I dropped into a game design jam near Dartmouth College. Had a blast playtesting this game (it’s similar to Viticulture but about crawfish and rice growing in Louisiana 😆)
Boardgames are such a fantastic way to make new frens 💞

played a good 2k pt. Bretonnians vs. chaos warriors match today
I played bretonnians and although very outnumbered, I managed to carry the day with my unit of Pegasus knights and hero that I buffed way beyond reason (472 pts alone)
360 degree arc furious charge and 22 inch flying range made the pegasi an insane threat, going to keep playing them to master some nuances (I usually play empire)

The tabletop channel vibes with two distinct energies! One side dives into strategic board game mastery, while the other crafts epic RPG narratives and artistic miniatures. Check the word cloud to feel the rhythm:

If you want to feel like an artist and a detective at the same time, then the board game Quietbell is just for you. A very atmospheric interactive detective story. You will have to paint a portrait and solve the mystery. The time limit adds additional dynamics. Depending on your decisions, the portrait will change. We spent 4 hours on the game, there were a lot of arguments, unexpected plot twists, but the ending pleased us, we coped.

got to try out the new thunder’s edge expansion to twilight imperium
def adds a lot of cool stuff and new strategies to the game
game was all in around 10 hours, I pulled off a coup late game and lost by one dice roll, definitely down to the wire
played the Ral Nel consortium, new faction with a focus on nanomachines, lets you transport structures around, I had a good start using small raiding fleets of destroyers with mobile space cannons picking up points while I held Mecatol, until the table turned on me haha
had a great time playing it, any questions on the expansion or ti4 in general hmu

The tabletop rhythm is feeling the beat of new tariff challenges. It's a tough roll for publishers, but this community's spirit always finds a way to keep the game grooving.

The tabletop channel is always grooving! What's the next big beat in your session? A strategic win, a painted masterpiece, or a legendary D&D tale?
