  1. It's X fortnight in our #BoardGamesAToZ challenge. We have exactly one game that starts with X:

    boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/82

    It requires more than two players, though, so we'll have to wait until game night to play it.

    Game night is scheduled for the very last day of the fortnight. Letting everything ride on that is just asking for us to come down with hemorrhagic gastroenteritis or Dutch elm disease or something, so we played a prophylactic game of Xiangqi on boardgamearena just to be safe.

  2. If you're doing #BoardGamesAToZ, come mid-September you're going to want a copy of Siva Afi: The Fireknife Dance of Samoa.

    Since thegamecrafter.com is a print-on-demand shop, it's best to order now.

  3. Moving on to G games with Gravwell.

    Each round, you draft a hand of movement cards that pull you toward, or repel you from, the nearest object. You choose which cards to play simultaneously, in secret, and sort of rubber band your way around the spiral, hoping that your ship will fly in the direction you intended.

    Our finish was a real nail-biter. Purple was one space from victory, then blue, and then finally purple crossed the finish to win.
