Yeah, but did they purchase more than 10 companies? I'm pretty sure that once you're 11 or bigger you can't be acquired.

Is Sag making a joke? A reference to some game mechanic I'm unaware of?

He is making a reference to Acquire.
I'm a little worried for some people that I know personally who work at Asmodee North America. They went from two employees circa 2000 to 80+ last year. A buyer is likely to look for some quick cost-cutting in payroll to recoup part of their investment.

In the US market, the only toy/game companies large enough would be Mattel or Hasbro, right? They are both hurting from the collapse of TRU, so maybe this would be a quick way to stabilize (and it has an established pipeline and distribution)? I'm not familiar enough with the European market to know if they have a similar company that is at that size.

Could it also mean that Asmodee is dumping its board game assets given the new trade war with China? Perhaps, ROI won't be as good since the profits will go down without cheap Chinese manufacturing and labor?
