Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.
Rules:
- Play nicely with others here.
- Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
- Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

I recommend eclipse:second dawn over twilight imperium. Almost the same experience in half the game time.
Hey, now. Some of us actually enjoy the absolute chaos of a 9-player TI game that takes 2-3 consecutive sessions of a mere 16hrs each. In fact, I know at least four of them! ๐
I will have to look into that. I have a whole spreadsheet about space-themed conquest/diplomacy games that I'm thinking of trying to get them into. I have to find a game with the right feeling for this group because they're very picky (in a good way) so I appreciate your suggestion.
There is a digital version so you can try it without dropping serious money on it if you want :)
