The Table Sat Empty – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

November 12, 2018 by Moe T. 4 Comments

This week I spent no time at the game table. That's right. Not once did I sit down and play a game with friends around the table. I think our Extra Life event, which I talked about last week, wiped everyone out. I know it took it's toll on me.

Now, that doesn't mean I didn't get in any gaming at all. I did manage to finish up a few games on Board Game Arena. [ READ MORE ]

Gaming at home, online and at the FLGS. Then a Happy Thanksgaming – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

October 8, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

It was a good week for me gaming wise. Quite a few games in both digital and in person.

Online I'm still playing Race for the Galaxy, 7 Wonders and lots of Tokaido. In person, we continued our Gloomhaven campaign and I got Istanbul: The Dice Game and the new printing of Saint Petersburg off my pile of shame. Then yesterday I hosted Thanksgaming where we got in plays of Lanterns: The Harvest Festival, Fuse, and Fallout. [ READ MORE ]

Another visit to Gloomhaven and a trip down the Tokaido – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

October 1, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

There was not a lot of gaming going on this week. It's cold season here in Windsor, which also means game night cancellation season.

So I only got in a couple of face to face games this week, both on Friday night: Gloomhaven followed by Azul. I also introduced our podcast host, Sean, to Tokiado over on Board Game Arena. [ READ MORE ]

Tabletop Gaming Weekly – Sept 24 – #WhatDidYouPlayMondays

September 24, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

I love #WhatDidYouPlayMondays. This was started over at Geeky Goodies. Every week people jump online and share what games they played last week. Since launching this blog I've been trying to take part every week. I wanted to do a bit more than just give a list of games. I can do that on Twitter. Here I can do so much more. So every week I will be talking about all of the games that hit the table in the previous week.

I've been playing more games on Board Game Arena. This week we added Terra Mystica to the regular rotation of 7 Wonders and Race for the Galaxy. Out in the real world, we got in not one but two games of Gloomhaven. I finally got Sean (my podcast co-host) to play Terraforming Mars and the kids "forced" me to run Mermaid Adventures for them.
