    I love Wingspan. It’s a great game and the expansions make it even better (I have Europe And Oceania).

    I’ve thought about buying the Nesting Box for it too but it’s so expensive for what is essentially an empty box.

        The Nesting Box is $70 and it’s a box designed to hold Wingspan and all it’s expansions. I can see the use of such a thing because it’s currently a bit of a pain setting up a game when the components are spread out over multiple boxes but I just don’t think it’s worth the cost.

        The Nesting Box does not come with the base game or any expansions and is solely used to store those items.

    Root is complex, so you need to have someone to really know the rules. But as soon everyone understand what its faction is supposed to do to win, it’s pure pleasure!

      If you like Splendor and often play at 2 then Splendor Duel is definitely worth checking out. The new draft and new win conditions change things up quite a bit. I still like to go back to regular Splendor too though when I am in the mood for that pure Splendor goodness.

      Oh boi, splendor duel is a two player version of it that by many accounts is better than the original splendor (for sure if you play with two players)

    I am jealous, mine are still sitting in the queue. Last year it took almost a month.
    Which day were you able to release the holds?

    For impulse, I will guess some of the smaller ones since we tend to take more risks with those. Canvas and Radlands perhaps? (Both of those are great btw) And maybe Splendor Duel, guessing you already had regular Splendor so you were hesitant about getting Duel too.

      It’s a 2-player only card battler. You fight in multiple lanes and try to destroy each other bases. The cards have relatively simple abilities that can combo together and you can also use them for discard effects. Water is a resource used to pay for playing cards, managing your water and your card draws is very important. Cool art, good card quality, not too expensive.
