Hey NeRBs,
We have picked another fabulous board game for this month. We played K2 last year on the channel and thoroughly enjoyed it!
Please go watch that episode if you haven't already, it's about men trying to find a quiet place to cry at the top of mountains. Yes, it got real on NRB.
Enjoy!
Hey NeRBs,
Courtisans is a brand new game (2024) but we already adore it - it's become an instant classic as soon as we brought it to the table!
There's backstabbing involved! What a shock on our end.
Players are all invited at the Queen's Banquet, and keeping in mind their secret objectives, they will hav...

Hey NeRBs,
Once again, our cast are trying to defeat the dragon Fafnir but they they will be recruiting dwarves to help them instead!
Nidavellir is a fantastic set collection game where players venture in three taverns to add fighters to their army. The highest bidder will get the best pick!
It's a w...
Hello NeRBs,

Hail to the NeRBs!
Oooh it's getting tense. This High Council has put the Kingdom through so much to achieve their own selfish schemes.
Let's hope they don't lead Ankist to ruin, but you know them... They do be like that sometimes.
Enjoy!

Hello NeRBs,
You're about to enter a fever dream. The ones who have played Can't Stop before know.
It's a blessing and a curse.
Get ready for this unhinged episode of Board Game Club.

Shlay NeRBs!
'Shlay' is my new word to say 'hello', I've just made it myself and I rather like it.
Do you like it?
No?
I DON'T CARE, it's MY word! (flips the table)
There you go, I've just explained the principle of this week's game.
Blabbi is a wonderful alternative to Scrabble...

Hey NeRBs,
Ooooh you've been asking for this one! Some of you figured it out - we hadn't added Nemesis to the replay month list ON PURPOSE.
We knew we were going to bring you Nemesis for MONTHS but we were so careful not to spoil it.
We would like to give a big THANK YOU to Awaken Realms for providing ...
Hey NeRBs,
The Flames Of Fafnir is a one of a kind game - one of the most innovative we've seen this year for sure!
Some of you may have seen some demos of this game at the UKGE (I hope you came to say hi at our booth if you were there).
Players are all heroes looking to defeat the dragon Fafnir before it...
PARTY PEOPLE!
I really hope you like that 90s reference - it's really hard coming up with titles every month!
One of the questions in our office this week was wondering what 'It' is, in Whoomp There It Is by Tag Team.
Do you have an idea?
We settled on 'It' being the party vibe.
Here you go...
Hail to the NeRBs!
We are now towards the end of our journey in Ankist. As the members of our High Council get closer and closer to their ultimate goals, only one will reign supreme.
We hope you love this new episode, it is absolute CHAOS. Only another few episodes left on this campaign. What will NRB play ne...
