Quotes (from this video)
- Everything that you'll see in this video, by the way, is linked down below in the video description.
- A lot of board wargames have chits, basically counters that you put in a cup and you're kind of closing your eyes and you're picking one of them out of the cup as you're playing.
- The solution? Bingo chips.
- The Oregon counter clippers, the tool to clip counters and make them nice and beautiful and rounded.
- So, I'm going to just show and mention the two that I can that you can get right now.
- This is admittedly a little bit big for a stocking stuffer. It might have to go below the stocking.
- So, you get from a magazine where everything's flying all over the place to a perfect game box with the storage tray for counters inside it.
- Be amazed how handy it is to have a big pile of dice that you can pull into the games that you're playing.
- Which were your favorite ones that you saw? I'd love to hear down in the comments below.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is a State of Siege game where you play as a solo player essentially.
- This looks extremely juicy. If you like soliter games, if you like tactical combat, I think this one's going to be a lot of fun to play.
- This looks like for fans of Japanese history and if you like multiplayer games that are going to give you a grand strategic experience, this like this one looks like it could be a lot of fun.
- This is an outstanding series.
- Halls of Haggar was fishly hard to win, but a fantastic gameplay experience and was very well regarded. This looks like the same type of experience, but another theme, another gameplay element, and more good work from Tom Games.
- Why am I interested in this game? Well, I was reading a book about Greek history, per Greek and Persian history a while ago, and there wasn't I realized there wasn't really a lot of games that focused specifically on naval combat in the ancient era, the era of triams and all the different reams here.
- Combat Commander Adversary solves one of the weaknesses in the game and that given the card-based nature of the play of Combat Commander, it's not a game that is very amenable at all to solitire play.
- This is a dream come true. This looks really fun to be able to play Combat Commander Solitaire and have a a smart and and savvy opponent to go against.
