Western Legends was my number 1 game for a few years and still sits in my top 5, but Dead Reckoning took over that #1 spot. Are you going to try Western Legends Stories? When it comes out would love to get your opinion on it and how it compares to base WL. Thanks for putting this list together!
Bryan, you taught me Western Legends on Dice Tower cruise 2021. I had such a great time. Karla, we have so much crossover. Great list guys. Thanks for the videos!
I've got Western Legends, Ankh, Ark Nova, and up until recently Obsession. Want to try TI4 at some point. My buddy got Scythe and we just played it for the first time last week!Such fun games listed! My top right now are probably... Dune Imperium Uprising On Mars Andromeda's Edge Veiled Fate Castles of Burgundy Rising Sun Arcs Lords of Waterdeep Dwellings of Eldervale Lost Ruine of Arnak/Ark Nova
@@Shax-80 it's more area control/engine building than dudes on a map or intense than I thought it would be. It is fun and seems extremely well designed. I'm still glad my friend owns it not me.
@@DicetowerBryan it's been a big hit with my gaming group. Awesome toy factor and big moments as far as companies merging and early investments paying off.
I need to play more western legends. I need to know how to beat the gold digger strat in the base game. Do the expansion help stop digging in the gold mine?
I bought Sheriff of Nottingham and Western Legends around 5 years ago and finally played Sheriff of Nottingham for the first time with some family members last night. Before covid hit (2020), I was playing games at least once a month, and then it came to a dead stop. It's been really hard getting people back together to start gaming again.... Great video, thank you both!
I think I would love this game but haven't bought it for that exact reason: the last time I've been able to group 4+ people around a table was ages ago. I miss my Dune the boardgame so much :(. Since Covid I only buy games for 1-2 player(s).
Flipping a TI table? I would not be happy. I try not to take stuff too seriously, but, that's one of my babies that just got scattered across the room.
I would love a 2nd edition that tightened up a couple things from the expansions and more cohesively made everything work together if you wanted to play with everything, but not that I know of.
@@DicetowerBryan It's strange, a game like RISK is almost 100% attacking someone else and it feels fine, but if someone uses a measly offensive card against me in Ark Nova, it feels so wrong. Other games too like Pax Pamir, when someone uses a spy against me, I feel so very offended. 😄
0:35 You should've left out Anachrony instead, because that would be a very approriate game for past Bryan's list to borrow from future Bryan. Just sayin'...
I do not get the love for River Valley Glassworks. It takes one part of the FAR superior game Caesar’s Empire and tries to make a game of it. No. Looks great, but nothing to it.
@ Thinking about it more, I think I need to try it live and not just online. The decisions always seemed obvious and not much control but maybe there’s some decisions I am missing.
Really dislike the presentation of this. Your list is ok-ish though. Where are the big 3? Z and the rest? Also, why no visual queues? Lastly, couple's top 10 list and guess what? Tons of crossovers.
I really dislike your opinion and lack of using the search feature to see that they’ve already done theirs 😂. Did you think telling me this kind of rude thing was somehow helpful?
That’s an awfully strong take lol! “I don’t like your face and voice and the clothes you wear or the country you come from and your last name” “I’m just expressing an opinion” may not be the defense you think it is. Plus asking for “The Big 3” in our video when they’ve already done one is a silly thing to say in my last video of the top 100 as if I’m going to change the style before I do another one in 4 years. And retreating behind, “I’m just helping you get better” assumes I want to do it in a different style.
Western legends is also my #1. Thank you Bryan!!!!
Amazing Top 10! River Valley Glassworks, Sagrada, Last Light, Western Legends are all amazing games.
I was pretty pumped at how different mine turned out from last time.
Thank you guys!

