In terms of wargames (tabletop games where you control armies of miniatures against your opponent to score objectives and points), Warhammer is the most mainstream, 40K for the sci-fantasy version and Age of Sigmar for the more Tolkienian fantasy one. But I recently got into Star Wars Legion and boy is it a fun game. If you like the setting, Legion is highly recommended.

In terms of pure boardgames, my favourite ones miniature-wise are Bloodborne and Mansions of Madness.

I learned that my players will break any kind of logic puzzle in ten second flat, but can’t decipher a simple investigative clue to save their own life.

I was baffled at how much guidance I have to give them towards unraveling the mystery. I don’t know if I’m not that good at engaging their interests, if my clues are too obscure, of if they are simply not that perspective. They sure are creative with how they tackle problems tho, their shenanigans are hilarious

Look, with time and practice come results, and an immortal lich has a lot of time on their hands, if you catch my drift

“I am Arthgar the Everlasting, bow before my immortal pow… Could you put your pants back on please? I’m trying to monologue here”
