The Weekender: Happy Christmas! Eat, Be Merry & Make Models!
December 21, 2013 by dignity
It's time for our Christmas Weekender although all of them since we've been back in the little living room fireplace setting have been rather nice and seasonal haven't they?
This time we'll be talking about the Christmas break and the content you can look out for along with some news from a community member AND a surprise present from one!
We will also be talking about the Battlestar Galactica Board Game from FFG, the progress of our get fit regime in BoW Fit Club and some of our favourite things from the world of gaming in the year just gone.
The Weekender will be back 11th of January!

Merry Christmas!
Now this is how I start my night at work. Thanks, guys!
IT was more Warzan’s reactions that put me off my cereal than the game itself
Merry Christmas, guys.
And Warren, if you want poo-o-rama I am sure it can be arranged..:)
How can anyone be that sensitive to poo pics? I worked for a plumbing company for several years. Warren would never make it.
It started 3 years ago, with a nappy full of the greenest contents you have ever seen.
It’s the subject of great amusement (o everyone except me!) when I have to empty a potty 😉
The joys (trials and tribulations) of fatherhood.
Our group played a lot of BSG and the first expansion, never made it as far as the second expansion. Never once in any of our games was I dealt a Cylon card, even when playing Gaius. The first expansion does a lot to the experience and I’d recommend to anyone thinking of getting BSG to also get the expansion. Not sure why anyone who is comfortable playing games like 40K would be daunted by BSG.
Merry xmas and a happy new yr to you all
warren may i recommend the Brian Butterfield diet plan?

@warzan ‘s look at 26:04 – hands up who was thinking the same about @dignity ‘s something for the weekend 😉
Not the first time I’ve said it: @deaddave you’re a bad man!
Yes. Yes I am 🙂
I was watching this episode during dinner. Thank you @deaddave.
I had to look this up.
As well as Plop Trumps, there is Plop Trumps Extreme.
So it could have been worse 🙂
That was the extreme edition, only the best for BOW!
Machiavellian. Perfect ! 🙂
Awesome, I’ve been wanting to find out more about the Battlestar game for a while after seeing it mentioned on Penny Arcade and Tabletop.
It does look like something I’d like to play occasionally, however for a regular board game night game, I do think people are right when they say, “The Resistance” (or Avalon, which you all talked about a few weeks ago) is a more lightweight option. – You get all the paranoia and backstabbing but in a 25 minute game.
I’m with @dignity Salute was the highlight of my gaming year as well. If only it was a two day event.
Judging by this weekender something tells me Lloyd will get a bit of mileage out of Warren and fit club but no than you’d expect from a brother 🙂
Got to get hold of that card game for my daughter. Ever since she was little the mere mention of the word poo starts her laughing. She’s 19 now it still has the same effect.
Mission accomplished. Managed to get a set of plop trumps extreme.
Why is the Weekender coming out on Frid… Oh.
I’m getting less sleep than I thought.
have a good christmas lads and thanks for the early pressie of a nother lovely weekender long live BOW.
Merry Xmas BoW!!!
Battle star Galactica. I’ve been so looking forward to a review on this game.Looks daunting but very good. Now all I need are 5 more friends that are gamers and have the time to sit down and have a game. 🙁
Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to all the folks at BoW and here on the forums.
I am liking the look of the BSG game a lot and will have to look into getting both it and the expansions, I think.
I loved the series ( although even though it got a bit shark jumpy near the end ), the game would be great to have.
Great weekender to end the year. Awesome card game there Dead Dave. Watching Warren through that was priceless.
That BSG game looks detailed enough to keep me intrigued for a while, now I have to make 5 new friends, get them into gaming, get them into BSG then I may have a game. Here is planning for Nov 2014.
Merry Christmas BOW.
yeah sorry guys, I asked warren and loydd to sign the book. shame i didn’t get justin’s.
