#twilightstruggle — Public Fediverse posts

Here's an #introduction to this account

I'm @[email protected] and this is the account where, I guess, I'll talk about - and maybe post pictures related to - my board game habits

Some games to which I more or less know the rules at this point, in no particular order: #TwilightStruggle, the shorter #TSRedSea, #ImperialStruggle, the excellent #BayonetsAndTomahawks produced by talented locals, #HereIStand, #VirginQueen, #PaxRenaissance, #PaxPamir, #Arcs, maybe #JohnCompany but I'm not certain, and at least the Breaking the Bismarck Barrier scenario of #EmpireOfTheSun (finally, a game with real hexes). I have played several COIN games but the one I like the most is #AndeanAbyss. I love #DominantSpecies. I'm starting to love #Nevsky

Definitely not a tabletop board game but I'm also a big fan of #CivilizationVI, e.g. #Civ6. More hexes!

Interested in playing more games with locals, connecting with other people in town, or playing with other places' locals when I'm out of town. Looking at you, Ontario

I don't use Facebook, Discord, or almost any spyware social media if I can help it - and I only use BoardgameGeek begrudgingly. Happy to be on wargamers.social now, I've been thinking about spinning up a more game-focused account for awhile but it's always been on the backburner 😀

@taelmoor
Let’s add the tag #boardgames to this thread.

Your local feed should be all tabletop games folk. I’ve met some nice folks. My primary interest here is horror but I love #ttgames.

So, if you primarily are interested in boardgames you may not want to clog up your home feed with my horror crap.

Maybe helpful to know some favorites?

7 of my favorite games are:
#TwilightStruggle
#ArkhamHorror
#GoodCopBadCop
#BattleLine
#Quantum
#betrayalathouseonthehill
#cthulhudeathmaydie

Holiday #boardgames day. Got together with a friend I only see a few times a year for a day of gaming. He introduced me to #BloodBowl quite a few years ago and we used to meet up weekly for games of #TwilightStruggle before he moved away. So now when we get together it's "okay, here's what I've got new or finally got around to playing that I think you might like..."

Two games of #QuacksOfQuedlinburg, a couple rounds of #Everdell and an introductory game of #DuneImperium is a day well spent.

@zmunson @GameMinimalist Excluding #RainbowDeck

#bigbox:
#Qwirkle #accessible
#Qauntum most underrated #gamedesign in #boardgames
#TerraMystica heavy #openinformation game.
#TwilightStruggle most #thematic
#CosmicEncounters #asymetrical player powers
#NorthwestPassage #theme and best combined mechanisms result.

#smallbox:
#Battlines accessible, themed game
#DeathAngel #solo #coop
#RedCathedral #workerplacement with a #rondel

If an option, I’d sub Rainbow Deck for Qwirdle.
