Deck/Pool Building
Legendary: Encounters -
1-5 players Co-op Aliens movie franchise card based deck builder. So far I've only done the first movie 3 times, so we could try a different mix of cards.
Dice Forge -
2-4 players Dice building game (you use 2 dice but change their faces). I've not tried the advanced rules for this yet. It's a light game
Mystic Vale -
2-4 players Card building game (you have 20 cards in your deck but modify their faces). I've only played the basic without expansions so far. So eager to try all the expansions.
Played
Quarriors -
2-4 players Cute dice pool building game.
GM vs Players
Battlestations 2nd ed -
2-9 players oldie but a goodie. Everyone but me is a crew member of a tile-built starship where they run around to use battlestations to perform missions.
Guardians Chronicles -
2-5 players Players are superheroes versus an evil supervillain and their minions. Various expansions. Cards and dice.
Ameritrash
Xia -
1-5 players Great single ship, slightly random, elite/firefly game with great gamepieces.
Legacy
Charterstone -
1-6 players A 12 game legacy campaign of village building using worker placement and resource management. At the end you have a unique board and player powers. Replayable even after the legacy. Ideally we need the same amount of players for every game but it does have mechanics for missing players.
