A tense and tricky online game of #PaxPamir 2nd edition, which - against the odds - I won. At almost 75% of the way through I was still on zero points and last in the dominant Russian coalition. But I managed to slow the other Russian-aligned players enough for the lone British-aligned player to eliminate the Russian dominance. Then I kept ahead on units in play, to gain most points in the final two scoring rounds. By way of reward, the British-aligned player came second.
Das 9. Mainzer Brett ist rum und war wieder sehr fein. 😊 Danke an alle, die miteinander und mit uns gespielt haben. Es war sehr abwechslungsreich und entspannt. 🙏🤗 Bis demnächst!
Ein Brett planen wir dieses Jahr noch. 🀄♟️🎲

Here's an #introduction to this account
I'm @nauss and this is the account where, I guess, I'll talk about - and maybe post pictures related to - my board game habits
Some games to which I more or less know the rules at this point, in no particular order: #TwilightStruggle, the shorter #TSRedSea, #ImperialStruggle, the excellent #BayonetsAndTomahawks produced by talented locals, #HereIStand, #VirginQueen, #PaxRenaissance, #PaxPamir, #Arcs, maybe #JohnCompany but I'm not certain, and at least the Breaking the Bismarck Barrier scenario of #EmpireOfTheSun (finally, a game with real hexes). I have played several COIN games but the one I like the most is #AndeanAbyss. I love #DominantSpecies. I'm starting to love #Nevsky
Definitely not a tabletop board game but I'm also a big fan of #CivilizationVI, e.g. #Civ6. More hexes!
Interested in playing more games with locals, connecting with other people in town, or playing with other places' locals when I'm out of town. Looking at you, Ontario
I don't use Facebook, Discord, or almost any spyware social media if I can help it - and I only use BoardgameGeek begrudgingly. Happy to be on wargamers.social now, I've been thinking about spinning up a more game-focused account for awhile but it's always been on the backburner 😀
I'm coming to the conclusion that I am really terrible at Pax Pamir.
Got to play Pax Pamir 2nd ed for the first time ever last night!
Such a tight and anxiety-inducing game! We messed up with the rules a couple of times, there is a lot to remember for sure.
We played with 3 players. It might be even better with 4 but I don't think I could stomach the game length with 5...
