Above is a deal for the board game Trains and its expansion Rising Sun for $39.99, with shipping in the US at $11.06 (so a total of $51.05).

That's about 37.5% off OLGS prices, and 57.5% off FLGS/retail price.

I'm debating on this one myself, as I'm not sure how often it'd see play, but the base game is fun, and I've heard good things about the expansion. It's a deckbuilder game, very Dominion-like, that also incorporates a board game with elements of railroad building games like Ticket to Ride, by creating train routes and expanding them on the board to connect cities.

Still, it's a really good price, and if someone enjoys Dominion but doesn't own it, it's probably a cheaper investment than getting Dominion and it's ten or so expansions.

Lab Zero (Skullgirls' studio) is crowdfunding an RPG/metroidvania style game and has a 30-40 min demo to play around with and see if it's something anybody here might want to help fund.

I found it a little repetitive combat-wise (though it is just a demo right now so hard to tell if that's going to be the norm or just a preview limitation), and its definitely pretty to look at.

Worth checking out the demo if you have a free hour, at the least.

Huh, it has a Valkyrie Profile styled battle system?  That's rare.

Tabletop Simulator Giveaway

Above has a link where you can register for a chance at winning 10 copies of TTS, even if you already have it. They ask for your email, first name and steam profile url (you can find it with http://steamidfinder.com/).

Thought it'd be neat to get for SR board game nights if anybody here gets lucky (and has the interest to sign up). I'm somewhat debating whether to pick it up while it's on sale this week, but the fact that nobody in my steam friends list even has it...

[Dracos]

Mmm

I'd be in.  I have the same wonder, but if someone wanted to pitch a game night with it, I could buy.

Hah, been so distracted I entirely missed both the sale and the contest.  Might buy anyway.

For anyone with a board game collection (or just a lot of card games), Mayday is having a giveaway offering to sleeve an entire game collection or up to $500 of sleeves:

There was a GOG sale a month or two ago, with free games if you hit some arbitrary goal.  I hit the goals.  However, I'm realistically unlikely to get around to playing them, and hadn't even noticed that I had unlocked them - I was just interested in buying a couple of games I'd been long interested in, and which were part of the sale.

The codes expire on Dec 15th by midnight GMT (which is 7pm EST), so if anyone is interested and has a GOG account, feel free to take them (and preferably post here that you've done so)

The GOG.com redeem page is http://www.gog.com/redeem

System Shock 2: NALSF8E904245D354X
The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena HPMA49048748CCA2GC
Banished:  RQ3VD26EED7B8C54JL

[Merc]

Awesome! I grabbed Banished (Haven't played any city-building/economics game in a while).

You rock, Miao.

[Empyrean]

I'm interested in the Assault on Dark Athena code, but it looks like you posted the System Shock 2 code twice.

Whoops.  I've edited the post with the correct code.

GOG has some summer sale going.  As part of that, if you download their client, you can get System Shock 2 for free.

I have no interest in throwing however many clients from various services on my computer, but in case someone wants the game, now you know the relevant info.
