I'm liking the quality of these recent videos. The zoom out when you started talking about the games worked really well 👍🏼. Caesar is on my to buy list.
This years gen con had a lot of great games, but unfortunately I was unable to secure any games! I was able to get cosmoctopus though, signed by the creator!
Great list, and great approach to thetopic including games like Caesar! and Mille Fiori. My favorite of these here for straight-up area control is probably Kemet. Ethnos is my favorite that leans more towards area majority.
Kemet is superb! Actually I just bought ethnos at dice tower East and have been so excited to get it to the table! Thanks for commenting Chris! It was an honor to play pirate billiards at DTE with you!
Not really sure, I think I just get frustrated sometimes feeling like there's nothing I can do to come back against an opponent in area control games. Maybe that's a me thing though lol. I've noticed I've been enjoying games where area control is part of the game but not the main focus. And I like participating in area control stuff too so I'm not sure what it is exactly@@925Gamers
There should be a join button when you watch my videos or on my page in the sliding menu. If it doesn’t appear there you can use a computer to go on the actual UA-cam website and find my channel and join from there
@@925Gamers it was simply not enough fun and investing all those hours in learning and then teaching all the peculiarities of ruleset for each side felt overrated
Lol appreciate you sticking around anyway, but honestly you can totally skip the intro, it’s got a time stamp on it! No need to listen to the beginning! Skip to what you came for! Plus the beginning was a reminder of a give away I was doing which finished already.

Great topic Area Control Games are my absolute favorite. Love to see if this years Gen Con has anything new to add to your list.

Scythe is a fantastic game that I don't have the urge to play and when I have 5 players, I tend to go for wonderland's war.
Wonderland's War is on my to play list. Thematically, it looks amazing. My only worry is it looks heavy. Is there a learning curve with it?

@925Gamers Come to think of it Pirate Billiards should also have made the list! :P
Awesome finding a copy of Ethnos. Hope you end up enjoying it!
@@DTChrisYi lol! How careless of me! Next list I will put it on there
Never been a huge fan of area control, but it's been growing on me. Been wanting to try more and more of them
Why do you think that is

Great video, thanks for sharing your experiences.
@@jecabreradc of course anytime! What are some of your favorite area control games? Did I miss any
@@925Gamers Not very experienced but could perhaps add Shogun, Cyclades and Forbidden Stars to your list. Thanks for asking.
@@jecabreradc sounds good I’ll check those out now! I have Cyclades but haven’t played it yet. I have played Inis and Kemet as well
Dumb question: where do we go (what link) to actually become a member?

@@925Gamerscool thanks! Not seeing it on my phone…may have to get out the desktop and see.
@@oneysnyder2116 oh man that would be super awesome of you!!!
He you tried Mission Red Planet :)? Its on the mean and crazy side of things but at lower player counts it is pretty strategic.
I have not! It's on my list of games to try at a convention soon hopefully
@@925Gamers its a lot like El Grande actually except waay meaner and being second or third in an area gives yo nothing hah.
Just played scythe 4 player and I thought it lagged a little bit. Still fun though!
Love these top 10 lists
Have you tried Cry Havoc
I have not! How is it?
@@925Gamers great battle mechanics and area control and asymmetric factions
The game is awesome so if you know someone who has it to try it and it is also hard to find
Riding Sun
Did you mean rising sun.
How is Inis at 2 player count
Like most area control games, the experience is best at max player count! I would recommend playing at 3-4 players
Thank you for quick response 👍
@@danasimpson1275 no problem! My pkeasure
Root is the biggest disappointment i have ever had in terms of board games
Ouch my heart! What did you dislike about it? Super interested!
@@925Gamers it was simply not enough fun and investing all those hours in learning and then teaching all the peculiarities of ruleset for each side felt overrated
I’m two minutes in and just listening to rules. Bro get on with the video!!!
