Damn I'm excited to watch this. The Muppet Show reruns on YTV was my jam.

Our (Canadian) military announced they've started modelling/theorycrafting for an invasion from the US for the first time in over a century. So that's a cool thing thanks to the people who voted down there...

Agreed! And 7 Wonders Duel is a great distillation for 2 players that still keeps that draft feel.

My first pack had a foil Goyf in it and I was stoked. It was worth so like $500 then and I've held on to it and I'm sure it's worth so much more now...

Deck builder (i.e. Dominion)or Deck Building (construct a deck before you play like Magic)? Dragon Eclipse is a campaign game that's virtually just pokemon (trainers collecting monsters) where you build two decks for your two creatures you take into each chapter.

Yeah David Turczi has designed some absolutely banger solo games (and is often brought in to make solo modes for other people's games).

My wife's a Trek fan (more than me) but this one would be heavier than she usually likes for games so it'd be solo only for me.

Ugggh I've been putting off buying this for a bit now 😅 I **really** enjoy Imperium that this is sort of a spin-off of.

I think Media Studies is still in the Ontario curriculum, but it's an optional grade 11? English course and it wasn't terribly popular 30 years ago; can't imagine it's gotten more popular. Opting-in to additional English classes was a hard sell back then, gotta be near impossible these days.

Seven, that they're describing as a scheduling "quirk" (...they make the schedule...) but they've assured us next year they'll return the "regular" six sets a year.

Regular six sets a year...

That was my go to in my judging time. "Are you cheating or are you wasting everyone's time? Pick one."

I liked the world and mechanics, just found it sometimes frustrating at solo due to some scaling issues.

Earthborne Rangers is highly recommended though I bounced off it for solo, but I think it'd really shine at two players (or playing two handed).

It's a fairly lengthy campaign (20-30 "games") and it's draw is being somewhat open world. There's a through-line story but you go off and side mission.

Been on my to-do list for a while...
