Giving Myself an Ultimatum

Neither here nor there, but thinking back I've actually played my most recent purchases a fair amount and loved them (Clash of Cultures, Firefly, and Pax Porfiriana). Agricola is the only one that hasn't hit the table, but I soloed it and know the rules now and it's more of a game for my wife and I when we're bored anyway.

It helped to get more into VASSAL for regular games. I've found that VASSAL isn't just for long wargames, as long as it's a game where the turns are self contained. If your opponents send things back and forth quickly, you can get a nice flow to the game as you do in person.

I've played Wiz-War several times, just not the copy I inexplicably bought. My friend made a PNP version before this reprint came out. It's not so much that I haven't played these games (Only Invaders and Gang of Four have zero plays) but more that I haven't played these games, these ones I spent money on and are just taking up space. It's about not buying stuff just for the sake of buying stuff and getting rid of things that aren't doing anything.

I have at least a few boardgames I've not played, although I think I received all of them in Secret Satan.

I have tons of Steam games not played.

I'll take WIZ-WAR and WIRQUOAAOCHAHGJHA when you grow weary of those toads. They can toad up a Toady McToaderson here and I won't toad a toad. Shelf.

Wiraqocha has been played. And it's on the trade shelf. There's something there, but it just feels a little underdone, and I'd rather just play Nexus Ops.

Nations has been played. Three players may be the best arrangement for this, and you have more military wiggle room than I thought. It's been spared for the moment.

The project is over, all ten have been played. I can now buy new games again, just in time for Gen Con. Of course, what I learned from this was that I already have a bunch of great games and don't need to go cardboard chasing all the time.

The results are in!

KEEPERS:
Merchant of Venus
Nations
Flash Point
Triumvirate

ON THE FENCE:
Core Worlds
Gang of Four

TRADE SHELF:
Wiz-War
Invaders
Manhattan Project
Wiraqocha
