Hi, I'm a teacher who uses board games to teach history. There are a few games I'd love to add to my 'rotation', though many of these are pretty obscure.
- Pandemic: Fall of Rome (I'm specifically looking for 1-3 additional copies of this; I have two copies, but need enough for up to 20 students to use it with a full class.
- Trekking the World, 2nd Edition (I'm specifically looking for 1-2 additional copies of the 2nd Edition of this game, for the same reason as above. Unfortunately, I can't use the 1st Edition of Trekking the World for class; it needs to be 2nd Edition only).
- "10 Days in the Americas" (I have the rest of the series, just not this one).
- Ticket to Ride: Heart of Africa
These games are seriously obscure, but if any of them are floating out there, I'd love to find one:
- Machiavelli (the Italian Renaissance version of Diplomacy; 1977)
- Friedrich: Anniversary Edition (2004)
- Siena (2005)
For my own personal collection, I'm looking for deals on:
- Everdell: Bellfaire, along with the Legend + Corrin Evertail + Through the Seasons card packs
- Terraforming Mars (base game) -- ideally alongside the Prelude expansion and the Dual Layer Player Boards.
- Dominion: Adventures
(I don't own Terraforming Mars, but I'm patient, so if you only have the Prelude or standalone player boards for sale, I'm in the market regardless. Likewise if you only have one of the Everdell picks and not others)
I also use board games as prizes for students who do well in the class. I'm looking for bargains on:
- Ticket to Ride (original or Europe)
- 7 Wonders
- Dominion
- Puerto Rico
- Pandemic
- Catan
Thanks!
EDIT: I don't want to share the photos online, but if any of you from the last two years would like to see the happy faces of my students holding up their spoils of war, I'll have them at the event. 🙂
