The RoboSheep Bleat

I bought another game that won’t fit on the table…

Grace! I’m glad for your interest in board games but shouldn’t we start you on something easier like Settlers of CATan?

Last night: when you play the Game of Thrones you win or you die. Happy to report 0 actual fatalities.

Star Trek Themed Settlers of Catan is a real thing.

Star Trek Catan takes two well-known media properties and merges them into, well, into something that is 95% The Settlers of Catan glossed with Trektropes and spiced with new special powers related to Trek personalities.

In Star Trek Catan, players start the game with two small space stations at the intersection of three planets, with each planet supplying resources based on the result of a dice roll. Players collect and trade these resources – Dilithium, Tritanium, food, oxygen and water – in order to build spaceships that connect regions in the galaxy, establish small and large space stations at new intersection points in order to increase resource acquisition, and acquire development cards that provide victory points (VPs) or special abilities.

On a dice roll of 7, a Klingon ship swoops in to prevent resource production on one planet, while taxing spacegoers who hold too many resources.

what. the. fiery. klingon. hell.

Some times I’m super nerdy

3d Catan. So this happened, vanilla and Cities and Knights: won both games :)

Runewars last night.

Maximum Arkham Horror at the Fantasy Flight Event Center last night.

or

Nerds of the Long Table?

Runewars heroes look so much better now.

Excuse me while I geek out about my absolute favorite out of print board game - that is also based on what is quickly becoming my favorite fantasy novel series - getting a second edition with better artwork.
