What are you playing this weekend?
I'll recieve some used games I bought: Ora et Labora, Stronghold 2nd, Hanamikoji and Macao.
I'm eager to play Hanamikoji with my with and will be playing Clash of Culture in a 3p table. I may try Ora et Labora or Macao solo, but planning to play some Baseball Highlights 2045 against the automa.
Have some nice plays, friends!

Got to play Barrage and Aegean Sea last night.
Barrage is my favorite Luciani design so far, by a long shot, compared to Darnwin’s Journey and Golem. I didn’t actually do that well, but I’m itching to play again.
Aegean Sea is very different from the other Carl Chudyk games I’ve played. The cards tend to be pretty restrictive in what they do and need, so there are often cards in hand that you can’t play. This means the gameplay leans more heavily on tactical play from turn to turn, blocking opponents where possible and figuring out what the best move you can perform with a given hand of cards. Still feels very deep in terms of learning how best to leverage your unique faction and how to control the pace of the game.
@Allenthar Aegean Sea; how many players? My copy showed up yesterday and I'm thinking about when I can spring it on some of my group.
I wouldn’t play your first game with more than 2-3. Between the asymmetric faction abilities and the fact that card effects can require very specific situations to be usable makes the first couple games pretty rough. I feel like after a game I can play the game at a decent pace, but I’m only just starting to understand how to even score points.
