Back and one cup richer.

I feel well blessed.

Entry to the venue was fucked up so I missed 2/3 of Windrose which was super sad. Hammerfall was insane though. And funny. And their singer was teaching us what to chant (their name) and people kept saying Fallhammer instead because that's apparently a running gag among them. So he was like "Guys, it's not that hard. The name is literally written down behind us". Turns around and there is nothing, only some cover art or something but no letters anywhere, which earned him a good laugh.

Anyway, due to singing along and only having enough money for one drink, I fucked up royally when Powerwolf came on. Especially at Armata Strigoi. First two "Ohoho"'s were fine, the third and fourth however made me turn into a choked cat which was incredibly emberassing. I am somewhat proud of my singing voice. Today it made me die.

Another thing was 1589. I do love this song. I do like the show they put up with poor Falk getting burned at the stake. I was unable though to cheer for it. So I let the others do that and just enjoyed the song. Fine by me.

Also made 4 new.... uh... "friends". And talked to a sexy nun (who also was the first one to run into the wall of death which was very impressive!).

Good evening, all in all. And now I go make myself tea with honey.

I PLAYED TWO NEW GAMES

We finally got the upstairs suitable for hosting and I got to two new board games on the shelf, Everdell Farshore and Dune Imperium!

I like Everdell a good deal, so when I heard about Farshore I was excited! If you haven’t heard of it Farshore is like. Alternate reality Everdell rather than a 2.0. In Farshore a few rule changes are put in place and how you score points changes from holding festivals to racing ships and finding treasure maps. Otherwise the core worker placement for resources + playing cards to build your city is largely the same.

There’s a number of quality of life changes I really like: the habitation mechanic is replaced by three anchors, so instead of hoping you find a pair you free play match 3 critters. Doubles in the center stack on top of each other. The game motivates playing specific cards with the windrose tiles (playing those types moves your ship). And the production is extremely good. The game has a high price tag but the art is beautiful and the components feel great to use.

I have a harder time recommending this with its $100 price tag. I would not recommend this bought at full price, I would recommend buying on sale or with partial store credit. It does play differently than base Everdell so you can have both coexist on a shelf. If you haven’t played Everdell you don’t need to, if the sea themes appeal to you I’d recommend going for it! Just try to find a way to manage that $100 price tag. Ow.

Dune Imperium is a worker placement/deckbuilder where each player contests control of Arrakis. Generally how turns work is rewards for this round’s conflict is revealed. Players use cards to place workers on the board triggering different effects, triggering the upper box of that card. When you’re out of gas you reveal the rest of your hand and trigger the lower box of reveal effects. Then we go to the conflict step and see who has the most and trigger any upsets.

Dune Imperium is wonderfully scrappy. Its less claustrophobic than Ruins of Arnak which keeps you on a hard timer. Here there’s ten rounds maximum, and each other becomes the timer. While its technically a deckbuilder/worker placement in reality its an intrigue heavy combat simulator, there’s a finesse to how you reveal your plan each turn to try to catch your opponents in a bind where they can’t do anything back. There’s a precision beneath the scrappiness that’s satisfying to work in your favor.

I liked Dune Imperium a good deal more than I expected. Its extremely solid, it does a whole lot with its subtle appearance. I give this game a high recommendation, I’m excited to give this a shot again soon.

Surprising Facts You Didn’t Know About Wine Bottles

We all know that the magic lies within the wine, but have you ever stopped to think about the vessel that holds it? Yes, we're talking about Wine Bottles. These glass containers are more than just a casing; they result from centuries of evolution, art, and science. From the shape and size to the colour and design, every aspect of a wine bottle tells a story that's as rich and fascinating as the liquid it houses.

Whether you're a casual wine lover, a connoisseur, or someone who enjoys Personalised Wine Bottles, understanding the little-known facts about wine bottles can deepen your appreciation for the drink and the drinking experience.

So, pour yourself a glass of your favourite Sweet Wines or Dessert Wine, sit back, and let’s uncork some surprising facts about wine bottles.

1. The Color Matters More Than You Think

You may have noticed that wine bottles come in various colours, but did you know that the hue serves a specific purpose? The bottle's colour can significantly affect the wine’s aging process. Dark bottles, usually green or brown, are the go-to for wines that benefit from aging as they protect against UV light. On the other hand, clear bottles are typically used for wines meant to be consumed relatively quickly.

2. The Shape Isn’t Just for Show

Ever wonder why Wine Bottles have different shapes? It's not just for aesthetic reasons; it also serves functional purposes. For instance, Bordeaux bottles have straight sides and high shoulders to catch sediment during decanting, while Burgundy bottles have sloping shoulders to minimise sediment disturbance.

3. The Punts Aren't Just for Kicking

That indentation at the bottom of a wine bottle, known as a punt, has several roles. It strengthens the bottle's structure, making it less prone to breakage. It also provides a recess for your thumb for easier pouring. Most importantly, it gives the illusion of a larger quantity, and who doesn't love that?

4. They Make Exceptional Gifts When Personalised

Personalisation is not just a trend; it's a significant aspect of gift-giving that adds a thoughtful touch. Personalised Alcohol, especially Personalised Wine Bottles, adds a unique element that can turn an ordinary gift into a memorable one. Consider premium Gift Packaging to enhance the presentation and make the gift even more special. Many companies offer Wine Gifts and Alcohol Gift Sets, including various wines and accessories, transforming your gift into a full experience.

Conclusion

So, four surprising facts about wine bottles go beyond what meets the eye. The next time you’re holding a wine bottle, take a moment to appreciate the intricacies and thoughts that go into its creation. Whether you are a wine lover or a casual drinker, these facts deepen your appreciation for the world of wines and their containers.

Looking to impress someone with this newfound knowledge or for a unique gift idea? Head over to Celebrate with Windrose to explore a range of Personalised Alcohol options, including Personalised Wine Bottles, Alcohol Hampers, and much more. Cheers to broadening our horizons—one sip and fact at a time!
