Throughout this month, @trentellingsen and I are putting all of our efforts toward combining Board Game Prices with Board Game Atlas! For those who aren't aware, we launched BGA in 2019 and acquired BGP in late 2019. We've mostly left BGP alone as is, except for patching up bugs every now and then. Now we're finally making the move to combine the two and provide a better community and more reliable data for both websites.
To promote this "launching event," we'll be giving away more than $5000 worth of board games until the end of 2020 and here's Round 2: Out of Print/Rare Games.
I will announce the results of the $200 gift cards giveaway in a few hours. Oh boy... :D

Inis is the most beautiful game I own bar none.
I would also love to get my hands on #Age of Steam: Deluxe Edition. I've been watching too much Heavy Cardboard recently to not.

I'm really looking forward to trying out Inis with my wife. I still need to brush up on the rules for #Pax Pamir (Second Edition) since she wanted to give it a try though.
I'm just waiting for that first impressions post from you on #Nemo's War (Second Edition) some day. Perhaps @Skurvy5 will share soon and make me go for it before everything else haha. But yeah, with everyone's influence, I now have Too Many Bones, Nemo's War, and #Star Wars: Rebellion all fighting for that #1 spot on my wishlist. Wish CTG had some sort of holiday sales xD.......

I have thought about buying #Nemo's War (Second Edition), but not that many videos on playing with mutiple people has stopped.

I did not think you could play #Inis at 2-players! Hopefully it goes well! I am very curious how Pax goes!
I will get Nemo's War eventually lol...I honestly think TMB has more legs though. Lots of different Gearlocs, lots of different Tyrannts and Baddies and works well at solo and multiplayer. Nemo's War I have heard only works well at solo!

It's here! The box looks awesome. Now.... I can't believe that Zatu shipped these four copies from the U.K. without a single packaging material inside. Fortunately, it seems like three of the boxes only has minor "damage" with small rips on the shrink wrap here and there. For our office copy, looks like the box cover had finishing issues where I can see slight "bubbles" and there are even a few hard bumps where it seems like the finish was placed over some kind of debris. I also opened up our office copy and saw that it has one of those cardboard "inserts" inside, which has a rip on one of the edges. Again, not a big deal, but just not the best unboxing experience! Hope you future winners won't mind too much, and I sure hope our office copy is in the worst shape)
As a reminder, the giveaway for Inis will end on Sunday! Good luck everyone :)

WHOA IT'S SO PRETTY. A lot of people seem to prefer the original cover art, but I'm partial to this newer cover...
And as for the minor damage, never look a gift horse in the mouth :)

All of the art in this game is awesome. The card art is kind of crazy looking!

Would just like to add that they got Jim FitzPatrick to do the artwork. He's famous for this style of art
theDL Moderator Level 126 months ago
Oh yeah? What else is he known for? Other games or non-game related art?
cfylam 26 months ago
The iconic red, black and white portrait of Che Guevara. You can read up more about him at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Fitzpatrick_(artist) and visit his website if you want https://jimfitzpatrick.com/ I'm a fan of his artwork if that wasn't obvious. I'm not sure if he's done any other game artwork

Wow, talk about a varied career! That's super interesting, thanks!

Not sure actually, but I opened it up to double check that the rulebook and the text on the cards are in English. And yes, it's in English lol
nealkfrank 26 months ago
That is awesome! The cover just has some different looking language, maybe it is just Celtic?
CutGlass 26 months ago
You mean the French text?
"Au coeur des légends celtiques" means "at the heart of the Celtic legends".
