I don't know why, but I like this old medieval art style employed by Euros. Board games like Troyes (pictured), Orleans and The King is Dead just scratch my art satisfaction membrane.

Did predictions take into account all the extra games outside of the league some teams had to play? Miami had CCC and Club World Cup. Vancouver had to travel a lot for CCC, and so on. Successful teams tend to play much more, and in recent years, had to play more games (Leagues Cup, CCC, USOC...).

Pedro de la Vega is set to miss the next six months after he sustained a fractured patella against NYCFC, Brian Schmetzer confirmed after this morning’s training that.

A massive blow to the #Sounders and right before the playoffs begin…
Yeah, the replay of the incident did not look good. I through he dislocated it, but a fracture is even worse.

Terrible, after such a good season for him.
Uh, how is this going to work exactly?
I love this game.

It's the best game to bring out micro aggressions.
It absolutely can be, and to be fair, the keep-away aspect happened when there was a player with a substantial lead, so everyone else was trying to do two things at once by moving leader's home planet while also trying to gather their own missing planets; it led to a lot of inefficient turns.
Yeah, we are jaded old board game veterans at this point, lol.

That said, I have a good board game group that let's me try things I probably would never pick from a shelf. I've discovered that most games with minis are not for me, and that I never knew how bad at negotiations I am.
I don't know how long you've been into board games, but I think everyone goes through this curve. You want everything under the sun in the beginning, but by the end you have a set of 15-20 games you want to play. We might be in the stage where we know what we like and can parse the meh games out.
I went from a heavy video game player to exclusively a board game player particularly because I wanted more human interaction and didn't want to hear vulgar language in my headset. Plus I feel my brain is more engaged in a board game versus sort of zoning out in a video game.
I've played it, I think it's good, but the last third of the game can drag a bit with a game of keep-away.

Haven't tried it with the nebula module.

Interesting list! Although I feel very out of step: I own 4 of them and none of the others are on my wishlist🤷‍♀️ Which isn't to say I might not impulse purchase some in the future; there's several I'd like to play, but possibly aren't a good fit for our collection of games. #boardgames
I think most of these fall under one of these categories:

-I want it, but price is a deal breaker
-I want it, but group won't play it
-I want it, but it's not avaliable
-I was curious, but I didn't want to forget about it
-I was sleepy and it seemed like a good idea at the time.
-It's Nokosu Dice
Anything that's a card game I absolutely take notice. Looking forward to how this develops.
This looks dope.

What's the central hook of this one?
Maybe it's cheating a bit since it uses a tarot deck, but Dino Trix has clear indication which cards have points and which don't.
This is top of the list of games to back (and I hardly ever back anything) when it comes to crowdfunding next year.

So much to like here.
Picked up Crisps! and Big Wave recently, and now I have to go and pick up a few more trick-taking games again from New Mill.

It never ends but sometimes you gotta do the work.
It's funny how it begins with pretty neutral questions and it gets progressively more intimate until he slowly realizes what's going on.
