Don't have any of the pasta but here goes anyways.
Board Game General!
>What have you been playing? >What have you stopped playing? >What have you recently bought? >What are you looking forward to buying?
I'll go first: >Playing Most recently been playing Harbour, a really nice small shipping game, works with two players but haven't tired it with more. Two player can be kind of mean with fucking up the market specifically for your opponent but it's still pretty fun. Also Five Tribes + expansion has been really fun.
>Stopped playing Recently have slowed down on Ascension. I have every expansion except the most recent Dreamscape one and I think I might be done. It was the game that got me and my friends into board gaming from Magic but it doesn't have the same level of excitement that it once held. Giving it a break to see how I feel about it after a while.
>Buying Just bought a bunch of games for the summer, some titles I've been really excited for, namely Istanbul, Sushi Go Party, and 7 Wonders Duel. I also picked up Lords of Waterdeep+Skullport expansion as a lightweight worker placement game that can work as an introduction.
>Looking forward to Probably not buying more games that the above for a while, although I am interested in Codenames: Pictures and Arkwright, and we'ill see if Scoville: Labs is enough to get me into the game itself.
tabletop simulator is on sale on steam. Anyone ever use it? Worth 10 dollars?

anyone played death angel? it seems really neat, but it's the one I'm least confident about
I don't have it, but it hasn't been under $10 since christmas sale 2014 which was when it was still in early access and $15. doesn't look like it'll go under $10 anytime soon

Automobile by AEG is one of the most thematic games I've played. That is, it's boring bullshit until the last two laps, then becomes INTENSE.

Scythe! My copy came in. I'm super pumped. I severely underestimated the size of the expanded board though. I'm not sure if I'll ever have space to set that one up with all players

be strong brother. Pray for lack of postal strikes.
I hadn't heard about the Canada Post strike until the update, then they added that they shipped my region last. You should get your delivery before the strike, probably. It shipped last wednesday then had to sit in the sorting office over the weekend. I got the delivery notification at 10 this morning while I was at work. Text my roommate to bring it inside. >I just missed him bro, wut? You missed him dropping off the box? Where is game? >There's no package here WHAT!?! >oh wait, it's inside the screen door
Stoner roommates are the worst.

I'm not Canadian, so I ought to be fine with regards to the strike. American folks are getting shipping info, though.

>Playing Catan: Star Trek (gf likes it and I'm a Star Trek fanboy, Love Letter, Dungeonquest (though I'm not sure about this last one - the combat system is frankly bizarre).
>Stopped playing Cards Against Humanity. Though strictly speaking that isn't true: trying to keep it to once a year when the family wants to play.
>Buying Just picked up Dungeonquest, Deathwatch: Overkill, Mission: Red Planet, Letters from Whitechapel, Siege (aka: Weapons and Warriors to non-Canadians), and Heroquest.
>Looking forward to Nothing specifically. Though my wish list includes Mice and Mystics, Warhammer: Forbidden Stars, and On Her Majesty's Service.
