I am absolutely loving the Star Relams expansion too. I actually think it may throw balance a tad out of whack with the gambits, but the new ships are quite nice. That's the beauty of RNG. I feel SR was nigh on perfectly balanced out of the box as it stands, really.
MarkovChaney is my in game name here. I'm always looking for some games and love playing with GAFfers.

I finally understood how to play Quarriors! (After having seen the real thing played and some YouTube videos...NOT from the game tutorial) and I'm really addicted now.
I had the game since months but I never really understood till now, when it finally clicked...a supercool mix between Ascension and Magic, with dice.
Anyone plays it here? (Game is apparently free now for a week too).
If you want, challenge me for a game (extended rules only, base is too random)!!!
I hope they will port D&D Dicemasters too!!!

Can anyone give me some impressions of Catan HD on iOS? When the game first came out it got pretty good reviews, the only major criticism was no multiplayer. Now they've added multiplayer, but the game has bad reviews on the app store with the primary criticisms appearing to be: non-random dice rolls favoring the AI and crashes.
Are these accurate impressions? Would you recommend it?

When playing the game I did feel like being cheated a bit by AI as well. It was not awfully bad but you will feel it. I accepted it as developer wanting to make the game more challenging and I also blame the die. Still great game, love it.

Not bad. Been so long since we got a new game, I'll take it.
Man what a buggy mess that app is. Games constantly bug out, the app is slow and freezes. Really disappointing.

Weird, so far I found the app totally slick and really well done.
Works like a charm.
Not considering the iaps I'm actually enjoying the game a lot.
There's a Kickstarter for a iPad and PC version of Reiner Knizias The Confrontation ending soon: https://www.kickstarter.com/project...r-knizias-the-confrontation-for-pc-mac-and-ip
Sounds like this used to be a Lord of the Rings board game that they stripped the licensing out of. Anyone play it?

Repost from the main thread, Kindo out worldwide.
Kindo is out worldwide.
It's a very cool positional strategic game, mostly made for async (there is single player AI with 3 levels of difficulty).
Super sleek app, very well done, mind bending games.
It is advertised as chess for the new millennium, and it's not far from that, I really enjoy the game.

Lords Of Xidit is on BGA.
Open beta for Reiner Knizia's The Confrontation here: http://gamejolt.com/games/reiner-knizia-s-the-confrontation/77178
Game is a lot of fun. Like Summoner Wars but with bluffing instead of dice rolls.

The LOTR branded game is a great two player game. Looks like they just stripped the branding away.

The challenges make it worth it, they really make the single player shine.

Ascension expansions on iOS are almost as confusing as the expansions for the physical game, what expansions are best to buy?
i don't think there's a "best", each expansion basically brings about a new-ish gameplay
but if you want to buy the dawn of champions, you should also get realms unraveled, i think i've heard someone saying the last 2 expansions always work together
been playing deckdefantasy lately, really fun deckbuilding/roguelike/rpg game, mostly in japanese though

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned this: Tabletopia
I actually haven't used Tabletop Simulator, but it seems similar to that, except this has official backing from several publishers and it has a subscription-based model, but there's a free membership.

I'm watching it on kickstarter but frankly I'm not that impressed with the pricing of their subscription model.

Resurrecting.
For whatever reason put Carc on my iPad this afternoon. See they put out an expansion pass in April, so, bought that.
Seems like the community might be dead though? If anyone is still playing, feel free to add me. Bigwinnerx. Played years ago.

Is it possible to get into the TS beta if you weren't part of the Kickstarter? I can't remember the details.
I'm not really seeing any info about that on the Kickstarter either way.

PC client isn't terrible. Still terribly expensive, though, and still with the "gokoins." So if I want to buy Prosperity (and who wouldn't?) I'll have to pay 15 bucks for 160 gokoins (now called "ducats"), then buy the expansion for 150, leaving 10 remaining coins that will sit there forever. Not the most outrageous thing that's ever happened, but it's annoying.
They do have an auto-match function now that seems to be working well, so I'll give them credit for that. On the web game it was such a pain in the ass to get into a game I usually just gave up. Or I'd get into one and immediately get kicked for whatever reason.
Aside from the cost, this is progress. Actually kind of looking forward to checking out the iPad client.
Camel Up is out too: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/camel-up/id919119741?mt=8&ign-mpt=uo=4
No idea how it plays but looks good -- might grab it later today after I check BGG to make sure it's not a total pile.
