That’s great that they are being (literally hohoho) so supportive. Some good stuff in that collection.

Anyone played Scopa (Italian card game)? Other half just came back from a holiday in Sicily with a deck

Never heard of it, but let us know if it’s good!

Maximum nerding, playing my favourite 18xx. Been at it for about 8 hours.

A level of commitment I can only dream of!

This is a two or three times a year thing these days unfortunately thanks to my board game pals being spread across the country and us all having small kids, but it’s nice when it happens!

I have to stay off Vinted. I’ve bought Wavelength, Jaipur and (sadly counterfeit) Nana for £25 total this week.

Oh, also, finally got to play Ito on Thursday. There was a group of 7 and most of us only knew each other on a very superficial level but it was great and lots of creative clues. One round we had a 32, 62, 63, 65, 67, 74, 75 spread that we almost got correct despite the tight bunching

Played Concordia for only the second? Third? Time in the seven or eight years I’ve owned it. Enjoyed it but we were originally going to play it three player, then two more showed up with nothing to play so we made it a five.

Never play Concordia at five players

Am surprised it’s never had the :sparkles: Big Box Deluxe :sparkles: treatment! It’s such a solid game, but I’m always hesitant to introduce it to people because it really is so beige.

Got sent these from one of the players this morning, only partially tongue in cheek

Iits too slow with 5? or too hard to explain the rules?

I bought it just based on Quinn’s (shut up and sit down) recommendation alone, but have only played it twice.

Been playing a bit of Caverna recently, what a great game.

Too slow. The game ends when someone places their 15 buildings on the board or when all the extra cards have been bought. We ended up taking away four buildings each and removed six of the cards too as we had already been playing for two hours.

I usually find Actualol a bit too nice but this is a great video

I finally learned how to play Wingspan, very fun, even if you’re losing you get to look at birds. I did place in the middle though with a last round strategy of many eggs pushing me up
