Board Game Arena

Interesting game but the rulebook really feels incomplete. It seems like there are pages missing (mine has 4 pages)

I'm adding to what the majority has been saying. The titling of this game is very distasteful. It needs to be changed immediately.

I agree, title choice is in very poor taste. I hope BGA doesn't support hate speech.

Traed ya Combo up!!

I agree - that phrase is still very closely linked to hate speech in the United States. I imagine it was meant in a playful way, but for many audiences I think it will come across as a bit of an insensitive reference to some very recent, very painful world events

I agree.

Agreed, please change the news post title. This is very tasteless and borders on racist dog whistling in the U.S.

I agree, as well. I'm happy to chalk it up as a cultural oversight, but it's easily rectifiable. There are definitely less volatile subject titles you could choose from. Might I suggest: "Rollin', rollin', rollin'... Keep them dogies rollin'... Rauha!"

Agreed! Not sure who at BGA thought it would be a good idea for a French board game service to use the political slogan of an American former presidential candidate but I would respectfully ask that they stop politicizing the site, virtue signaling and forcing their agenda down our throats.

Agreed. That phrase is so linked with hate speech, that I feel uncomfortable supporting the game.
I hope the community feedback encourages a quick and easy change.
