Rhumsaa Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Anyone enjoy playing boardgames on here? Either classic games or the variety that have emerged thanks to Catan etc and Wil Wheaton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sick Moon Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I've invented a new board game. It's a bit like Dungeons and Dragons. It's called Beards and Blowlamps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-in-man Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Quite often get the scrabble out, have a game of chess/draughts or dominoes. get mousetrap out when the kids come over - well, they are in their 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a nice little group, started out with Risk, and we've done Catan, Go, the odd game of Poker, Carcasonne etc. Catans a recurring fave though, great game.

Tarne Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I've played Catan and Ticket to Ride online, courtesy of Mr Wheaton of course. Would love to get into the rest, just don't have a group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbx Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 We play "Frozen"-branded monopoly at home. My 4 year-old daughter is quite good at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhumsaa Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 There is a page on Facebook called Board with the Isle of Man or something like that. Some fella called Steve out Peel set it up and organised a get together in March, it seems a bit disorganised but a few of us went along and they seemed nice folk. If you're missing a group of gamers that might be a good spot to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moghrey Mie Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Anybody fancy setting up something like this? http://www.thirstymeeples.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhumsaa Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Can't imagine there would be the demand for it There might be some interest in a regular weekly/monthly gathering to play games, I know the guys in that facebook page tried it but rather selfishly I have a solid little group of 4-6 people who all get on and enjoy playing games. Going to a pub and playing with other people I don't know doesn't instantly appeal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbx Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 ........Going to a pub and playing with other people I don't know doesn't instantly appeal to me. Hehe, I remember when you were part of "the Ramsey Krew" at Mannarena nights. By the time you had finished installing a game we would of moved on to a new one......Happy days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M3tabolic Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I run a small private board game group at the moment, based in Douglas, with reasonably regular meetings (about once every 2 weeks). There are about 20 of us, but it's very casual... people turn up if they fancy it... so we tend to have between 4 and 8 people each time. Games we play include the following: Descent 2nd Edition Cosmic Encounter Tajemnicze Domostwo (Mysterium) Ticket to Ride Europe Formula D Takenoko Sheriff of Nottingham Terror in Meeple City (aka. Rampage) Star Realms The Resistance Spyfall Jamaica Survive, Escape from Atlantis Black Fleet War on Terror I'm always interested in chatting to people who are really into board gaming, or perhaps really want to but don't have a group nearby. If anyone is interested in giving it a go, do get in touch. I'm also in the process of starting up a larger gaming group meeting at a local Church hall (it's early days at the moment, but some funding has been secured for purchase of games).
