Well, we finally did it. We played CATAN, and it was ... good! And then we started wondering, is there anything that's done quite the same thing that that game is doing? And then that got us wondering how many games there are like that, where it's genuinely hard to say that nothing has done it better since. And then that got us wondering if, instead of all this wondering, we should record a podcast episode. Before we wander, we talk about Box Two, Catan: Cities & Knights, and An Infamous Traffic. 02:47 - Box Two 09:18 - Catan: Cities & Knights 19:50 - An Infamous Traffic 31:58 - Has anyone done it better? 32:26 - Catan 35:55 - Concordia 36:17 - Rise of Tribes 37:31 - Space Base 39:26 - Archipelago 40:38 - Dominion 41:17 - Aeon's End 42:22 - Star Realms 42:32 - Shards of Infinity 44:43 - Diplomacy 44:59 - Dune 46:48 - Battle for Rokugan 47:04 - A Game of Thrones: The Board Game (Second Edition) Get added to the BGB community map at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/map Send us topic ideas at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/topics Check out our wiki at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/wiki Join the discussion at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/discord Join our Facebook group at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/facebook Get a Board Game Barrage T-shirt at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/store

Star trek CCG vs Star Realms, Empire in the Old World, Nosferatu, and Noble Knight makes Joe angry
In what is essentially part 2 of the PaxU experience, this episode features Tuff taking center stage to share his experiences at the con, where he participated in both the Star Realms and Hero Realms Legends tournaments. The crew first dives into the Star Realms event, where a controversial ruling against Tuff created some unexpected turbulence. This sparks a larger conversation about shuffling techniques and the nuances of playing in paper. But the story doesn't end there! The Hero Realms tournament the following day offered a shot at redemption. With immaculate shuffling and sharp gameplay, Tuff fought his way to an impressive second-place finish.

When game time is limited, getting the most out of the game nights you do have can be important. In addition to sharing our game night optimization tips, we announce our giveaway winners and talk about what we've been playing lately, including first thoughts on a couple small box games from Envy Born Games. We finish off with three detailed reviews, including King's Coalition from new game company Play to Z games, The Crooked Crown, a take that game from Outset Media, and the Jaws Robot Pack for Robot Quest Arena from Wise Wizard Games.

Az Enterprise egy csillagködöt térképez fel, egy fedélzeten élő kislány pedig meglepődve tapasztalja, hogy képzeletbeli barátja megelevenedik. Míg a hajó előrehaladása nehézségekbe ütközik, az idegen gyermek egyre több engedetlenségre veszi rá a kislányt, egy idő után pedig odáig fajul a helyzet, hogy a rejtélyes látogató a legénységet is fenyegetni kezdi.

The premier community event in all of Realms Rising is the Tavern Brawl and in this episode of Sparks and Recreation, the crew reviews a recent IRL Tavern Brawl event while also previewing the upcoming digital Tavern Brawl. Filtrophobe and DblDubz are joined by Tuff and BirdLaw to break it all down including the lore, formats, and even strategy surrounding team composition under the new rules. They also give some early thoughts on level 22 Arena testing and the most recent Alchemist changes. Be sure to stick around for the Community Round-up where Across the Realms is discussed. Note: In the show, it was said that all three core sets of Star Realms are required to participate in Across the Realms. We'd like to make the correction that the minimum requirement is the Vanilla core set of Star Realms.

La construcción de mazos es una mecánica y un género relativamente nuevos. Apareció por primera vez en Dominion, de 2008, y sus continuaciones han imitado a menudo las estructuras básicas de Dominion. La idea básica es que las cartas pueden proporcionar acciones, moneda para usar sólo en el turno actual o puntos de victoria. En el Dominion básico, casi todas las cartas proporcionan sólo uno de estos usos, pero muchos creadores de mazos posteriores las combinaron y ofrecieron a los jugadores la posibilidad de elegir cómo usar cada carta. Algunos juegos también se han expandido más allá de estos límites, como las bases que persisten en los tableros de los jugadores hasta que son destruidas en Star Realms.00:00:00 - Inicio00:01:51 - Preview del Campamento Barton 202400:14:08 - Origen de los juegos de construcción de mazos00:18:56 - Juegos de Construcción de mazo o deckbuilding01:37:32 - Nuestras recomendaciones de juegos de construcción de mazos o deckbuilding01:49:42 - AlteredJuegos que se nombran en este episodio:- Arctic Scavengers (2009)- Thunderstone (2009) Dragones y Mazmorras- Tanto Cuore (2009)- Puzzle Strike (2010)- Ascension: Deckbuilding Game (2010) introdujo el draft en el Deskbuilding- Barbarossa (2010)- Quarriors (2011) no deja de ser un derivado de dados- Friday (2011)- Blood Bowl Team Manager (2011)- Rune Age (2011)- Mage Knight Board Game (2011)- Core Worlds (2011)- A Few Acres of Snow (2011)- Eminent Domain (2011)- Nightfall (2011)- Copycat (2012)- Trains (2012)- Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game (2012)- Lewis & Clark (2013)- Rococo (2013)- A Study in emerald (2013)- Concordia (2013)- Asgard's Choosen (2013)- Star Realms (2014)- Valley of the Kings (2014)- Roll for the Galaxy (2014)- Hyperborea (2014)- Mythotopia (2014)- Baseball Highlihts (2015)- Hero Realms (2016)- Hands in the Sea (2016)- Aeon's End (2016)- Tyrants of the Underdark (2016)- Clank (2016)- Great Western Trail (2016)- Millenium Blades (2016)- Mystic Vale(2016)- Flamme Rouge (2016)- The Quest for el Dorado (2017)- Too many Bones (2017)- Harry Potter Howards Battle (2017)- Time of Crisis (2017)- After the virus (2017)- The Path of Light and Shadow (2018)- Pócimas y Brebajes (2018)- Obsesión (2018)- War Chest (2018)- Tainted Grail (2019)- Undaunted Normandy (2019)- Lost Ruins of Arnak (2020)- Dune Imperium (2020)- Cubitos (2021)- Rocketmen (2021)- Heat (2022)- Star Wars the Deck Building Game (2023)Enlaces:Canal de anuncios de Telegram: https://t.me/visludicaGrupo de Telegram: https://t.me/visludicaarmyPara escucharnos en audio: https://visludica.com

In episode 63 of Game Design Unboxed: Inspiration to Publication we talk with two Magic: The Gathering Hall of Famers Robert Dougherty and Darwin Kastle, the designers of Star Realms. They speak about how their love of trading card games and wanting to help Darwin find a job brought the deckbuilder known as Star Realms into reality. Their development process was fueled by wanting to beat each other until they balanced out the cards. Thanks to a friend they created an app for the game that has increased the game's fan base over the years. Plus, they talk about their approach to expansions and spin-offs. Check out the special announcement at the end of the episode that you don't want to miss! Featuring: Robert Dougherty - Guest Darwin Kastle - Guest Danielle Reynolds - Host
