We’re not going to GenCon this year. My shelf of unplayed games has created our motto for this year- “we have GenCon at home.”😂 However, that has not stopped me from now looking into Distilled!

Definitely go for “City of the Great Machine” ! It’s awesome ! Also, you will be playing it differently based on player count: - Great as a solo game - With two, either play as coop against the machine or as machine vs heroes - With three, play as coop or one vs many - With four, you will then play classic one vs many

@rustymandude 10 месяцев назад

CotGM is one I backed and was unsure about, but the theme caught me. One of the best surprises after play, super enjoyable! The teach is weird, but mostly because it plays differently than similar games. I’d love to hear y’alls thoughts when you get to it. Thanks for the great content

I have Jerusalem Anno Domini, just waiting for my game group to catch up on our play queue. Good to see a Biblical period game anyone can play and enjoy (BGG mid-weight 3.12). Idea: If you have a day to play 2 games, would be interested to try Viticulture followed by Distilled. Idea: Brother Murph challenge... how many games you can fit into 1 carry-on backpack for a trip.

Quite a variety of gaming in your list. For me, if I would be at Gencon and the games would be available, the 5 I would instantly buy would be (in no particular order): - Chronicles of Drunagor - Age of Darkness - Apocalypse - GWT- New Zealand - Oltréé - Undead and Alive - Revive - Call of the Abyss - The Rich and the Good From your list, City of the Great machine and Distilled are the 2 that interest me the most, but i have friends who owned them already. 🙂 Have a great trip, it's coming soon!

I hadn't given much thought to 3 Ring Circus but oh no! Now it sounds so good! Age of Innovation is a maybe (been really enjoying Gaia Project) and City of the Great Machine sounds really cool. I might try to look for Federation by Eagle Gryphon games (just because it's been nearly impossible to get) and General Orders (since I liked Undaunted and love War Chest). I really just want to demo a bunch though. Last Light, Big Boss, Call of Duty, 20 Strong, Galactic Cruise, and Dead Cells.

Great video! Just a heads up: Scorpion Masqué has an accent on the last e, and it should pronounced in english ''Scoprion mask-ay''. Scoprion masqué means ''Masked Scoprion'' whereas Scoprion Masque without the é would simply mean ''Scorpion Mask'', which is a bit of a different. Hope this helps! :D

@SethsTable 10 месяцев назад

GenCon newbie here- if there’s a game I want, should I buy on the first day? Do they usually run out?

@TheBrothersMurph 10 месяцев назад

It really depends on the game and the publisher. Some games will sell out very quickly, so if you were worried about it selling out, you should probably grab it on the first day if you can. But what most publishers seem to do now days, is they will have a certain amount for each day of the con. So if they only have 400 copies total, they will sell 100 a day. And once they’re sold out for the day, they don’t sell anymore until the next day. So a lot of times if you miss it on the first day you will have a chance on the subsequent days, but again, if you’re worried about missing something, you should probably just pick it up when you can.

@SethsTable 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! Good tip.

Ierusalem: Anno Domini is an interesting switch up since there are lots of games featuring devils, demons, and evil but not a ton focused on belief (my personal feelings about blind faith aside). I'm not a Christian or believer of any sort (Atheist here) but I appreciate a designer trying something different. Plus it's interesting to see a game themed around disciples of Jesus that doesn't look...well...terrible.
