A variety of games in April - some of my highlights!

#1 Pax Penning @mildamatildagames.bsky.social
Unreal production, multi-use pieces, multiple win cons, all things I love!

#2 Mountain Goats @allplay.bsky.social
New, not-card-game, filler fav. 1min teach, good decisions, & cute goat meeples!

It’s all so lovely - and I fit it all in the base box which is really nice.

@leder.games bonus points for “The Either Oars” - whoever put that in deserves a raise or minimally a crisp high five.

New Ahoy day! New-hoy? Oh boy Ahoy?

Been excited to get these boxes ever since Ted from @leder.games was selling me on the 2v2 team mode at PAXU! And who doesn’t love chunky metal coins, more @d20plusmodifier.bsky.social artwork, exquisite boat meeples…

Have a different tournament already in the calendar for that Arcs weekend, bummer! I’ll try to get in the next one!

Sometimes you go from “I don’t know anything about this game” to “potential buy list” in only a couple days! Really enjoyed this!

Molly House - 4p Teaching & Play-through by Heavy Cardboard

Tallhouse Games @tallhousegames.bsky.social · Mar 30

100x1 by a huge margin, but I’d like to think I’m more consistently like 5x5? Technically according to my BGStats I was 9x9 last year at best
