-op friendly.
Any of the Song Of Blades & Heroes variants are good solo.
Everyone should play Zombicide at least once, but it gets old fast.
I think I enjoy Star Saga (Mantic's sci-fi version of Dungeon Saga) but they need to beef it up with more scenarios pronto.
I tried some of the Two Hour Wargames books, but either I just don't understand them, or I find them annoyingly packed with oceans of modifiers and RPG elements.

These have stuck around:
Space Hulk: Death Angel
Gears of War
Camp Grizzly
Mansions of Madness 2nd Edition
X-Wing with Heroes of the Aturi Cluster looks to be a keeper as well.
I like WD: All Out War quite a bit, but I'm thinking of getting out of it. There's just too much and it's difficult to keep up and grab all the boosters. I need less lifestyle games at this point.

You're not wrong, it is a lot to keep track of. I see the major OLGS have the next wave ("Fear The Hunters") up for pre-order and for the first time I'm like, "Ehhhh... maybe I'll sit this wave out."charlest wrote: I like WD: All Out War quite a bit, but I'm thinking of getting out of it.

Charles, FCM, and I need to get together to play through a Star Saga campaign.
Or whatever. I'll buy the first round.

FCM can be found on the BGG forums for Mantic games. Hard to ignore the punching kitten.
