Tabletop game makers Stonemaier Games are SUING President Trump over the tariffs on Chinese imports that jacked their production costs 145%. Will this mean the collapse of many geek hobby businesses? Toys, games and comics depend on China for cheap products, and many of the components literally cannot be manufactured here.

Amiche cultiste, cultisti. A un certo punto, qualcuno si sarebbe anche potuto domandare: “Sì, ma alla fine, bello ridere e scherzare con i Patreon, la Cricca, mangiare, bere, lettera e testamento. Ma di fatto, cosa avete davvero combinato in quasi 30 ore dentro quella serie di edifici distopici, tra saloni giganteschi, scale mobili che non portano da nessuna parte, finestre che danno su altre finestre, alla periferia nord di Bologna?”. In risposta a questa legittima osservazione, possiamo affermare che l'episodio di oggi è appunto una gustosa zuppa, una miscellanea di giochi, aneddoti, retroscena, che è fermentata nell'ombra ed è ora pronta a rilasciare il suo empio aroma all'interno dei vostri fini nonché bramosi palati. Da notare che Ale ha contribuito eroicamente pur trovandosi al confino in altro emisfero, giusto per farvi capire la dedizione.Alla fine possiamo dire che in questo episodio abbiamo messo veramente di tutto e rappresenta il degno, pirotecnico finale della prima fase per la nuova, evoluta esperienza PLAY. Vi raccontiamo tutto. Allacciate le cinture. Buon ascolto e come sempre… Ci vediamo dall'altra parte!Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dunwich-buyers-club--2814177/support.

Episode 574: Games that use movement points Episode release date is April 2, 2025   Show Notes   This week we are doing a one episode discussion of games that use movement points as a movement. What are movement points you ask? Well, movement points regulate how far a player can move their pieces during the game. For example, players are given a specific number of "points" that can be spent to move game pieces. Different spaces or terrains on the game board may cost varying amounts of movement points to enter. Players may receive a set number of movement points each turn that can be spread across multiple pieces. Those points could fluctuate depending on card draws or dice rolls.   Sometimes movement points can be part of a larger pool of actions, and movement can be part of or one of those actions.   In short, movement points provide a structured way to manage in game movement while adding a tactical element to gameplay.   So let's make it a point to move to the game table and discuss some games.   Sponsorship Game Toppers  SaltCON   Intro of Meeple Nation The World's Most Okayest Podcast Web Page Links to Episodes SaltPOD: A SaltCON Podcast Bios Email us at MeepleNation@gmail.com Patreon Instagram @meeplenation Facebook Meeple Nation Facebook Group Meeple Nation Off Air X Meeple Nation Discord Meeple Nation   Meeple Nation Highlights (Highlight-Thirty) Nathan Volunteer Group Flip 7 Douglas Outlive Andy Orléans   Games that use movement points Nathan Memoir ‘44 Clank!: A Deck-Building Adventure Game Maracaibo Specter Ops Tiny Epic Pirates The Hunger Near and Far Free Ride Secrets of the Lost Station Glory Island Concordia Concordia Venus Andy Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition) Clank!: A Deck-Building Adventure Game Maracaibo Near and Far Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Board Game Hyperborea Warrior Night Empire Builder Bardwood Grove Vanishing Planet Tiny Epic Pirates   Douglas Scythe War of the Ring: Second Edition Memoir ‘44 Clank!: A Deck-Building Adventure Game Dinosaur World Euthia: Torment of Resurrection - Fierce Powers / Crawling Shadows Endless Winter: River & Rafts    Telanislyon Carnegie has some interesting management choices in activating departments to move workers around for various economic functions. Carnegie is definitely a good game, I think it's tough to outcompete some of the newer ones though. It was a popular blip for a sec, then kinda floated down to the lower mid of bgg pack. It's still a good game, solid 7. Maracaibo would also have a choice of action to move your ship a certain distance also for triggering spaces. Not sure if that's totally true movement points, but fairly close The only other ones I can even think of would be troop movement for war games, like War of the Ring/for Arrakis or Axis & Allies. War of the Ring is awesome! Great 2p strategy game. War for Arrakis, same designer, basically the truncated version of War of the Ring in Dune!

