With the Game Auction quickly approaching, many of you are getting some games together to sell. One of the things we ask you to do before you bring them in is inventory your games to make sure they're complete.
Modern board games have a lot of bits, so it’s easy for game pieces to go astray, no matter how careful and conscientious you are. Here are a few tips to make inventorying them go easier and quicker:
1. Grab some Post Its and ziplock bags, if you have them, so you can make notes and organize as you go.
2. Find the contents list. It's usually on the back of the game box and/or at the beginning of the rulebook. Older games may provide it inside the lid. If you can't find one, check Board Game Geek under the game's Community Wiki section and/or General Forums.
3. Inventory everything:
• Check that all the boards are there and look them over for scuffing, fading, dings, tears, etc.
• Count the cards.
• Count the bits: every token, chit, coin, pawn, meeple, resource cube, etc. - and don’t forget the dice.
4. Make note of anything that is missing or damaged.
5. Also make note of any extras: promo cards, card sleeves, special inserts, expansions stored in the base game... These all add value to the game and should be noted, too, so we can tell bidders about them. Gamers love extras.
We want everyone to be happy with the games they acquire. So please do your part to help, by checking to make sure your games are complete.
New items this week at HBB&G: Circadians First Light, Coloma, Concordia Balearica & Italia expansion, Concordia Balearica & Cyprus expansion, Crystal Palace, Marvel Fluxx, Point Salad, Quacks of Quedlinburg Herb Witches expansion, Terraforming Mars Turmoil expansion, U-Boot.
Castles of Burgundy - Alea 20th Anniversary Edition
Castles of Burgundy is my favorite medium-weight Euro strategy game. So, of course when I heard an Anniversary Edition was being printed, I had to learn more about it and share it with you. I’ll begin with a little information about the game in case you’re not familiar with it, then get into some of the specifics about the differences between the original and the new Alea 20th Anniversary Edition (AE). Hopefully, this will help you decide whether the new edition is a must-have for you if you already own the original or it will help you choose between the two if you don’t already own a copy of Castles of Burgundy.
In Castles of Burgundy, you and your fellow players are developing your own 15th century estate – or duchy (AE). You’ll build ships, cities and castles; raise livestock; mine for silver; and seek scientific knowledge at monasteries. The two dice you roll at the beginning of each turn may set your action options, but you ultimately determine how you’ll use them.
Game Play
Each turn of Castles of Burgundy begins with all players rolling their two colored dice. The numbers you roll determine which areas of the board you can purchase from, which goods you can sell and where you can place tiles on your player board. Workers allow you to modify your die rolls, mitigating the luck factor significantly. So the dice don’t dictate your every move, you do.
I've written a full review of Castles of Burgundy, that includes details on what's included in the Alea 20th Anniversary Edition. You can read it in this month's newsletter.
I'll be teaching it this Saturday, too. I'm not sure at this time whether we'll be playing with the Anniversary Edition or the original.
While 2-player games of Castles only take about 30 minutes, 3 or 4 players takes quite a bit longer, especially when you're learning it for the first time. There are a lot of possible actions you can take, which is one of the things I love about the game!
So, if you want to learn how to play it, or already know how and just want in on the game, RSVP now for either the 1pm slot or the later slot. To RSVP, you can comment here, respond to the Event post here or on Meetup, call us, text us, Facebook Message us, whatever works for you.

I love Castles of Burgundy. I don't know what your later slot is, but I will be over between 3 and 4
I own the base game and enjoy when I get to play it, seeing any expansions will be nice.
This is probably the best recommendation Amanda Marie Young and I have received from Here Be Books. We play it quite a bit, but it sure gets old losing to Amanda so consistently.
LOL! Glad to hear it was a good fit!
A Game of Thrones: The Board Game. War and chaos are engulfing the lands of Westeros. The great Houses are vying for control of the Iron Throne using the old tools of intrigue and war. Yet while the war for Westeros rages, grave dangers gather in the cold North, and an ancient enemy is gaining momentum in the distant East.
In A Game of Thrones: The Board Game, you can take control of one of the great Houses of Westeros. Playing for the House of Stark, Lannister, Baratheon, Tyrell or Greyjoy, you must utilize keen resource management, intuitive diplomacy, and creative cunning to win dominance over the land. Give orders to armies, control important characters, gather resources for the coming winter, and survive the onslaught of your enemies. A Game of Thrones: The Board Game features a unique phase mechanic, battle resolution, and special ordering system that make for an engaging game in which all players are actively involved at all times.
Best with 5 players, ages 14 and up, games of A Game of Thrones: The Board Game usually take 2 to 3 hours.
This game has been requested several times, so Tim's running it this Saturday. There's still time to reserve your spot at the table. Because of its long playtime, we’ll likely only run two sessions. The fist session will start at 1pm, the second after the first finishes, around 3 or 4 pm. RSVP ASAP and specify which session you want to play in. You can reply to this post, message us, call us or text us.
Tim will teach you how to play!
