V6.5 Play Tagging

Von: Suzan
18. November 2025 um 16:56

Version 6.5 of the app introduces Play Tagging!

With Play tagging you can create groups of plays based on any criteria you want.

Use these play tags to filter the list of plays, the Game page, Insights and use them in Challenges!

The combined Play Stats will give an overview of stats of filtered plays, a perfect recap for a gaming weekend or series of plays.

If you have imported plays from BoardGameArena or Yucata previously, using the already created “Digital” play tag helps to view your stats just the way you want.

Use Play Tagging to:

  • Add any number of tags to your plays
  • Filter on Play tags throughout the app
  • View combined Play Stats
  • Use a “Digital” tag to filter online plays
  • Use Play tags in Challenges
  • Optionally post Play tags to BGG as comment
Example Play Stats

You can read all about Play tagging on our Tagging page. Tagging is part of the Power expansion.


Tip: “Digital” tag

You can add the “Digital” tag to any play you want, but you can also add the tag to previous plays with Multiple Select.
As an example, if you logged some plays on the location “Watergate app“:

  • Go to the “Watergate app” Location
  • Tap ‘Select‘ at the top of the screen (this is the word ‘Select’ on iOS and lines with a checkmark on Android)
  • Tap ‘All‘ at the bottom of the screen (or only select the plays you want to tag)
  • Tap ‘Edit… ‘
  • Tap ‘Edit Tags…‘

Armoured Clash: Alliance Battlegroup – Vive La France!

17. November 2025 um 22:45

You supply the ink. The soldiers supply the blood.

Peter reviews the Alliance Faction Battlegroup for Armoured Clash by Warcradle Studios.

Warcradle keep releasing the cool models for Armoured Clash, and this time it’s the turn of the Latin Alliance. There’s also more great news in this video, because they’ve announced the return of Firestorm Armada, the classic spaceship combat game originally by Sparta Games.

Remember to download my Armoured Clash rules & reference before playing your own games (and recently updated) – it’s in Tabletop Codex too!

I am Watercolor Man – An Origin Story Review

17. November 2025 um 15:00
Origin stories are the worst. This is coming from a cretin who ingests superhero content via cinema as opposed to paper. I don’t want to see Thomas and Martha Wayne murdered by a low life, again. We’ve had 10 Spider-Mans in the past couple decades; I’ve already rode that ride. I would much rather watch…

Marvel Champions Falcon Hero Pack

16. November 2025 um 17:58
The character was first introduced by no other than Stan Lee and artist Gene Colins in Captain America 117 back in Sept 1969. Otherwise known  as Samuael Thomas Wilson. Facon has mechanical wings which he uses to swoop in and help save the day. He is also an expert bird trainer with basic empathic and technopathic abilities over birds in the comics and is the Uncle of Jim Wilson friend of the Hulk’s and who was the first notable HIV positive character, who’s father would go on to join the Gama Corp. The Falcon was always a strong character who was always ready to help those who need it. With his tech, ability to fly with Tech and his excellent fighting abilities he is quite a strong character despite his having no super powers.
 
 
In the game his unique ability is being able to manipulate the top card of the encounter deck allowing players to plan ahead and make strategic choices. His “Eagle-Eyed” ability, combined with his “aerial” cards, gives him strong defensive and offensive capabilities, especially in a multiplayer setting, whihc means he is an adaptable and excellent control-focused hero. This is a strong Leadership deck with synergies built around aerial cards, as you would expect, as well as other valuable cards that can be used with other heroes.
 
Falcon is an all round character who doesn’t specialise in one area so is good to fill holes in your roster especially with a smaller team roster, but lacks a specialism to excel in a bigger team of heroes.

BLOOD BOWL Season Three – with Painted Miniatures!

11. November 2025 um 03:59

On any given Sunday you’re gonna win or you’re gonna lose.

Season Three of Blood Bowl is kicking off!

I made a lot of videos for Games Workshop last year, but unfortunately this year they’ve seen fit to not send me a single thing up to this point this year. So it was nice to see Blood Bowl: Season Three land on the doorstep. This is a very nice new edition with two great new teams, some slight tweaks to the rules, and some very useful new status counters. Watch the video for a full rundown – and check out the painted miniatures!

Von: Suzan
08. November 2025 um 13:27

Power Expansion

More stats, filtering and tagging!

The Power expansion combines the previous two expansions: Deep Stats and Tagging into one.

This gives us the ability to create new features that use parts of both these older expansions. A new feature like this will come to the app soon!

What will happen for you?

If you already own the Deep Stats and/or Tagging expansion, you will automatically get the Power expansion, including all features. This can only add options, nothing will be removed.

More information about the Power expansion

You can read about all features here: Power Expansion.

7 Wonders Dice Game

07. November 2025 um 15:44

Gladly this is it’s own version of 7 Wonders with the right feel but with Dice to kick it all off. Each player has a map where they can build their Wonder, each of which has a few differences to their playability. You play for victory points as you build your wonder. You also have a pencil and eraser to help keep your playable dice scores etc.
You all start with seven coins and will use them to make up any shortfalls during your game and when the dice are revealed during each round they may have a cost for their use. You start with seven dice in the shaker dice box and as you play, the players change three of them, the grey ones with the wood, stone etc on them are swapped for the black, purple and white dice, so don’t wait around or you are really stuffed with your choice. As you use the dice they stay in play as another player may use them as well. the ability to play Seven Wonders in this way is an eye opener, as it does have a different feel and play to both Seven Wonders proper and Duel,


This is a fun new way to play Seven Wonders and you can order it at: https://www.bgextras.co.uk/7-wonders-games/7-wonders-game/7-wonders-dice

The Ornate Wheel – A Kingdoms Forlorn: Dragons, Devils and Kings Review

07. November 2025 um 15:00
There are two ways to look at Kingdoms Forlorn: Dragons, Devils and Kings. You can either view this unbelievably massive box as a vast world waiting to be explored and conquered, one of untold treasures and tragic stories. Or it can be seen as a crushing boulder whose massive weight embodies headache, labor, and anxiety.…