Title: Top 5 Comfort Board Games

In our two hundred and fifty-first episode, Aaron is joined by Matt. We talk about Galactic Cruise, Atlantis: Exodus, and Paint the Roses in the BA Banter.

The Nintendo Switch 2 was announced on the same day the United States announced sweeping tariffs across every other nation on the planet. This caused the initial pre-orders for the Switch 2 to be delayed in the US. Vietnam, where Nintendo moved production to from China, had come to the negotiating table as of the recording of this show, and after recording this show, the reciprocal 46% tariff has been paused for 90 days (however the initial 10% still remains.) Board Games designed in the US are affected, too, because there just isn't the manufacturing capability or capacity in the US to do the specialty parts that many board games need. This means that board game prices will either soar, or people will just stop designing new board games. Tabletop Game makers are also facing some tough decisions about how to go forward with their business when the only good manufacturing for their niche product is in a highly tariff'd country.

Hark, and well met, weary travelers! Come, rest thyselves and lend thine ears to the grand tales woven by the Lords of the Dungeon. Lady Jess shall regale thee with the chronicles of thy city upon the bridge, a place of wonder and enigma. Thereafter, the council doth gather to speak on the matter of adventures - those drawn from dusty tomes of old, and those forged anew by the hands of mortal minds. At journey's end, they delve deep into spirited discourse, weighing the desires of the player 'gainst the will of the character. Sit ye back, and partake in this feast of wisdom and mirth!

Episode 573: Games with Multi-Use cards we don't own- Show Notes  Episode release date is April 2, 2025   This week wraps up our look at games featuring Multi-Use cards, focusing on highly-rated titles we haven't yet added to our collection. As a reminder, Multi-Use cards offer strategic depth by allowing a single card to serve multiple purposes. These purposes can include acting as text-based abilities, resources, life counters, or even determining player order, as well as many other options.  Come join us at the game table as we discover games with multi-use cards that we do not own.   Sponsorship Game Toppers  SaltCON   Intro of Meeple Nation The World's Most Okayest Podcast Web Page Links to Episodes SaltPOD: A SaltCON Podcast Bios Email us at MeepleNation@gmail.com Patreon Instagram @meeplenation Facebook Meeple Nation Facebook Group Meeple Nation Off Air X Meeple Nation Discord Meeple Nation   Meeple Nation Gaming Highlights (Highlight-Thirty) Nathan The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era Douglas Azul: Summer Pavilion Andy Aeon Trespass: Odyssey   Cory I would say that my favorite multi-use card game is the old Decipher Star Wars CCG. How your deck of cards was used as resources and life was a mechanic I really liked. I wish there were other games that used a similar mechanic. Too bad this game is long and gone. Telanislyon Blast from the past! Good game. I actually heard they were still running tournaments for this game. I also think the entire set is available for print online somewhere for free. I haven't played Disney Lorcana, but I thought the layout looked very similar to SWCCG. Sopdebop On the subject of multi use cards, I'd like to nominate SETI. Cards have 4 definite uses and can also be exchanged for other resources (free action, scan, tuck and card effect). I think that's impressive.  I also really like the cards in windmill valley. The assistant cards can be used for ongoing game bonus OR end game bonus. There is always one initial assistant left over which doubles as the queen's contract on the reverse too, which is neat imo.   Castle Combo Clarification Cory pointed out something I had missed when I taught Castle Combo. You can spend a key to wipe the current row of cards.

Trump tariffs on Chinese-made tabletop games could devastate the industry, forcing 50-60% production cost increases and potentially bankrupting small companies. The tariffs are effectively a tax on US consumers, not foreign producers, contradicting the stated purpose of protecting American industries. The US lacks sufficient industrial capacity for large-scale board game production, making it nearly impossible for companies to shift manufacturing domestically. Crowdfunded projects face particular risk, as products pre-sold years ago now face dramatically higher production costs, potentially leading to unfulfilled orders. Tariffs may force a shift to direct sales models, disrupting the existing distribution network and potentially eliminating hobby stores as intermediaries. Companies may need to downsize and lay off employees to survive, as tariffs could consume 20% of expected profits from initial print runs.
