Hey can you share whether TI4 might get a reprint soon, @fantasyflightgames.bsky.social?

Sample counters for Cuius Regio. I think these were sneak peeked a while ago but this is the first time I'm seeing them. Very slick. @gmtgames.bsky.social

Just watching the first two episodes of Vince Gilligan's new show #Pluribus and it's very good. A lot of opportunity to make some hilariously dark social commentary here, and I'm really eager to see where this goes.

The map legend for Seljuk: Byzantium Besieged, 1068-1071 coming from @gmtgames.bsky.social. I like that "gardens" are a thing here.

I enjoy Roads & Boats. I am not good at optimizing it.

I'm looking forward to learning more about this Falklands title from NAC Wargames. Operational level game where recon plays a large role.

Proud of those #BlueJays no matter what. They had a hell of a team and put on a great show.

Well, crap.

I love this representation of Aghanistan in Marc Rodrigue's board design for Bear Trap: The Soviet-Afghan War, 1979-1989, from @gmtgames.bsky.social. It does a nice job depicting the greener side of the country.

The sweetest moment of last night's game! #GoJays

Cuius Regio box art. I like it a lot.

The new game Punicus from Carlos S. Olivares and @gmtgames.bsky.social uses Craig Besinque's formula and drops it into the Second Punic War - the one where Hannibal crossed the Alps. Looks terrific.

I ate a slice of the one on the left. This is a Carolina Reaper pepper, weighing in at 1.6 million scovilles. It was the hottest pepper in the world between 2013 to 2023 until Pepper X unseated it. It was insanely, mouth scorchingly hot for a long 15m and then mildly burny for another 45m.

I'll be honest... I had a bit of a crush on her as a kiddo. RIP Jane.

Finally got my copy of the new RA! This has long been one of my favourites. Everything looks stunning. A bit redundant on the packaging maybe? Bags within bags. No bother. I'll reuse them elsewhere.

I’m growing Carolina Reapers. I’m not exactly sure why and as they ripen I’m feeling more and more obliged to eat one. Save me.

Here's the cover art for Brian Asklev's Baltic Empires. Gorgeous! @zweigefuhle.bsky.social @gmtgames.bsky.social

That's a beautiful new image for the Combat Commander 20th Anniversary Edition box from @gmtgames.bsky.social.

This is neat. I love my jumbo Mercury edition of Container. It's a lusciously overproduced monster that's fun to play with. Still, I love the art style on this @allplay.bsky.social edition. Excited to see more.

I know what I want for Christmas.

Took a stroll through some beautiful local gardens today, and found this little friend.

I really like the box art for Purgatorio! Who's the artist on this one, @gmtgames.bsky.social?

My son and I went on a camping trip to Presqu'ile last week. We brought along some boardgames - and he decidedly trounced me at most of them, including Hive, Can't Stop, and Sagrada.

Without saying Total Recall, fav Arnold Schwarzenegger film?

I played my copy of Jaws this weekend. Seemed like the perfect summer game for me and my buddy to explore. What a cool design! I dig the two Act structure, and the hidden movement stuff is tense and fun. @ravensburgertcg.bsky.social

Tier list for the Canadian Provincial/Territorial flags.

Fascinating use of AI, to bring to life these 1858 photographs of veterans from Napoleon's Grande Armée.

Excellent.

I jumped into a Hunt For Blackbeard game on RTT with Kevin, even though I have a near-zero concept of what I'm doing. Learning on the fly, that's how I roll. Hoist the jib!

Box art looks great. I'm excited to hear people's reactions to this system, because the second title in the series, Drachen, is on my radar.

Sell me on SLAY THE SPIRE. I've never played the video game, but I've heard good things about the card game and I'm wondering if it might make a good school night game for my wife and I.

I want to be Jasper when I retire. Growing plants, listening to music, and playing boardgames in a cozy house in the woods.

Happy Birthday, Canada!!! #CanadaDay

Do yourself a favour... if you're interested in Project Hail Mary but you haven't read the book, get this audiobook.

If you read the book (or better, the audiobook) and liked it, check out this trailer for Project Hail Mary. If you intend on seeing the movie but didn't real the book (or better, the audiobook) and you like surprises - I suggest you avoid this trailer. youtu.be/m08TxIsFTRI?...

"Earthborne Rangers" snuck up on me. I learned about it very late, did not expect to be interested (at first), but once I had it explained to me - it seized my attention. The box just dropped on my doorstep this week and I'm thoroughly excited to peek inside! @earthbornegames.bsky.social

On this day in 1809, Jean Lannes, one of Napoleon's greatest Marshalls, met his demise.

Seems like both Stonemaier Games and RTFM got hacked today. I hope they're both able to resolve this without too much hassle. Please, for the love of dog, use a password manager and two-factor authentication (and not the SMS kind).

I really hope this quote is true. During the Battle of Rivoli early in Napoleon's career, during a particularly desperate French situation in which the Austrians have them surrounded and outnumbered...

Wow, the @phalanxgames.bsky.social edition of Conquest Of Paradise looks completely different, and targets a different demographic, I think. Really terrific looking redesign.

These map snippets for the upcoming COIN XIV title "The Pure Land" look really neat - what a wonderful departure from the style we're using to seeing from this series so far. @gmtgames.bsky.social

Oh, that's really interesting. I never thought about the potential political ramifications of printing certain games in certain countries. What a fascinating little twist.

As a fan of TE Lawrence and the corner of WWI history that deals with the Arab revolt, here's a game I'd love to get my hands on. It seems I missed @gmtgames.bsky.social 2023 reprint and it's gone rare again.

Second day haul of mushrooms.

Morel hunting.

What is the greatest line in cinema?

Getting excited for this one. Hunt For Blackbeard, from @fortcircle.bsky.social - a two player game where one player takes control of the Royal Navy as they hunt down Teach, controlled by the other player.

I love shipping containers. Malcolm McLean knew a thing or two.
