Comments or Questions

Two questions around the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. First off, did you enjoy the special? But also, we’ve had two now that are tied into a holiday, Werewolf by Night at Halloween and Guardians of the Galaxy starting the holiday season. What other special presentation might you want to see tied to a holiday or in general?

And with our second topic, are there any characters you wouldn’t want to see in the MCU? Or at least characters you don’t want to see show up in the MCU right away? Mine definitely fall into that later category, I want to see them, but not right away.

You can let me know all of those things down in the comment section below. Or tweet them to me @TheScando or by using #10MinMarvel.

Marvel Champions Drax

Now, this is a bit of a standard first one and generally why I write these articles. Monthly Marvel Champions comes out with something new and in this case, they are continuing to build off of the Galaxy’s Most Wanted expansion to add in more of the Guardians of the Galaxy. We now are able to play as Rocket, Groot, Gamora, Star-Lord, and Drax. And Nebula is coming. More characters is always fun and always reminds me to pull the game out and play more.

Doodle Dungeon

The other game I picked up at my FLGS was Doodle Dungeon. This is a new game from Pegasus Spiele, and looks like a lot of fun. This game reminds me of Boss Monster and a Roll and Write smashed together. In Doodle Dungeon you are making a dungeon. But unlike Deadly Doodles where you an adventurer delving into the dungeon, here you want the dungeon to win. The hero must die, they shouldn’t kill your monsters and of course not steal your treasure.

Now, do I need another game like this when I already have Boss Monster? Oddly enough, I had pulled Boss Monster off the shelf to sell recently because, while I think the game is a lot of fun it is a bit clutchy. The rules aren’t as smooth as they should be, and the game takes a bit to get going. I am hoping that Doodle Dungeon will work better for me.

Kohaku

This is a game that I’ve been eyeing for a little bit, mainly since GloryHoundd played it.

But what is drawing me to the game? Firstly, I like the aesthetic of the game. The tiles look amazing and different than a lot of other games. It also seems like a simple game. You draft tiles and do set collection around points, basically, and that’s it. I think this is a game that my wife will like but also one that I could take to play with my parents, or a heavier gaming group as something different. I like games to seem to offer a variety for a lot of people.

Fireball Island

Finally, we have Fireball Island: The Curse of Vul-Kar. This is a kids game, basically. Or more so now a family game. There was an original Fireball Island from the 80’s that was fine from what I’ve heard. It just had an awesome marble chute and cool 3D board. This version keeps all of that but adds in more game to it. It isn’t a roll or spin and move anymore, instead you are play cards to move.

This is one that I got to see and kind of demo at GenCon in 2019 and while I don’t know it’s a game that I will play all the time, it is fun. The game play is very simple and should work to play with the toddler in a few years, but can be played with friends now. I haven’t bought it until now because it’s a $75 game.

However, at Target, I happened to spot it on the shelf with no price. So I took it to one of the scanners and it was listed at $30. SO I definitely had to buy this game I’ve been looking at. My guess to what happened, and I’ve seen this happen before with Magic: The Gathering cards is something got entered into the system wrong. Fireball Island should be retailing at $75, like I said, but the expansions, $30. So someone, somewhere, priced it as if it were an expansion when it was the base game. This will likely get fixed soon, but if you really want to try and get it cheap, right now might work.

Which Do You Want To Play?

For me, I think the one that I want to play most is Kohaku. That one is just pretty and it’s been on my radar, like I said, for a little bit. Though Doodle Dungeon does look really cool and I already know I love Marvel Champions. I should just play some more games coming up here soon. Marvel Champions for sure because I can play it solo.

Pitchcar Extensions 1, 6 & 7

I was able to play Pitchcar for the first time on Tuesday, but even before that, I knew I wanted to get more for it. In particular, I want The Loop. Extension 7, which I believe was on Kickstarter, is just a loop you can add to the track. This wooden track, so not sure how they make it, but it’s a new obstacle. Can you flick a disc with enough force to go up and around a loop? Or at least flick it hard enough so it will drop onto the next section of track? Then the other extensions add more pieces to create an even bigger track.

I’m not sure if it is still going on but Eagle-Gryphon had Pitchcar on sale.

