Never actually played Zombicide - closest we've got (thematically, at least) is Dead of Winter. It's a long-time favourite in our house, although I am getting a little tired of it at this point. I do like the look of it, but have no idea of the best jumping on point.

Not yet. All I've really managed to do is put it in the Kallax. I'm hoping to get it to the table on Friday night.

I know I should have by now, but I've never played it. I need to rectify that.

I prefer to concentrate on our exporting of "unspecified conmodities". I assume that's not what they're sold as.

I know, but that isn't the first place my brain goes when I hear it. I'm still going to watch it, planned for Friday night, along with Red One.

It does look good, but I cannot get over the name.
I presume it's a Brit thing, but it makes me thing of bawdy Carry On films. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but definitely NOT what this movie is about.

I really liked #Scythe, probably one of my favourite games. Then I had the misfortune to play the campaign through, and it has left me never wanting to lay eyes on it again. Either way, 7 player is braaaave!
