What board games are you BUYING?

Yeah, I played the game with a couple of friends and like halfway through I was like "this is 100% my spouse's jam." So I ordered it.

I got a copy of Hogwarts Battle because it seems like it will be fun to play with my spouse. It was also on sale at the local B&N during the double member discount days this weekend so it was fairly cheap.

I went ahead and ordered the new Tales of the Ancients expansion to Omen: Reign of War. It's available on Drive-Thru Cards. Will I play it enough to justify owning it? Who even knows, but so far in my life more Omen has not proven to be a mistake.

I bought Xia in the hopes that my kids (particularly the non-confrontational one) will enjoy zipping around the galaxy. We'll see.

I also pre-ordered John Company, since I'm a sucker for a modern (cynical) treatment of the East India Company. Even if it doesn't work for me, I'm sure I can ride the wave of Sierra Madre print runs and get rid of it for little worry (or even a pick up a few bucks).

I ordered the four new Small Box Games: Lords, Merchants of Muziris, Hemloch: Dark Promenade, and Cartouche: Dynasties. I like Clowdus's style and since space has become a big consideration for me, I'm in the market for interesting, small games. Also, I've played a little bit of Omen recently, so I think I'm on a Clowdus kick. It's like I'm Michael Barnes in 2011!

It really likes to be played with 4+ players, but Pax Pamir is very tiny, physically.

Those small box games look pretty good. Too bad Omen is so expensive right now.

I bought Captain Sonar and expansion. Looking forward to trying it out. Gotta hit up the Meetup group to get this to the table.

Now I just need to find some decent scans of the NY and Chicago promo maps.

Kolossal Games has the rights to the old Clowdus designs from before 2017, including Omen. Word on BGG is that they are Kickstarting a new version of Omen in the spring, including a THIRD Omen game. I have Reign of War and Edge of Aegean, but I'm not sure I need a third one.

I bought Days Gone Bye, which is an expansion for Walking Dead: All Out War. I like the core game, so having some extra characters and equipment cards was an easy decision. It also includes different scenarios.

The expansions introduce different terrain too, which is kind of nice. You can now loot and burn down tents.
