My copy of the Ark of the Covenant came in today! I'm a very happy camper

I received two small additions to my collections today. I never much investigated the pros and cons of a dice game (any suggestions warmly welcomed!) but I could not resist the neat metal meeple-shaped box. It may also be another travel option.
The Dutch version of the Demo-spiel will also augment my customized Cf2 game. I already boosted it with the German version tiles some months back so it may be considered as a mild symptom of completism to have both even though the tiles are completely same ...

More mini tiles = more fun!

Please report back on the dice game…

Thanks!

There's nothing wrong with that!

My postman had to drive a long way from picking up this one to bring it to me:

And more importantly, the back:

Only 3 more Japanese boxes to find to complete my Möbius collection; 1 of which is already waiting for me in the land of Hills and Dragons

Not from the postman, but I picked up a copy of Hills and Sheep from my local game store the other day. It's always nice to be able to support local businesses.

Just received components from MeepleVault for an exciting project I'm working on and hope to share with you all soon!

Great to see you are still creating! Thanks for sharing the cool photo, but withholding merit until we get the details...

One more and this time quite substantial delivery awaited me in my office today. When I noticed in January people mentioning that HiG may want to give away some boxes of new Winter edition that they test-played, I wrote them right on and then happily forgot about it. To my surprise, I was among several other forum members who were recently contacted by the publisher and yes, today I received my first Extrawurst.
Ironically, a very spring weather finally hit Prague just today and winter is supposingly over in the Czech Republic but we will surely figure out how to deal with this

Here's what was waiting for me on my office desk this morning: two bags of different sizes, the Spiel Doch! 2/2018 promo tiles, a copy of The Gifts and one of The Signposts. I'm one (actually two) delivery away from completing my C2 collection!

a copy of The Gifts and one of The Signposts.

Congratulations. I’m eager to he hear what you think of them, especially Signposts, which I don’t have since I play C1 only. But that looks great!

Gifts and Signposts are technically C3.

Are they though? I thought they were in an awkward transitional phase
