For International Tabletop Day, which I didn't know was a thing, Amazon is having a sale on a bunch of board games, including Zombicide.

Bah humbug, seems that only .com gets it, so much for the 'international' part

There's a few good games in there- Forbidden Island is great fun with kids. Munchkin is a classic tabletop game. Dominion is a fun deckbuilder.

Ticket to Ride is good.

Dixit is brilliant.

Diplomacy is of course a classic, though personally I dislike it.

The Dominion Bundle looks excellent value if you like deck building games.

Zombicide for 51 bucks (Normal 90ish?) is pretty enticing....

Diplomacy: Ruining Friendships Since 1959

7 Wonders is AWESOME! It's like Civilisation: Euro-style with deck builder elements. Fairly simple rules that offer a lot of open choices for what to do in a way that makes it all about your own decisions and strategy, not about luck or semantics in how rules are worded. A friend bought it a year or so ago and we play it nearly every time he's in town. Worth the retail price, but for $28 I'll now have a copy of my own. Fast game with excellent art and components, big thick cards, thick cardboard tiles.

Forbidden Island is also a good, simple and cheap game. It's a co-op game where you adventure around an island trying to uncover treasure and escape before the island sinks, also a bit of a euro-style game with relatively simple mechanics and tough choices. It's also HARD (like many co-op games) but has different starting points that adjust the difficulty. For $10 I recommend not passing on it, great filler game or as something fun and relatively simple to play with non-gamers.

Yeah. Disappointed that .ca isn't included. Oh well, I can support my LGS at 20% off instead.

Anyone recommend Relic? I have seen it for sale at a vendor's booth here at Adepticon. Wonder if it is worth taking the plunge one.

Relic is awesome, Filbert, if you enjoy the mechanics of Talisman. The exploding 6's give you a chance to always beat any monster, and with different stat-based decks of enemies, you can largely fight to your benefit. It definitely fixes the issues that Talisman has. And the expansion is coming out soon. Again, if you like the core concept of Talisman, buy it.

It's pretty boring and the basic version has virtually no player interaction. I can't recommend it.

10 hours straight of board games.

Won a board game and a Wil Wheton promo card for 7 wonders.
