Ive started playing darts and board games, mostly just solo board games though. I put together a lower receiver for my rifle today. Hobbies help keep us balanced i think.

    Viticulture is dope. You should check out GMT for some solo-only historical games if that's your jam. Can highly recommend Comancheria (you get to kill Americans, Texans, and Spaniards) and Peloponnesian War, both of which were designed with solo play in mind. The COIN series also plays wonderfully solo, and in the newest entry you can play as the communists of the Finnish Civil War. Also fun to play as the Algerians in their revolution against France.

      do most of those kinds of games usually have dice rolling?i should maybe try another dice game but somehow i feel like i can handle getting fucked over by a bad card draw than a bad die roll.

        So all of the game use dice to some extent, or have dice like mechanics, but don't rely heavily on them at all. Of all of them the COIN series is the least "random" in that there's almost no randomness other than events (it's card driven) and everything is "open" so you can predict what other people will do. Very satisfying when you win.

        EDIT: Also Viticulture is the chillest game because even if you "lose" you're still a well off vineyard owner in Tuscany just chilling.
