Super grateful to have been included in
#boardgameintentions ! I've recently been trying to be a bit more in tune with the community instead of just making a post once in a while and liking your posts as I see them. Hopefully, this is one step forward in the right direction!
So what is
#boardgameintentions ? Well, let me explain.
@oohboardgames , the creator of the tag, has set out to ask the masses a question, what is your intention this month in the boardgaming hobby? At the beginning of every month, the partakers of the tag will put out their monthly intention, while commenting on how they did during their previous one. It's about having fun while getting things done!
My personal intention for April...is to finally get this beast of a game on the table. Ever since I received the kickstarter, I've kept it locked away in my archives in the hopes that it will somehow get itself setup, teach me the rules, and play with me so I can experience the magic of Cole Wehrle and
@wehrlegig_games . Reality is not so simple.
However, I had the chance to meet a community of boardgamers that have been super into many different genres and complexities of gaming. It's been such a blessing to be able to join them and finally play the games i've been collecting. During one of our conversations, someone had shared their thoughts on playing Pax Pamir Second Edition, and added that they wanted to play the newest version of John Company. This was the moment I'd been waiting for. I immediately informed them that their luck was about to change.
So, all I have to do now is learn the rules, go through the game, and set a date this month to play. Again easier, said than done. Though, this month on April 12th,
@woodforsheep is hosting a 24 Hour gaming event as apart of
#ExtraLife 's celebration of Tabletop Gaming. I thought it would be the best time to get it played since we'll have plenty of time to get into it. The event is also raising money for Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto through raffles, so that's cool too!
So now that there's a tentative date, will I be able to get the game played? Wish me luck!
