Why play anything else? - Top 10 Board Game Obsessions! 

Yea, the rush of new, new, new . . . it will help a channel grow while killing the whole reason you did the channel in the first place :)

Yay! Thank you!

Hahah XD it’s such a solid game!

I am going to put everything in my mouth.

So many more . . . . so, carful what you wish for. The next one references poodle licking.

Wow, thanks!

More root :) - some solo games first and foremost!

@@Quackalope are there expansions for Root that you think are great and add to the core game? I only have the basic game. The issue is it's hard to ever get a game going, so I never feel like adding MORE is a smart thing to do. But if some of that more would make the base game just better... Then I would give that a try.

@@binnieb173 Root Veteran here. I have everything but the playmates. Root is notoriously hard to table because most people feel like it's too much for them. Because of this I'd say your first expansion should be Clockwork 1 so that you can play it solo or at lower player counts but with bots to keep the golden four faction player count up. Once you have that I'd grab the Exiles and Partisans deck for the first small thing. It's a significantly better deck but also gives you some interesting variety to the game. Beyond that I think it depends on what you like most about Root. Do you like big army factions? Maybe go Marauder. It gives you two great heavyweight factions. Though the Keepers in Iron are notoriously complex to master. While the Lord of Hundreds is just a fun big army faction. It will also give you an introduction to hirelings. Both of these elements of more big army factions and hirelings make two player root way more fun. But let's say you like more insurgent factions and like learning more unique and complex factions. And you really like the vagabond: Go Riverfolk. It will give you a faction of cultist bent on converting the woodland to their dark faith and a marketplace faction that is trying to make bank by selling their wares and mercenaries. You will also get three new vagabonds as well as a second vagabond board so that you can have two vagabond players at once. If you absolutely love the vagabond and have the Riverfolk expansion: grab the Vagabond pack. It will give you three new vagabonds as well as a custom meeple for every vagabond in the game. Giving you a total of 9 vagabonds to choose from. Want a taste of both a new militant faction and an insurgent faction and want more maps to play on? Go Underground expansion. You'll get a ministry of royal moles bent on colonizing the surface. Able to dig and pop up anywhere on the map and conquer clearings while they build their engine of royal ministers to gain more power. Or be an underground cell of saboteurs. Planting bombs and traps and playing mind games with your hidden plots to keep your opponents guessing. Then play on two new maps with a mountain map with new paths that you can uncover and a king of the hill mechanic at its center. Or a lake map with a giant lake in the middle making travel more limited with a raft that players will battle for control over. Root is very versatile. I really recommend getting it all but I built my collection gradually. If you want a good path I'd say follow what sounds interesting to you. But first and foremost grab the first clockwork expansion so that you can table Root whenever you want and won't be pulling teeth to try and get people to play it. TL:DR: 1. Clockwork 1> 2. Exiles and Partisans Deck > 3. Choose what you want more off: More militant factions + Hirelings: Marauder / More Insurgent Factions + more Vagabond: Riverfolk + Vagabond Pack / Bit of both Militant and Insurgent factions + More maps: Underground. > 4. If you have all of the big expansions then completionism would mean grab the Clearing Markers, Clockwork 2 and the remaining Hirelings and the playmats.

Back to the Root(s)!

The new deck of cards for sure and I like the corvid but they are best with the higher counts :) Clockworks are cool - digging into them now.

We doing it, we having fun!

Hey, thanks!

More to come :)

Solid, I’m so glad you’re enjoying the new season!

Wow. TI would be one if I had a group (and time)!

Don’t be heartbroken about my reading :) it’s just dyslexia!

Much appreciated! Lorcana was not deep enough for us :)

Thanks so much :) life is good!

More to come! Mostly with how consumable games are . . . but also some real game content as well!

Glad you enjoyed it

Yea, it’s wild how easy it is to chase the new hot thing in this industry and forget about your true loves :)

Glad to add to the list!

Haha, more on the way! Working on some tonging :)

Aww thanks :P

Such a wonderful store dh

XD . . . get more games!

Both are solid - I have been playing uprising the most . . . . But I might still like the original more.

Oh thank you!

Some great games to dig into deeply! I just . . . Can't get into chess. The memorization of movements is too much!

Cheers! :) glad to be here!

Agree!!!

I haven’t played it yet :)

Big box would be greet! I’m sure it’s in their plans - it’s too successful and would be a money maker for them.

Oh, the flavor profile of games is coming back :)

Amazing! Can’t wait to get some more plays of it in! I have it organized and hope to play tonight :)

If we can find the time absolutely!

I don’t know if a scoring system is set up - would be fun to find out! It’s a bit random at times though :) so, maybe hard to gauge!

Classic, I obsessed over it for one and half games . . . Now I hate it :)

@@Quackalope Yeah the simple math is not for everyone. The worst is when you mess your turn up and nobody lets you fix it.

Come hangout! Let me know your number (email) and I’ll add you to the what’s app group :)

I have it organized and working on learning it today!

These games are some of the most delectable :)

I like the board game system and prefer to be off my phone as much as possible.

Come on over :) . . . no, like, really . . . when are you free?

have you went back to it with the expansions added in? For me, they really stepped the game up to another level!

That’s to bad - I enjoy the story (due to dyslexia I don’t often notice errors to be honest) and really like the mechanics engine behind it! I’m also a bit more forgiving to small or new publishers. This is by far the most indi game in the list. I can see those frustrations being a limiting factor however! So I understand :)

Haha, I like some of the changes and I don't mind the re-buy. Honestly, I think it has some legs to stand on! However, I understand the annoyance :)

XD Quack

No, I was an Addictive game . . . now I am a husband :D

Nope! It’s available from their website - I put it in the description!

. . . This list makes you think that? :) I like story, I love RPG's, but . . . this list is not a collection of RPG like games! I has quite a range / mix of options.

Well, we are about to dive neck deep into it again :)

​@@Quackalope What is the BEST expansion of Root?I wanna buy,but which one..? Thanks

It was on the chopping block about 2 years ago. At the time we didn’t have a group to play it, the channel was covering everything else and shira did not like it. Now, I’m digging back into the games that made me fall in love with the hobby.
