Sweet! This must be exciting for you, at least for me it is 🙂
oh yes Jerusalem is ancient sorry
a fine list i guess sword of orthodoxy is close enough to ancients to have all eras covered
good luck
Thanks!
well done sir! I like seeing 1776
Thanks!
Expertise? Who? Me? HAHAHAHA!!!!
I think Battle for Germany would be a good live candidate, since you know and like it. Or the States of Siege title. Would be interested in watching a Death in the Trenches playthrough, even if less solid on the rules Go ahead - do the “which game to livestream” poll 🙂
Hello
Greetings!
What have you done to me? I was not going to participate but I guess I have to throw a list together... Ok. my twelve will be previously unplayed games. Video soon...
@@charleslatora5750, I really love hearing about the different ways people select their List! Played favorites, unplayed shelf of shame, by historical period, by publisher ... so many ways to skin this cat!
Soviet Dawn?
Yep!
Axis empires baby
Here we go!
Now I know where some of these orphan counters that i have had for ages, come from! Love the artwork on that box.
would love a teach and play of this game, mike 😁
Better yet, don’t clip Those counters look fine ! Thanks
After the great Imperium Clipping Disaster, I didn't clip any counters for over 35 years! Once I got back into the hobby in 2017, I discovered the Oregon Laminations Deluxe Corner Rounder. I don't always clips games now, but I definitely do when there is a high counter density ... those nibs catch and tall stacks go tumbling!
No. I sold some, more like I gave away cheap when I was out of work and I needed some money.😱😭 I did give away my original kingmaker to a neighbor boy and well that probably went to the trash sometime after that. House rule. No clipping unless the corners are long enough to braid.
Looks good. Hope u find the game(s) you're looking for. I only have one room, and I have issues finding stuff all the time. Eye glasses, minis, games (cause I'm always reorganizing) n clothes. Be safe
Mike, will ou be picking two subs for your Challenge list or sticking to ten?
I will have 2 alternates. I have decided on one of them, and I'm letting Charles pick the other one, if he wants to.
My vote is for a Sword of Ortodoxy🙂 Need to catch up on War Room, holidays are usually busy for me...
thank you
You need three more games. New rule Pick ten. +2 possible substitutes
Yes! Two extra slots for the List! And you get the opportunity to select one! I sent you a Facebook Message with the details. Thanks!
Get on that last game 😎👍🏼
great stuff and thanks for sharing the information... look forward to it and seeing if you can complete your list again...
Looking froward to those boardgame preview videos!
What I am saying? Patton's First Victory, would be nice to see some videos on it.
I am with Brian R. Smith!
Soviet Dawn is my vote
Battle for Germany FTW
add Imperium Romanum Please
Imperium Romanum was tons of fun ... I played it a fair bit back in college. (Loved playing as the Parthians). It might not make it to the channel in 2025, but would be a strong contender for 2026.
I am looking forward to 1776. One of the first things I did when I moved to Baltimore was to go to the Avalon Hill HQ on Old Harford Rd. Well, it wasn't their HQ anymore, just the warehouse. But while I was there, they let me buy a couple of games & 1776 was one. It was fun, but playing solo was not playing the game at its best. And I did find the actual HQ on Read St.
Axis Empires Ultimate Edition is a 'Holy Grail' game for me. But it's out of stock in Canadian retailers and the USD-CAD exchange at present is prohibitive. I look forward to any vids you may do with this game so that I can experience it vicariously through your playing. Ottoman Sunset looks interesting.
Like the counters from Three Crown Games, the Blue Panther counters do not need rounding in my opinion. Personally I like the thickness and LOVE the canvas maps! I have so far enjoyed this line of games from Mr. Kling and company.
Those canvas maps are awesome! And yes, the Blue Panther counters do punch out very cleanly.
SPI Battle for Germany is a great game
Good Morning sir!!!!
I'm not sure I'm going to give up a list for 10 games. I'm so stressed about the three that I couldn't finish and The one never started. The games were broken. Though one I did get four or five turns into it.
And also this list of 10 games interferes with trying to get miniatures done and miniatures played with. I've even unsubscribed to ID gesture because all my comments on his channel completely disappear off the screen. I don't know, something I did or somebody opted to delete me or some stupid bot back then. Been years. Ever since the dvg back of the cards not matching event. can't comment, It's not fun to watch
@@charleslatora5750, being able to complete 4 or 5 turns for broken games should be good enough to get credit for the game for The War Room purposes. Jester has said a couple times that making a good effort is what really counts.
Sorry. Late to watch this. Happy New Year!
9 am and only 50°F !!!!!
Trying to get caught up on everyone's videos.
No problemo mi amigo!
Only able to catch this Wed morning. Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy 2025.
Thanks for viewing, Brian! I hope 2025 is a good year for you too!
Cool enemy pack! Are you gonna get some of the new stuff that has been released for your unboxings?
I don't do Shadows of Brimstone Kickstarters, but I look at the Expansions and Enemy Packs as they come out at Retail, and end up buying most of them.
Hope it goes better for you, than those Temple Dogs!
Those were a pain! But I do like how they turned out.🙂
happy nY missed the live
Happy New Year! Always great to hear from you at any time!
I missed the livestream in any case, Happy New Year, Meandering Mike.
Happy New Year to you too William! You are a value d viewer and commenter!
Love that you cover related books!
Thanks! I don't always add a reading list, but it does seem to be popular when I do.
Awesome content! You explain everything so clearly. Keep it up!
Thanks!
@@MeanderingMikesManCave Your video editing part is amazing! who did edit your video?
@@AlAmin-d4e, the animation at the beginning was by Dan Pancaldi of the channel No Enemies Here (I just added the message text and the fireworks animation which are stock from the editing software.) My skill is limited making thumbnail images, or occasionally picture montages.
@@MeanderingMikesManCave I appreciate it! I love your editing. By the way, I noticed you did not use proper descriptions and tags in your videos, But why?
@@AlAmin-d4e, not sure what you mean by "proper" descriptions. As for tags, that is something I've wanted to figure out how best to do, but have not got around to it.
Happy New Year boss. sooo close to 1000. 2025 is the year!
Thanks!
the music is iconic
97 to go!!!!!!
Surveys done. At this moment I'm not going to submit 10 games for the ID jester list because I just seem to have gotten so stressed while trying to complete the list. Only 6/10 properly done with 3, in my eyes, as failures to finish, and one not even tried.
If it causes stress, then probably best not to do it. You do a good job of keeping us up-to-date on your gaming plans on your channel, and play a nice variety of games, so you don't really need a list to try to keep you playing.
