Welcome Board Gamer!

Buying games is easy…

building a collection that you are proud of is a science…

having the right game, at the right moment, for the right people that brings joy to the whole table…

Now, that is an art!

Hi, I’m Ken. I’m passionate about board games and helping others find games that they love. I’ve been collecting and playing board games for 10 years and have learned a lot along the way. I believe that everyone deserves to play great games with the ones they love and have a collection wherein each title brings them joy.

So, I’m here to teach you the art of building a board game collection!

All Tracks Lead to 18xx

Train Tuesday I talked to one of my friends on the phone today and we had a really interesting conversation about the trajectory of strategy board gamers. The argument is that no matter where you start in the hobby, if you enjoy deep strategy and critical thinking, you will ultimately end up playing 18xx. SomeContinue reading “All Tracks Lead to 18xx”

On this episode of Dune Imperium, I learned that if you don’t get to the top of your track your wife will surely steal the top spot and steal all the combats with intrigue cards and then steal the win 🤣 I don’t get salty after most losses but this one really got under my skin. Hats off to her though she played a good game 😉 #duneimperium #dune #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram Oh man, I’ve been waiting for this game for a long time! The 22 family is my favorite style of 18xx and I love this flavor! Also look at that table presence 😍 #traingames #18xx #ccmf #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram We played a lot of Aeons End last weekend. We started off by finishing up our Legacy campaign, which ended as a complete flop for us, but was redeemed by a reawakening of excitement for the game through playing the base game. Finally got to play some dual gauge today and it is a bizarre “cube rails” game. I picked it up during Hollandays last year and of course haven’t gotten it to the table because Covid. But playing on TTS today was a good substitute. I’m thankful that Hollandspielle is allowing gamers to make modules for their games. Anyway, as far as the actual game goes, it’s hard to tell after one game. It is very different than a lot of train games on the style and my initial response is that I need to play again and again and again because it was just so much fun. If it’s still fun after a half dozen games then it just might end up being my favorite cube rails game. But, only time will tell. #traingames #dualgauge #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram I have no idea how many hours it took me to sticker all of the blocks, but I think the table presence is worth it! #commandsandcolors #gmtgames #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram The Lonestar Wanderers started their tour in a small bar in Oklahoma and made their way west, gaining a horde of fans as they went. In just a few short months they became one of the hottest bands in the country and ended their tour in their home state, selling out Cowboy stadium! At least, I figure that must be the story seeing as how I got my personal best score with this band! To celebrate the big day, we played Twilight Struggle easily one of the most iconic CDGs! #twilightstruggle #gmtgames #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram Yesterday was a big day for me personally. Two of the projects I’ve been working on for @gmtgames went live on P500 which for my non gaming friends means that they launch for preorder and once they have 500 preorders they are put in queue for print. The CDG Solo System is game accessory originally designed by Stuka Joe (YouTuber) and I partner with him to design a more streamlined edition for GMT to print! The second game, Prime Minister, is my first game with GMT where I led development. It’s awesome to see these projects come to life! #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram Red Dust Rebellion sure is coming along. Spent the afternoon playtesting this one and it’s going to be so cool! Definitely on the heavier side of COIN, but the narrative is really starting to shine! #reddustrebellion #gmtgames #coingame #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgames — #cardgame #gaming #epic #boardgamegeek #gamer #games #boardgamejp #analoggame #juegosdemesa #Brettspiele #ボードゲーム #brädspel #jeuxdesociété #j2s #game #geek #instagame #boardgamesofinstagram
