Has anybody mentioned Saga yet

I clicked on this thread to mention Saga.

Truth be told, I did the exact same. But it's already in the first post, and then in each other post in this thread.

Alternatively, I'd recommend Brubaker's Criminal series or The Immortal Iron Fist run Brubaker did with Aja.

Archipelago - 5player game where you all explore and settle a set of islands coop-petetively, Everyone at the beginning of the game gets a different secret victory condition and condition for the game to end. When one of those endings is reached, all conditions are tallied up and the person who has the most points wins the most, seeing as surviving is already winning. That's where the cooperative part comes into play. The natives don't much care if it's the green player or the yellow player exploiting their lands. You'll have to work together to strike a balance and not upset them too much, because should they revolt, all players lose.

Die Macher - As far as I'm concerned boardgaming peaked in 1986 with this in depth game about the German national election. Takes easily 5 hours to play and there's a lot going on with different systems, party alliances, joint victories, secret opinion polls and shifting interest in political issues both locally and nationally. There's a reason it has the #1 game id on bgg.

Netrunner - It's a 2player card game with a ton of expansions, but the hook is its asymmetric design - meaning both sides play entirely differently - but also how well the theme matches the design. One player plays one of basically four future corps, setting up servers and protecting those with different hurdles and gates and things while the other player is a futuristic cyber hacker, a Netrunner. Their task is to get all the way to the bottom of those servers and stealing valuable agendas from the corp before the corp can score them.

I don't care what happens with LU. Grave Consequences is the best LU!

Aztec Warfare, All Night Long, and the trio's finals would like a word with you.

All of those are fantastic matches, true. But none of them are Grave Consequences.

That being said, Dominion was a great show, might even have been my favourite NJPW show of the year.

Corpo-Mente - Corpo-Mente

Of course Corpo Mente is for you, if Igorrr is your jam. But as it is not as electronically distorted as typical Igorrr fare, it might also be more palatable or more easily recognizable as music. That does not however take away from an overall haunted and eery quality to the album, which I quite enjoy. Pop on over to their bandcamp and give em a whirl.

So apparently Rey de Reyes 2015 has been postponed again. Fingers crossed for March 18th.

Red Rock West 3/5 Decent neo-noirish midwestern crime film starring Nic Cage and Dennis Hopper.

The Man from Nowhere 3/5 Pretty good Korean thriller. Cartoonish villains, pretty violent, pretty fun.

Redline 3/5 Not as great as I had hoped, still good though. It looks incredible, just a tad long for what it is.

No Tears for the Dead 2/5 Korean thriller by the same guy who made The Man from Nowhere. Nowhere near as good.

The Wraith 2/5 Oh man what a garbage film. It's incredible, the soundtrack is amazing. Not a good film in any way but fantastic in every way.
