Hey gents —
I’m curious how many fellow FGM’ers are also into board games, card games, or dice games. I know most of us spend plenty of time on digital wargames, but I thought it might be fun to see what everyone’s playing away from the screen.
My wife and I have built up quite a collection over the years, but I’ll hold off mentioning ours for now — I’d rather hear what you all are enjoying first. One we do play quite a bit is Dominion, which has been a favorite at our table.
So what’s on your table these days?
Board games, card games, classics, newer titles — anything goes.
Always fun hearing what the FGM crowd is into outside the usual battlefield. 🎲

Non-Digital games ...
1. Once a month, 12 members of Historical Games Association of London (Canada) play a variety of miniature wargames.
2. Weekly family board-games with 'family'.
Carpe vitam.
On my table I'm playing 2nd Fleet solo to re-learn the rules after a 40-year break. Still a great fun game.
And playing this all-time classic on Vassal with some friends:
