Easy sells: Shadows over Camelot $60, Mansions of madness $100 - $150, Blood bowl team manager $50, Harry Potter wand Priceless. Definitely a good hull.
Haha this is a bigger collection than I have! The dnd games are fun but really simple. Arkham horror 2e still has a lot of fans even though 3e came out. There are a lot of cool games there. Reminds me of walking into my local game store 7ish years ago.
Blood Bowl Team Manager is awesome game. Kingdom Builder is also quite fun. Shadows over Camelot make hidden traitor fun before Battlestar Galactica. Space Hulk is great. Generally a lot of really good games you get there. Nice haul for that money.
Nice haul! Not sure I would blindly do something like that, but I think the value is there for what you got. I need to get better at selling games we don't want. Right now they are just piling up in our closet lol
I plan on discussing the journey on how things are selling/moving and what I end up keeping/playing. I think this was a great investment overall for the channel :)
indeed! just got my new 2ndHand copy of it with Dunwich expansion. You see the ancient gameboard and component stuff , but you kinda feel the love of the designers it received back in the days :) excited bringing it to table again after bigC lockdown
@@GameBrigade Probably 2nd Ed. First edition was made in like 1986 and 3rd edition has a modular board and is scenario driven. If the board is dark, it is the first printing, all subsequent printings had a lighter colored board.
Man, you got a deal! Some very good out of print games, Blood bowl team manager card game, Dungeon twister prison, Acquire, Space Hulk card game, Red November. LoftR Confrontation, War of the Ring, Eclipse (needs the 1st expansion and ships to be great and you've got it), Shadows over Camelot. Evolution Climate are just great games. Give a try before sell them. Mansion of Madness 1st ed allows you to be the keeper and has the tiles and minis that make for first expansion for the 2nd ed. I have both and will keep both. I just didn't buy that expansion in the 2nd ed. The Dungeon & Dragons board games are the best dungeon crawlers to play with children, fast and simple. My daughter loved it, when she had 6 years. There a lot good family games. Blokus, Kingdom builder, etc.
@@GameBrigade I've played that, it's chaotic and long. A "take that" game, a much better Munchkin. It's a classic and has a lot of fans, I'm not one of them. But it is one of a kind and a good game, for sure.
@@GameBrigade I love Eclipse, it is on my top 10. I did not buy the new edition, because I think the game needs 9 turns and I like the retro scifi style, maybe its just nostalgia (or because the kickstarter campaign did not show any respect for the long time fans of the game, no upgrade pack). I've play it a lot, for ten years now. Allow me some advises. Try to play with a full table, 6 players, that like hard and clever resource management, develop tech tree and lot of conflict and negotiating, for 4 to 5 hours. Use the tiles with portals from the exp Rise of Ancients, always put them on the pile and shuffle them. The base game can lock players in regions, because of wormholes movement system. Always use the rare technologies and take all the tiles for a future market. Use the system of turn order of the expansion, it's the same as you pass play. Always use the variant of the Alliances. This is a long 4x game and with this expansion even the weak player can be decisive for the final victory. Nobody is out of the game prematurely. Eclipse this way is the best space opera diplomacy. Give it a try!
@@aritovi eclipse is one of the biggest wins for me personally in this collection. But I opened the big box up it was a mess so it took me about three and a half hours to organize everything and sure all of the components were there and then open up the expansion and combine it with the base game. I'm extremely excited for it and looking forward to getting a game day soon. Now the second edition people said was great at any player count would you say the same for first edition.
@@GameBrigade I don't know any good solo variant, and the game plays good 2 and 3. At 5 it's OK (they made a playmat for 5 players in 2nd ed., I don't like it). With 4 very good. At 6 great. For my taste, of course. The 2nd edition has very minor changes in the gameplay, just price of tiles and powers of races, the biggest one is taking out one turn of the game. And that's worse. This game is a epic civilization building and fighting in space and needs time to achieve the perfect peek.
This was a fun video but I would not expect you to keep doing this! you run out of space lol Kingdom Building is a neat game, we don't play it anymore, but it was one that we enjoyed for a while. I really like White Chapel, and Blockus! a classic for me! Shadows Over Camelot, Climate Evolution, Mansion of Madison, Arkham Horror are all games I have hear good things about but haven't play myself. seems like a pretty great deal :)
I have Shadows over Camelot. Pretty good game if you have people to play with. Themed around Camelot, you use cards to quest for the grail, defeat barbarians, and a couple other Arthurian quests. You can even play where you have a traitor in the group which is neat. The descent would be cool to get as the new one looks hella expensive and I already have/waiting on another dungeon crawler (Altar Quest and Bardsung)
Looked like there was a small box game you pulled out but didn't name the same time you pulled out Dingo Dream. I think it was 8 Minute Empire. It Is an older Red Raven game but is still well rated.
I own 6 of the games: Castle Dice, Everdell Bellfaire, Evolution Climate, Dingo's Dreams, New York 1901, and The Awful Green Things. I was surprised how many I've never heard of. It's a little depressing to think that for today's new games it could cost $400 to fill up just one of those boxes.
Yeah, you got a decent buy at $400. I couldn't tell for sure but it looked like with Eclipse they'd already swapped the Ship Pack One ships for the base ships. Clearly whoever you bought the game from worked at or had a good relationship with a game store, Alliance is the biggest game distributor & those would have been boxes of their orders for stock.
Lots of great games in that haul! There’s a lot of games from FFG from 5-6 years ago when they were printing a lot more games than they do now. I’d be interested to know if you manage to sell Mansions of Madness 1st ed. I have it laying around somewhere, never been played. I think I might have been that guy in another life XD. I used to own Shadows over Camelot, great little traitor game with lots of things to do. Many classics from the pre-Kickstarter era in there!
@@GameBrigade that’s normal for the game (retail Version). The KS version had more Minis and therefore. For example your box should have 1 big skeleton Mob but no other Little skeletons.... for a Sandbox game it has some nice mechanics - all in all lot of good cheap stuff you definitely can work with (that was my thought). And by the way: 1 trap sucks - you’ll find out which
$400 for all of that? assuming they're all complete, you made out like an absolute bandit. descent, ashardalon, shadows over camelot, mansions of madness, arkham, eclipse, white chapel, evolution can almost cover your cost on their own. nice score! ...battle of the sexes is absolute garbage, though, and under no circumstances should you play it with your wife unless you're willing to risk divorce. :p
@@GameBrigade hopefully they updated the questions in the newer editions. the original one was, ironically, super sexist. the premise is that dudes answer dudette questions and vice versa, with the idea that guys like "guy stuff" (sports and cars) and girls like "girl stuff" (hair and outfits and cooking) and never the twain shall meet. iffy premise right out the gate, but it gets worse: the guy [girl stuff] questions would be like "how many buttons are on a 18th century english bodice?" and the girl [guy stuff] questions would be like "what color is the 8 ball in a game of pool?" those really aren't exaggerations, either. o.O so... you have been warned! ;) (we house ruled it such that if no one from the opposing team could answer correctly, the turn taker could draw a new card. even then, the games were very lopsided.)
@@GameBrigade not sure but i'd be curious to find out since i'm a huge simpsons geek. you should play it and find out! ...for science! :D (but bring backup games in case it's still terrible hehe)
I think people are selling Acquire for 150$ cause of how rare it is, based on that and everything else you got here I think you made up your money, depending on what you sell.
@@GameBrigade Ha! Can't be as noob as me. A year and a half ago I didn't even know boardgames like these still existed (other than warhammer obviously). I thought they died out with the original Warhammer Quest. Now I have an entire room of games I've never (and may never) played. Ha! However my brother and I freaking love Blood Bowl. It's been around since the late 80's? he still has his first edition (I recently painted it for him). The last and next video-game version of it are freaking awesome too. I also currently have about $700 worth of the brand new version that just came out sitting in a cart... tempting me to buy it.
@@sethpeterson8261 I believe I played a video game on the Sega Genesis for blood bowl back in the 90s. I'm not it's my only knowledge of the franchise.
My guess is that if you sold All the games you would make a profit. With keeping some of the better games in your collection then you might break even. Or at least come close ($375.00 for all the games you don't add to your collection.)
I’m really late to the party, and even though I own a decent amount of these, I’d probably give you about 500 for the ones I don’t own, if it wasn’t for the shipping costs to Norway. :D Lots of great games here! And some really shitty ones... ;)
Taste is really subjective, of course, but Batlle of the Sexes and Drunk Quest really stood out for me as the worst of the worst, but I haven’t played 2/3 of all the games, so there could be some other notable stinkers. Here they are, ranked by their avg. ratings on Boardgame Geek, to give you sort of a «neutral» opinion, and I’ll also note if I own them (or other editions of them): 8.1 Everdell: Bellfaire (expansion; I own this excellent game and all of its released expansions) 7.9 Eclipse (in my collection and my top 10) 7.8 Age of Steam 7.8 War of the Ring (I own the 2nd edition, which is in my top 10) 7.7 Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition) (I own the 1st edition and all of its expansions, like you) 7.6 Evolution: Climate 7.6 The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game (in my collection and my top 10) 7.5 Lord of the Rings: The Confrontation 7.4 Letters from Whitechapel 7.4 Blood Bowl: Team Manager - The Card Game 7.3 Acquire 7.3 Dungeon Twister 2: Prison 7.3 Mansions of Madness 7.3 Arkham Horror (in my collection and very good for its age) 7.2 Gosu: Kamakor (an expansion) 7.1 Leviathans 7.1 Shadows over Camelot 7.1 Wiz-War (Eighth Edition) 7.1 Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of Ashardalon Board Game 7.0 Dungeons & Dragons: Castle Ravenloft Board Game (in my collection and one that my kids love) 7.0 Space Hulk: Death Angel - The Card Game (in my collection and very neat) 7.0 Kingdom Builder (from the same designer as my all-time favorite game, Dominion, this a great staple in my collection, despite its appearance) 6.9 Blokus 6.8 New York 1901 6.7 Bootleggers 6.7 Castle Dice 6.7 Puzzle Strike 6.6 Eight-Minute Empire 6.6 Myth 6.5 Cargo Noir 6.5 The Awful Green Things From Outer Space 6.4 Beowulf: The Movie Board Game 6.4 Metro 6.3 Castellan 6.3 DrunkQuest 6.3 Red November (silly but very enjoyable game; in my collection) 6.2 Dingo’s Dreams 5.7 Clue 5.6 The Lord of the RIngs Dice Building Game (in my collection, and I really like it, but I probably wouldn’t if I didn’t love Tolkien) 5.5 Miskatonic School for Girls (which is a Cthulhu game, not a Harry Potter game) 5.5 The Last Banquet 5.4 Yahtzee (which I own, because my wife likes it) 5.2 Mad Zeppelin 4.7 Battleship 3.5 Battle of the Sexes As you can see, my taste differs quite a bit from that of the general masses, so you should probably not listen to me, as I hate DrunkQuest, yet it has the same rating as Red November, that I really like. Generally speaking, I think all games with a rating of 7 and above are objectively great games, even though they might not be for you. You should at least try them, and if you decide to get rid of them, you probably won’t have any problems getting at least USD 400 for those 20 games (and two expansions) alone. You can probably find some personal gems even below that, but for those games below 6? They are probably not worth having, even though some might appeal to you. You should try them out, though, to form your own opinion on them. Your taste may differ dramatically from both mine and others’. Good luck!
@@oschiott this was a great comment. Thank you for taking the time to list that and explain it so well. I have been working my way through the games and have already decided to keep a few. I’ve sold the war hammer game for $35.

I think people are selling Acquire for 150$ cause of how rare it is, based on that and everything else you got here I think you made up your money, depending on what you sell.
$400 is a good value for all of that.
I was nervous I over paid tbh
Nice haul!
thats a second edition arkham horror and 1st mom
What a loot !
Crazy deal just for the good ones... but how can you possibly not know what Blood Bowl is?
I’m a noob board gamer
@@GameBrigade Ha! Can't be as noob as me. A year and a half ago I didn't even know boardgames like these still existed (other than warhammer obviously). I thought they died out with the original Warhammer Quest. Now I have an entire room of games I've never (and may never) played. Ha!
However my brother and I freaking love Blood Bowl. It's been around since the late 80's? he still has his first edition (I recently painted it for him). The last and next video-game version of it are freaking awesome too. I also currently have about $700 worth of the brand new version that just came out sitting in a cart... tempting me to buy it.
@@sethpeterson8261 I believe I played a video game on the Sega Genesis for blood bowl back in the 90s. I'm not it's my only knowledge of the franchise.
@@GameBrigade I bet it was either Mutant League Football or Pigskin Footbrawl. Both of which were sort of copies of GW's Blood Bowl boardgame.
@@sethpeterson8261 I believe it was mutant league football now.
haha great idea for an video! :) #stroragewars
Figured it might be kinda fun
My guess is that if you sold All the games you would make a profit. With keeping some of the better games in your collection then you might break even. Or at least come close ($375.00 for all the games you don't add to your collection.)
I should call the police on you. You just robbed the man. $400 is the price of one Kickstarter.
🚔🚔🚔
Would probably only keep War of the Ring, Acquire and 8-Minute Empire.
actually am selling WotR, decided to get 2nd edition.
Blood Bowl Team Manager is a fun game :)
I keep hearing that!
Red November is amazing!
It was one of the first games I decided to clean up and organize. I like the theme idea for it :)
@@GameBrigade I was sold on drunk Soviet gnomes
i think you just made ur money back on space hulk death angel lol
🤗 Woohoo. I'm suprised at how many of these games I dont even know about.
@@GameBrigade these are mostly retail games sounds like u been buying too much KS lol
@@TheHexyBeast literally my board game shopping is fueled by KS
@@GameBrigade lol and ive only ever backed one
I’m really late to the party, and even though I own a decent amount of these, I’d probably give you about 500 for the ones I don’t own, if it wasn’t for the shipping costs to Norway. :D Lots of great games here! And some really shitty ones... ;)
haha. What would you say are the worst games I got?
Taste is really subjective, of course, but Batlle of the Sexes and Drunk Quest really stood out for me as the worst of the worst, but I haven’t played 2/3 of all the games, so there could be some other notable stinkers.
Here they are, ranked by their avg. ratings on Boardgame Geek, to give you sort of a «neutral» opinion, and I’ll also note if I own them (or other editions of them):
8.1 Everdell: Bellfaire (expansion; I own this excellent game and all of its released expansions)
7.9 Eclipse (in my collection and my top 10)
7.8 Age of Steam
7.8 War of the Ring (I own the 2nd edition, which is in my top 10)
7.7 Descent: Journeys in the Dark (Second Edition) (I own the 1st edition and all of its expansions, like you)
7.6 Evolution: Climate
7.6 The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game (in my collection and my top 10)
7.5 Lord of the Rings: The Confrontation
7.4 Letters from Whitechapel
7.4 Blood Bowl: Team Manager - The Card Game
7.3 Acquire
7.3 Dungeon Twister 2: Prison
7.3 Mansions of Madness
7.3 Arkham Horror (in my collection and very good for its age)
7.2 Gosu: Kamakor (an expansion)
7.1 Leviathans
7.1 Shadows over Camelot
7.1 Wiz-War (Eighth Edition)
7.1 Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of Ashardalon Board Game
7.0 Dungeons & Dragons: Castle Ravenloft Board Game (in my collection and one that my kids love)
7.0 Space Hulk: Death Angel - The Card Game (in my collection and very neat)
7.0 Kingdom Builder (from the same designer as my all-time favorite game, Dominion, this a great staple in my collection, despite its appearance)
6.9 Blokus
6.8 New York 1901
6.7 Bootleggers
6.7 Castle Dice
6.7 Puzzle Strike
6.6 Eight-Minute Empire
6.6 Myth
6.5 Cargo Noir
6.5 The Awful Green Things From Outer Space
6.4 Beowulf: The Movie Board Game
6.4 Metro
6.3 Castellan
6.3 DrunkQuest
6.3 Red November (silly but very enjoyable game; in my collection)
6.2 Dingo’s Dreams
5.7 Clue
5.6 The Lord of the RIngs Dice Building Game (in my collection, and I really like it, but I probably wouldn’t if I didn’t love Tolkien)
5.5 Miskatonic School for Girls (which is a Cthulhu game, not a Harry Potter game)
5.5 The Last Banquet
5.4 Yahtzee (which I own, because my wife likes it)
5.2 Mad Zeppelin
4.7 Battleship
3.5 Battle of the Sexes
As you can see, my taste differs quite a bit from that of the general masses, so you should probably not listen to me, as I hate DrunkQuest, yet it has the same rating as Red November, that I really like. Generally speaking, I think all games with a rating of 7 and above are objectively great games, even though they might not be for you. You should at least try them, and if you decide to get rid of them, you probably won’t have any problems getting at least USD 400 for those 20 games (and two expansions) alone. You can probably find some personal gems even below that, but for those games below 6? They are probably not worth having, even though some might appeal to you. You should try them out, though, to form your own opinion on them. Your taste may differ dramatically from both mine and others’. Good luck!
@@oschiott this was a great comment. Thank you for taking the time to list that and explain it so well. I have been working my way through the games and have already decided to keep a few. I’ve sold the war hammer game for $35.
@@GameBrigade Blood Bowl is very good! I’ve played it a couple of times, and one of my brothers owns it. I’m happy you got some money for it, and I’m sure the buyer is happy, too!
I'll eventually make an update video to This video once I've actually made more decisions on the games/sold
I'm typing this before you tell us how much you paid, but that Team Manager Blood Bowl The Card game probably sells for more than you paid for the box.
No way 😬
@@GameBrigade No way is right. It's more than you might think, but not 400 hahaha
