Okay,
After the thread post about less games being played, I've a stupid idea
Post the games you've played in '25 here.
 
No need for details, let's just list them, and at various points, when I can be bothered, I'll count them up by player.

If I get really bored, I might do further data analysis, but that's unlikely.

Get the ball rolling
Wargames
Pulp Alley (a draw)

And round a friend of the Amazing Mrs Lemmey's house today boardgames
Herd Instinct (2nd)
Qwirkle (win)
Marvel Unlimited (being GM)
2 x Courtisans (lost both)

I have no idea if I will keep up to date on this, but first off:

Boardgames with friends staying over New Year
Trans America (played twice, won 1)
Noggin (played 3, won 1)

Liberdy - 28mm Wild West game - pics https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Lk6gcndVqTmB2nIUFOa8MUA31eIF4F_d?usp=sharing

I have no idea if I will keep up to date on this, but first off:

For King & Parliament 10mm test of an Irish scenario
For King & Parliament 10mm test of an Irish scenario

It's an interesting historic battle to turn into a playable scenario. We tested it once late last year and have so far tested it twice this year. Hopefully third time is the charm tonight

Eisenhower - WWII Historical - 10mm Western Desert c1942, fictional battle, but plausible historical forces

Variant of What a Cowboy featuring  Triffids attacking the cast of Bonanza

Warhammer 40k. Space Marines vs Tyrannids. Good scenario, culminating in a reprise of all those scenes in the Alien movies where aliens get into the landing ship.

! GdA2 so far

That sounds ace, in a mad kind of way!

What's the plan?  Since retirement I have logged every game played.  In 2024 it came to exactly 100.  This is now the target for each and every year.

No real plan,just seeing if we are actually playing less or more.

The third time was indeed the charm last night, we tweaked the stats on a couple of units.
We also came up with a way of measuring how badly the Royalists were defeated as they have no chance of defeating the Parliamentarian forces.

Retirement is a boon and good for my play record:
2019   58
2020   26
2021   45
2022   65
2023   76
2024   100
It must have allowed me to double my gaming!

2 games of Lord of the Rings Duel for Middle Earth board game. Against my wife! She was willing to play a second game, which is pretty good news, as she's normally a bit a grudging board gamer. This is a fun quick and moderately complex game - would recommend.