Marvel Champions: Star-Lord and Gamora

The last Marvel Champions expansion was The Galaxy’s Most Wanted. That was a campaign one that came with Rocket and Groot. So we knew when that was announced we would get more Guardians of the Galaxy characters. And yes, we did, so now you can take two characters this month and try and tackle the Galaxy’s Most Wanted campaign, or go four players and have a full team. I need to get them and a lot of other characters played, which I say every time. I should just set it up and play some evening soon.

Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything

Now, what is this? This isn’t a board game, instead it is a book for Dungeons and Dragons. I planned on getting this way sooner, but I was holding out hope to get the special cover. Unfortunately that was not in the cards. So, I broke down and I bought the regular one. This comes with all sorts of things, new spells, , some DM tools, but mainly I got it for the new character options. They add in a lot of new subclasses that the players can delve into. This just gives the players even more toys and more crazy things they can do.

Aeon’s End Expansions

You know the drill, I now have everything for Aeon’s End. Well, when I say everything, I mean, all the big boxes and all the small box expansions. I don’t need all the promo cards, that would just be silly to track down. But the last two expansion, small box, were consistently sold out, but then I looked on Miniature Market and they had both. So I grabbed them with another game, which I’ll talk about next. More Aeon’s End isn’t a bad thing, and it is a game I need to play more of as well.

A Gentle Rain

Now, I don’t know if this is an activity or a game? A Gentle Rain has you flipping tiles and matching symbols on the sides of the tiles. Your goal is to place the tiles to get completed blocks of four tiles. When you do, you place a token. The goal of the game is to see how many tokens you can place. A Gentle Rain is a true solo gaming experience, but since it is so simple, you could play it cooperatively. I just like the sound of this game as another, like Onirim, really fast solo game.

Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft

Another Dungeons and Dragons book has made it into my orders. This one I do get the fancy art cover for, because I pre-ordered it. I will say, with the fancy art covers for these books, order them ahead of time through your FLGS if you can, there is no guarantee how many Wizards of the Coast will make. This book will have some for the players, but it’ll mainly be for a Dungeon Master who wants to run a game in Ravenloft. Do I want to run one there, sure, but like the Eberron book, I want it for the information to add to my campaign.

Deep Madness: The Oracle’s Betrayal

This might be about the end to what I get for Deep Madness, another game I need to get to the table. But I will own most of it and I can find the rest on eBay later if need be. The Oracle’s Betrayal just basically adds three more scenarios that you can play through. The theme of the game is cool, because while it is Lovecraftian in terms of the monsters, I don’t feel like monsters on a deep sea base is something that is done enough. Every time I think of the game I really want to watch The Abyss and The Sphere.

Danger Park

Now, this one is a bit sad. Story Machine Games, the publisher of Danger Park had to fold because of the Covid-19 pandemic. So they put all their stock on sale, including Danger Park. I picked up that game because it looks fun and I want a theme park game. Who doesn’t want to build a theme park that might be a little bit dangerous? Sure, there are risks but if something happens, maybe that’ll help you win the game. Who knows, this is a humorous game about building a theme park that unfortunately now will be harder to get. I checked their website, all their stock is sold out at this point.

So, finally, which one is the most interesting to you? Is there a game that you can to try out of this bunch, or maybe you want to get one of the Dungeons and Dragons books?

So, I’m going to do what I did with Frosthaven when that was announced and talked about on videos, I’m doing a video breakdown. This Fantasy Flight In-Flight report is normally a big deal, kind of a kick-off for Gencon to find out what Fantasy Flight has coming up. This time they had to do it digitally and while that didn’t work properly, we do have the video up on Youtube.

We start off with basically a video package of all the games that Fantasy Flight has and has had and is working on fairly actively.

Then we get an introduction to the video by Chris Gerber, the head of FFG Studio.

So, clearly there is a lot that’s been announced, including two new games, though the one was just teased with Descent at the very end, in a fun way. But I’m excited mainly for more Marvel Champions and Marvel X-Men: Mutant Insurrection as well, because I want to play Gambit.

What announcement has you the most excited? I’m really tempted now by some of the new Armada stuff announced, and all of this makes me want to get Arkham Horror LCG and regular Arkham Horror back to the table to catch-up to where they are now. And if you don’t have time to watch the video, at least look at the last few seconds to see how massive that Descent box is!
