Coup Expansion, Scythe (is almost here)

So we didn't want to drop 28 dollars on the full-box expansion for Coup (Coup Rebellion), so we just made some of our own cards for it. We took a Pinochle deck and wrote names and such on the cards. There's not enough cards in the deck to make all of the new roles, so we chose what we thought would be the most interesting and fun. Since we only wrote a small amount and not all over the place, the deck is still perfectly usable as a pinochle deck.

I'm excited to use it.

Scythe is coming today and I'm excited for that too. I checked the package tracking thing and it's in town, so we just have to wait for it to travel around. I wish there was a way that I could just have them hold it in the post office and then I could just pick it up right when they open. I would get it super early and it would be great. But that's fine, I have tons of other stuff that needs to be done besides playing games.

Coup

I love Coup so much. Yesterday I got an app (ScorePal) that can log all of my game plays and such. I played 64 games of Coup yesterday. 52 of those games were two player. The two player game isn't nearly as good as 3-6, but it has its fun own meta that was enjoyable to explore.


Anyway, point of the post: Coup is a blast.
I'll need to add it to my list sometime.


TØP Tidbit: The way the rap enters at the end of Nico and The Niners is crazy beautiful and the beat of it is sick as frick.
