Credibility, like a butterfly, is a fragile and beautiful thing. Mark is fundamentally opposed to subtlety and ephemeral joy, so he naturally seeks to destroy either whenever he encounters it. When it comes to credibility he does this by routinely making gross over-generalizations. This time he has managed to make an instant replay-esque correction, at least. As for what he does to butterflies, let's just say he manages to make garden parties awkward.Games Played Last Week: -Bios: Megafauna 2nd Edition 3m08s (Andrew Doull, Phil Eklund, & Jon Manker, Sierra Madre, 2017)-Brook City 6m37s (Adam Sadler & Brady Sadler, Blacklist Games, 2019)-Rayguns and Rocketships 12m06s (Scott Rogers, IDW Games, 2017)-A Game of Thrones: Catan--Brotherhood of the Watch 15m45s (Klaus Teuber & Benjamin Teuber, Fantasy Flight, 2017)News (and why it doesn't matter)-Walker expands what he no longer has 22m00s-Wherefore art thou, journalism?

Summer is here, friends and neighbours, and with it comes a a thickening of the blood that prompts torpor. We here at SVWAG are part lizard, you see, and so we must budget additional time to sun ourselves and slough off our scales.

Shelley and I delve into two smaller-box card-based games from different areas of the world this week. Riga by Stefan Risthaus from Ostia Spiele finds the players gaining commodities in the Baltic and then building structures in other Baltic area cities. Rataneer by Hisashi Hayashi from Okayzu Brand has the players steering competing boats of rat pirates through various actions to gain money and assistance, then plunder the oceans and trade in stolen goods!

(provisional)

Shelley and I have a fantastic time with two newer games from the related publishers ADC Blackfire and Spielworxx Gentes by Stefan Risthaus from Spielworxx and Calimala by Fabio Lopiano from ADC Blackfire

Shelley and I tackle the fantastic BIG game from Stronghold, and then a mini game from OSTIA Spiele: Terraforming Mars by Jacob Fryxelius from Stronghold Games and Visby by Stefan Risthaus from OSTIA Spiele

Shelley and I get another GREAT game from Essen 2016 to the table - addictively playing it MANY times in a row, then throw in a dessert micro game for good measure. Ave Roma by Attila Szögyi from A-Games and Tallinn by Stefan Risthaus from Ostia Spiele
