I’ve done this twice recently with the Freedon Nadd and Ahsoka, Defender of Corvus decks, so I thought I’d explain briefly. I make a lot of SWED decks. I get ideas and sometimes they come together really well and really elegantly. Sometimes they don’t. In making decks for LOTRED, it has been no different. Some …
This old blog post gets at what I was looking for in a space game, and explicitly why current space games like Xia and Firefly the Game fall short. I was looking for a mix of those 2 games along with Merchants & Marauders, the best pirate board game I’ve played so far. But, as I …
At Geekopia Games, we are humbled and flattered and overwhelmed with the success of Kickstarter for Fearsome Wilderness: a tabletop gaming experience crafted for gamers, hobbyists, and horror fans alike!

Hi everyone, it’s been a long journey but we’ve launched our first Kickstarter in Fearsome Wilderness, a tabletop gaming experience crafted for gamers, hobbyists, and horror fans alike. Back it now!

Sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t, but this one did in a tree-planting-and-chopping-to-power-up deck that is unique and hopefully interesting and fun. I haven’t tested it yet and am still taking …
Unmatched: Cobble & Fog is the latest to come from Restoration Games Unmatched series and if you are interested in this game, it’s a very exciting expansion. This is probably their best overall set so far, in my opinion, though I’ll have to play through a bunch of matches to solidify that opinion. We get …
Where we left off, I needed new figures for characters from the new films and TV series such as The Mandalorian, Tobias Beckett and Enfys Nest. As covered 2 posts ago, I took a shot with Skullforge and Shapeways, and got these figures in the mail, here next to Obi-Wan for scale. These are great …
One of the best things about Epic Duels the game was the figures that came with it. It’s a marvel that for just $20, you got 31 figures, let alone game boards and cards and a dice and a game. Only 17 of the 31 figs are painted but the other 14 are nameless minors …
