Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
We are really happy to have you here. Unfortunately, being online we can't bond with you over a game so you'd know right away how happy we are to meet you. For now, you'll just have to take our word for it.
This site has always thrived on lively discussion and spirited but civil debate. We hope that newcomers here will find a welcoming atmosphere where game enthusiasts of all levels of experience and commitment will have something to add to the conversation. You never need to prove your “gamer cred” here. Whether you have been playing board games for a few months or a few decades; whether you have a huge collection or a small one; whether you have been a member here for years or just joined today – your opinion is valued here.
We know that it can be intimidating to jump into a new community and want to assure you that this is NOT the kind of forum where people will tell you that you posted something in the wrong place, or that you should have found an existing thread on the topic, or that you shouldn’t have resurrected an old thread.
So if you find a thread or an article discussion that interests you, whether it is old or new, feel free to jump in. Want to discuss a specific game or board gaming related topic just start a new topic. If you don’t know which forum to put it in, just make your best guess (we really don’t care all that much. It’s easy enough for a moderator to move it or merge it, if necessary).
A good place to get started is by introducing yourself in the “New Members Introduce Yourself” thread (below) or by telling us what you have been playing in the “What BOARD GAME(s) have you been playing?" thread ( therewillbe.games/forum/35-mos-eisley-ca...ave-you-been-playing ).
Have fun, and we look forward to hearing from you.
New Members Introduce Yourself
One of my first boardgames was Fortress America. :o)
I am a passionate fan (more accurately termed a fanatic) of Car Wars and other automotive combat tabletop games. My Web site and blog have a few links to resources for those games.

Apologies if the post on the other thread came across as harsh.

Cool! I love Car Wars...or at least when there's a CW brain on hand who can run all the rules for us. I few of my friends are really into it. They scale it to hot wheel sized cars. Their different fleets are awesome psychedelic mishmash of Canadiana, communism and motorhead post-apocalyptic eccentricities.

You didn't recognize that as a compliment?

Obviously he was referring to HOT children.

Favorite boardgames are Power Grid, New Era, DungeonQuest, Steam, Thunderstone, Tikal, Small World, Mission: Red Planet, T&E. Game I love to hate are Ticket to Ride, Agricola, Bang, Imperial (though this is a weird case), Trajan, and all these same-ass bullshit no point games coming out these days.
I supposedly love Lego, though I've had builder's block for about a year now (I do a daily Lego image blog at legodiem.tumblr.com). I supposedly love Doctor Who, though the show has been a pile of crap since Moffat took over. I read comics but not mainstream cape stuff (I've been on a French sci-fi kick lately). I've given up on new music for the most part and just listen to the things I already like. I've little patience with nerdery, both of the traditional and nerdbro types.
I think that's it for now.

Also, follow this dude on Twitter. Highly random and usually pretty funny.

I was recently snuffling through the forums on Another Website when I had a sudden and somewhat alarming insight into myself: I've said it loud and I've said it proud (I've even said it properly with adverbs): "I am a Eurosnoot", only I'm not, because I realised that not only do I not like most Euro-games, I don't like many of the people who play them. You know, the ones who have an orgasm whenever they utter the name "Caylus" (sorry about the C-word).
Oh well! Maybe a new, better life awaits.
