Last year Libby had a mission to get the first Map Pack, mainly as they only accepted cash and there were two queues for different languages ! Hoping to come back with as much Final Girl curios as possible ! Maybe even the frustration dice for Hostage Negotiator too?
@eVanDiesel no I haven't got any official minatures for Final Girl. But have you seen the painted minatures I use for Hostage Negotiator? I may have made the game a bit too dark!
Great list! Sky Team is top of my to get list. Matcha looks great and definitely something I’m going to check out. And the Abyss expansion! Lorcana is always on our radar. The others I’m excited about are the Faraway expansion, the La Famiglia expansion that makes it playable at 2, and the new Ticket to Ride Map Pack! That’s probably what I’m most excited for as it seems like forever since there was a map pack for Ticket to Ride. Soooo excited to be at Essen and to see you both ❤
We have now pre ordered Sky Team Turbulence to make sure we don't miss it as it's bound to be in HIGH demand! Faraway almost made the list, I think we will most likely take that home as its one of our favourite smaller boxed games that we have played so far this year.... oooh that sounds like a good video there!!
Glad you like them! Anything on your radar that's not made our list? - we have sooo many more games highlighted that could easily have made the list and are sure there are more still that we have not noticed yet
First of all... I just LOVE your t-shirt, Julian! One of my childhood favorites. I only own one expansion so far - the North Africa expansion for Distilled - but I plan on getting some in Essen as well. The Let's Go! To Japan expansions for example. Or the Distilled one they bring to Essen according to the Preview List.
Glad you like it! It's one of those tshirts that's aged to look like it's 30 years old when really it's new! I loved a Rescue Rangers game on the NES and the TV show of course (not so much the terrible film that came out a few years back though!) If you play Distilled a lot the Cask Strength expansion is good as it does alot to the market , which has since been carried over to Luthier
@@BoxedMeeples oh there is a point we disagree on. I did and do love the nes game and the original TV Show BUT I also liked the terrible film you are talking about. It was the topic of an earlier of my podcast episodes and I think it was... solid. Not great. But entertaining ^^ Well everyone has a different taste, I guess 😊
@Skyrodin I really enjoyed seeing Sanic but some of the acting was so very bad. But I was watching on a plane so maybe it lost its magic on the tiny plane screen
There are some fantastic ones on the way aren't there! Bonsai and Nucleum I think we will likely check out too. Starting to think we need the convention to stay on for another day as our list grows longer and longer 🤣
Took me forever to get that last Ark Nova map! Good luck! Missy did grab the Final Girl promo at Gencon, so there's that!!
