- My challenge to play every board game I own in 2024 is well underway but a certain handful of games are proving to be a much more difficult hurdle than I expected! These are the board games I own that are MOST difficult to get to the table! Send me your energy (and your advice)!

I'm trying to get This War of Mine to the table this month. The subject matter is heavy but important
Hey, as I mentioned in another comment the rule book really holds your hand. So, there is no need to feel daunted. You dont even need to read the rules before you play.
Yes, I completely agree. Very sensitive topic.
Just trying to survive - like so many people.
Player count is tough for me, too. I should attempt that challenge, too. But this year we are playing a bunch of our unplayed campaign games. Pretty proud of that. But there are still many campaign games left including Frosthaven and Oathsworn. War of the Ring is soo good. Can totally recommend it.
If only we could live with friends all the time and not work!! Haha Life really gets in the way of board game tome
The curse of 3P minimum. Hanza just can’t get played because the couple we play with regularly aren’t ready for that type of euro and our bigger group I can never convince to play over the new hotness or our quick favorites. I think you just need to entice Kenny by agreeing to play one of his favorites. This war of mine is one I’m interested in but not sure I’ll ever pick it up
It’s certainly a shame for some games! Fortunately 3 is a great player count for plenty of other games. Ya win some ya lose some!
Corleone's Empire is an easy play and teach. definitely less than 2 hours. my play group plays that one on the regular. fast turns, amazing game
Love to hear this! I don’t ever hear much about this game, and it’s easily the oldest on my shelf of shame
Wow, I've never seen Crescent Moon before, but that box is stunning!
It really is! Visually drew me in on top of LOTB’s help
The components look really nice on the table too.
But, I've heard it's a "fragile Root", in that it's very asymmetric that requires that each player try to play their role well (counteracting other player's moves), otherwise a player can run away with the game. And that it really requires 4p or 5p, so that there's enough stuff happening to drive the larger "game cycle". I need to get it to the table for sure.
Oh man. Hey, this was of mine is so good, trust me when I say it’s really not daunting at all. The setup is not bad, the Rulebook is the best I’ve ever seen- just do what it says while it’s saying it, then it stops and go back to the beginning. It’s setup to just walk you through as you play, no memorizing needed, but it’s hard as heck to win. My 3 times and I’ve still never won.
Love it! I’m excited to dive in. I’ve heard by many that it’s the best solo game.
Cresent moon is one i recently acquired and been meaning to learn. Godfather is a fairly easy teach/fun play. If y'all need a 4th, let me know and i can teach ya!
Now you have to update us on the Impossible to Table List every month as you update us on the Play Your Entire Collection Challenge vids.
Good luck and have fun!
Ha! That might be a good idea! Thanks so much!
War of the Ring! I prepped for that game and still haven't played it. I have different color cubes and discs that replaced the red and blue minis. Off the top of my head theres like a red, orange, and yellow set of discs/cubes replacing the red minis and I think 2 shades of blue, 2 shades of green, and a brown set of discs/cubes for the other side. At a glance, I couldn't imagine being able to tell the red and blue minis apart. The grey minis have thier flags painted to match the color of the cubes/discs and I never paint anything! I spent a lot of time planning on playing lol but I still need to get it go the table.
I am with you there!! We will see when I actually see it played
Don't replace the minis they are great. It's really quite easy to tell them apart
The Godfather should be easy to knock off your list. It's pretty simple, but quite fun. Don't think about it, just do it. 2 or 3 hours, and you've learned it and played it.
Love comments like this (no sarcasm). Thank you! When I think in terms of “this is just this window of time and you’ve got it” it helps!
1:39 ...And as they say: "Just ok isn't ok"... 😉
3:43 Mage Knight?!!!!!!!!
This War Of Mine is fantastic, and actually very easy to learn and play because the rule book is quite unique. It takes you through every turn in a very accessible way. Just takes hours to play. Watching your group make critical decisions and seeing the outcomes would be great. No spoilers!
Excellent! Looking forward to finally tabling it with the crew :)
The struggle is real!
Always! Also hi friends! 👋❤️
My 3P game curse is Three Kingdoms Redux... I am a huge fan of Romance of the 3Kingdoms and it sucks I can't get to enjoy the BG version as much.
Crescent moon is awesome but you're right, it's an absolute bear to learn. Also it's really only good at 5 players, any less and you're missing a key role for the "ecosystem" so to speak.
Also Godfather is so good but also super easy. You'll have no problem learning it.
Next to games that are impossible to put down!
My wife and I made the same resolution. It's hard! Sometimes you get fixated on one of them.
Arkham Horror has consumed us for weeks. Slows down the progress!
I had the same thing happen to me with Dorfromantik and also the incredibly difficult Halls of Hegra, but what a nice problem to have though right? 😂
War of the ring is difficult to learn because of the rulebook. I think Shea from RTFM has a good video on it. Use the video and then go to the rulebook.
Once you start playing it all makes sense and the flow is not that difficult. If you played Dune you should be able to handle War of the Ring ok.
Thank you! I’ve may check that video. I’m hoping to get a buddy to come and play with me that already knows it, but knowing it myself would also be good I’m aurw
Unfortunately you cannot play Crescent Moon with fewer than 4, and it's really considered to need the full 5 to work properly.
Oof, looks like that takes number one for hardest then! Haha I need to call up some friends
How many games do you own? Just curious of how actually hard is to play your entire collection.
I started around 275, but have added about 20 games this year! My videos recounting the games played actually have a counter in the top left that goes up and down as I add games to my collection and play them, and currently I’m at around 180 left! 😂 Gotta get playing!
Video liked!👍
I live in the Louisville area and would be happy to help you with This War of Mine or War of the Ring any time!
This is certainly a possibility! I’ll see what we can do :)
Sounds great! War of the Ring is a beast but once you get going it falls into place. Just expect to be overwhelmed early on. And This War of Mine is the most unique and moving experience I’ve had in the gaming space.
I thought the board game was before this war of mine video game😂
Hey, it very well may be, but I heard of the video game back in my college days so I just assumed the video game was first 😂
Dont be put off by 'This War of Mine' the rule book guides you through the gameplay. You can literally read as you play, you dont need to memorise anything. It is a great game, takes quite a while to play unless you die early. Which you might on the first play... hahaha.
Hey, I’ll do my best, but if I die first play, then that’s a quick play out of the way! 😂
@@Tablenauts Haha! You'll have fun either way :)
This War of Mine is really not that hard to get into. It's pretty much just start playing and learn as you go along. Very dark story, but a really good game
Thank you!! If the learning of the game is taught as you go, that’s great. Super good advice
4:30 I'd say maybe emotionally. Especially now, due to the political situations in Ukraine and Israel - so I would think it would have some undertones with regard to those situations 🤔
Whens the next game night? I'll be there!
Any specific one on this list you feel like playing?? We can arrange something!
You say from London. Being too good for us common folk
Could just lift the box lid rather than the entire box. 😊
See, ideas like this are why I read comments 😂
Let me guess: Twilight Imperium is going to be on this list! 😉
