What board games are you BUYING?

I've been out of the loop for a little while, what happened to Propsero Hall?

Also;

NOT BUYING: A copy of Camp Grizzly and expansions popped up on a local FB buy/sell page. My excitement to quickly nab it was brutally murdered when I saw the $900 (US $550) asking price.

Funko sold the back catalog to Goliath, and most of the staff was not kept on. It's like buying the Harlem Globetrotters but firing all of the players.

Talk about a bad move.

A friend gave some expansions to the DC Deck-Building after hearing how much my boys enjoy it, but it’s been a lot of not buying otherwise.

Visited a few stores this weekend and held Sail, Earthborne Rangers and Green Team Wins in my hands at some point. I’ve heard great things about all of them and am sure I would enjoy them as well, but I put them all back. I already have Fox in the Forest Duet, the Arkham Horror LCG and Just One. Are these new games really going to supplant them? I’ve been playing a lot of Dominion and Hansa Teutonica lately, and it just shows the emptiness of variety.

I’m holding onto a lot of games on the chance they excite my boys, but I really feel I could cull down to 20 or so and be completely happy.

Good luck with that, my kids could not give a fuck about board games.

I bought all of Brewmeister's holdings of Nightfall. And I also started looking for bookshelves for my games. There's an unholy pile in my office that needs a bookshelf to call home.

Picked up the new Feast for Odin reprint. Expensive but I'm a big fan of Arles and some of his other games solo.

Recently picked up a couple of decent deals on FB boardgame groups, these are pretty reliable and safe in the UK and people are happy to be paid with Paypal for further protection:
Clash of Cultures with the Civilizations expansion
Fallout with both expansions
Both games are quite good, not ones I'd grab for a first choice play but decent designs that I will play.

Earlier this year also picked for very good prices:
Reichbusters
Civilization: A New Dawn plus expansion
Unsettled with all expansions
Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle-Earth plus a few expansions

That'll keep me busy for a year or so ... and then there's some big kickstarters as well. I have a new club to visit and a new group I host for so I have games to keep me going for quite a few years now.

I finally found the Arkham Nights promotional Great Old Ones for 2e Arkham Horror at a good price. My collection is complete.
