Tsuro

We just had a chance to test another tile placing board game. This time it was Tsuro.
So far I have played a two player game against Njam-Njam (its him on the photo).

I have to say that tile placing mechanism is getting quickly up on my list of game mechanics.
Tsuro was just great.

We have played several games and as Njam Njam noticed, we were playing really non aggressive, each of us keeping to our own half of the board, and getting competitive only with last tiles.

With more players game should be quicker and should bring even more fun,  since interaction probably happens sooner.

A great game anyway. I wander if it can be played solo....

Even more purchasing

I wanted this game for a long time, and finally it is here:

I had a chance to play the basic version earlier, so naw I am eager to dig into expansion :)

Shopping mania

For years I was naughty solo RPG player. While everybody else bathed in their excellence, I was the only one who postponed purchasing them....

But finally I also succumbed to their call, and here they are...

 

My own set of Rory's Story Cubes!

I hope that now I have them I will find time to continue my RuneQuest adventure....

 

And when I already went shopping, I decided to also purchase some expansions for my favorite games....

 

So, I bought Agricola - farmers of the moor, although with my current time table I have no idea when I will be able to play it....

I also bought Carcassonne expansion No 6 - Count, King and River; this will see its first play much sooner.

Finally, I brought into my house a long awaited Kids of Carcassonne game. My older kid, age 3, is maybe still to small to play it, but all my nephews and nieces (all aged between 5 and 10) just love it! This is a game I definitely recommend.

Plastic soldiers lost in action

For several days now, the well known web page Plastic Soldier Review is not available on the internet.

This page was the best resource for 1/72 plastic soldiers for all periods and for all manifacturers.

Does anyone know what happened to them? 

NEW INFO:
After some server problems, it seems that they will be back soon. Good news :)
