What BOARD GAMES are you TRADING?

OUT:
- Merchants & Marauders + Expansion
- Loot of Lima

IN:
+ Bandu (American version of Bausack)
+ Cosmic Encounter, Eon Edition with expansions

I'm genuinely thrilled to be getting a classic copy of Cosmic Encounter. I love old board games like that in the first place, and Cosmic is one that I'm...enthusiastic about, shall we say. I'm not totally sure what the full extent of the expansions included are, but I think it's near complete.

Bandu is the sort of thing my family would enjoy playing. Looking forward to that too.

Sad to see Merchants & Marauders go, but as I inventoried the pieces I realized that I wasn't particularly interested in playing it again. Just too many issues that keep it from getting played.

oh man, my aunt and uncle had Bandu when I was a kid and and we used tgo play it every time we went to their house for Thanksgiving. ive almost bought it multiple times just for nostalgia, but i already have Junk Art and Menara so I think my stacking game needs are already handled. i always thought Bandu had both nice rules and really well shaped bits for stacking though.

for myself, i got a really nice trade offer out of the blue on BGG so im trading Maglev Metro for A Feast For Odin (with a really fancy $50 insert included). AFFO has been on my want in trade list for a while now. i have played it a few times multiplayer and though it was okay, but I want to play it solo and try to get more into it. theres a lot of cool stuff going on in it.

for Maglev Metro, i thought it was cool but the wildly unbalanced scoring cards kind of killed its long term appeal for me i dunno. the efficiency puzzle of it was fun, and i think you could probably have pruned the cards down to a set that works, but eh i got the offer so there it goes

Wow, that is a deal!

Yea I windmill slammed accept for sure

In the latest series of deals via chains and such (with something still to go out)

OUT: Evergreen - (weird old Kramer title), Beowulf: The Legend, Blue Lagoon, Imperial Settlers, Zombie Kidz Evolution
IN: Through the Desert, Black Fleet, Mississippi Queen, and some random Carcassonne expansions and tiles

Good for you! Still loving Black Fleet here.

Yeah, been after a copy for ages probably based on comments here!

Out:
Four Lost Battles

In:
Rock of the Marne
Heights of Courage
Matanikau

Despite still not really getting any wargame to the table in a few months, the trades continue.

OUT:
The World of SMOG: Rise of Moloch kickstarter

IN:
Deep Madness kickstarter

Funny story - a local gamer was selling his Deep Madness kickstarter set but it was a bit pricey for me, a week later I put my Rise of Moloch up for sale and he contacted me about half an hour late ... trade arranged

Deep Madness is interesting. I moved on from it after just a couple of plays as it's a tad fiddly, but there are some really interesting ideas concerning oxygen and the tiles being flipped to the ruined/devoured/whatever state.