Thank you! Loved doing it.
Just played Western Legends Saturday it was fun.
I was just thinking to myself, Western ldgends is my second favorite game of all time and I'm sad it's never on any top 10 lists.
Great list guys.
It has just always been a great experience!
Bryan, Western Legends is also my #1 game. It's been #1 on my list for years now. Thanks for the great list, Bryan and Karla!
Let’s goooo!
💯@@DicetowerBryan
Really enjoyed this top 100
Thanks so much! We had a great time putting it together!
Thanks for the list! I've been wanting to play City of the Big Shoulders for a bit but had kind of forgotten about it. It is now back on my radar.
It was one of those ones that I knew I would love and it totally lives up to expectations
100% agree that River Valley killed Azul for me too.
Was a fun list! Thank you Drakes!
It was a blast!
Thanks for the honorable mention
You have been honored.
I've got Western Legends, Ankh, Ark Nova, and up until recently Obsession. Want to try TI4 at some point. My buddy got Scythe and we just played it for the first time last week!Such fun games listed!
My top right now are probably...
Dune Imperium Uprising
On Mars
Andromeda's Edge
Veiled Fate
Castles of Burgundy
Rising Sun
Arcs
Lords of Waterdeep
Dwellings of Eldervale
Lost Ruine of Arnak/Ark Nova
Solid choices!
Going to buy Scythe, better be good! 😉

Happy to see River Valley Glassworks in the list 🎉 I love it... Still surprised by some negative reviews out there with which I totally don't agree...
I was blown away by how much I love it!
Just got western legends and excited to try sometime soon. Going to check into city of the big shoulders. Really enjoy big boss. Ever try?
Big Boss to me is Metal Gear related lol! Is it?
@DicetowerBryan lol. 😂. Not quite. It's Wolfgang Kramer's take on aquire. Stock game that I've been enjoying a lot. 🙂
@@PBMatthews254Ah that sounds right up my alley!
@@DicetowerBryan it's been a big hit with my gaming group. Awesome toy factor and big moments as far as companies merging and early investments paying off.
Sagrada or River Valley Glassworks? If you could only play one.
Oh, that hurts, but I think I’m in my Rivervalley phase where I’m gonna pick it over Sagrada right now
Thanks.
I need to play more western legends. I need to know how to beat the gold digger strat in the base game. Do the expansion help stop digging in the gold mine?
It’s tough in the base game especially if trying to be a good guy
Is your scarab paintjob on bgg? Quite intrigued
Not yet but I’ll add it or on facebook

I still have never played Sheriff somehow! I hear it’s a blast.

Flipping a TI table? I would not be happy. I try not to take stuff too seriously, but, that's one of my babies that just got scattered across the room.
To be fair he left the table alone but threw down his cards and yelled wildly at the other guy granted it scattered the pieces.
Any word on Western Legends expansions getting reprints?
I would love a 2nd edition that tightened up a couple things from the expansions and more cohesively made everything work together if you wanted to play with everything, but not that I know of.
Ark Nova has the venomous animals to impede other players as well. But I've seen that happen so little I might forget that too!
Oh that’s right!! We try to avoid them unless we’re particularly sour 😂
@@DicetowerBryan I'm the same XD

@@Victor-779that is so accurate lol. I’m like how dare you! We are building animal habitats!

Just sayin'...
What an absolute missed opportunity!
ok.. i have to ask... if Scythe is a perfect game... how is not a 10 for you but a 9.5? lol
lol as I said it and edited it I thought….well that doesn’t add up lol!!!!
❤
Mansions of Madness? I prefer Arkham Horror LCG by far.
I do really like it too, don’t get me wrong I just don’t play it very much anymore.
I prefer AH LCG solo (two handed) and MoM as a group play.
I do not get the love for River Valley Glassworks. It takes one part of the FAR superior game Caesar’s Empire and tries to make a game of it. No. Looks great, but nothing to it.
Never played that one but I like it for the speed and ease of entry while also complex

How's expressing my opinion rude? I'm mentioning stuff that they could use to improve the quality of the content.@@DicetowerBryan

You are the reason why I would never have a youtube channel. Just people passing off their rude comments as "constructive criticism"
@@DicetowerBryanMakes it easier for me then! Are you in a video? Insta pass for me. Then we're all happy.
