Check out my friend's new board game! He's been working on it for the past year and it just hit the market.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1883736289/the-gentlemen-of-the-south-sandwiche-islands

and here's an interesting essay he wrote about it:

http://henryjenkins.org/2009/11/how_do_you_sell_an_artsy_board.html

PLEASE spread the info to any of your board game enthusiast friends! ^_^_^_^

Wow. If my college gaming club was still alive and well, I'd tell them to invest in this.

But... it isn't, and I am sad for that.

Hmm... Looks interesting. But I'm still trying to gather cash for Broodwar expansion for my StarCraft board game (which pwns hard).

Looks pretty interesting, a nice idea to spring it off of.

Did I miss the part where they describe how the game is played? It seemed like lots and lots of words talking about how awesome and deep the backstory is, yet I still have no idea what the game is like. Something about bridges I think?

I'd like to hear a more thorough explanation of the rules of the game, thought it does sound interesting. Reminds me vaguely of this logic problem:

This. I was excited after all the hype to finally see the game explained, but it didn't happen. Now I'm just supposed to support something that I have no idea what's it's really about? Seems like a weird way to market it.

i think it's because he's in the very very early stages of marketting, so i'm spreading awareness long before he (logically) explains the basic gameplay.

the fact that it doesn't seem there is my fault for jumping the gun : )

Yeah, but he's already asking people to spend money on it.

Myself, I will get a copy because I want to support, and I like board games. But, typically people like to know what they are buying before they buy it.

Have you played it yet? Maybe you could give us a brief rundown.

Updates 5/5





This game sounds really interesting and I respect his work.

However, it can be easily recreated, just like how we used to play WeiQi (Go) in school with papers and pencils.

Oh shit just realised this is in blogs -.-
