Hey I finally decided to hop on Lemmy from Reddit and got Booster for Lemmy as my first random choice (if u have another recommendation please tell me).

Now back to the title, a couple years back I downloaded I don't remember where, a copy from the base game of Munchkin, printed it and made a fun project with some cardboard and stuff, I would like to do the same again with a couple tabletop games, but I couldn't find a place to grab said archives.

If someone can point me a direction I already thank you in advance!

Peace out

If you have a 3D printer, you can get started on some Warzhammer 40k or some BattlespaceTech. For the Emperor's cousin!

I don't, but I will in the future!

Damnit, I came here to not spend money, not buy FishMechs on patreon!

Then you DEFinitely do not want to look into friendly, gray-area Telegram groups. Ahem.

Google "da archive" and be prepared for a rabbit hole of archived 4chan threads and indexes that probably have whatever games you're looking for if you're willing to dig long enough

[-] MakerThe11@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

I have never used 4chan, scared of that place.

This stuff is generally archived and indexed elsewhere, that's just where the main request threads are

@MakerThe11 https://web.archive.org/web/20210506160042/https://thetrove.is/Books/ don't click links, save them (Edit: this is mostly ttrpg books, there might be another section of the trove archived for what you're looking for though.)

Check out "The Amber Room" on telegram, it's the spiritual successor of The Grove. Very actively updated with a secondary requests channel that has never let me down.

I still mourn the loss of thetrove. There are sometimes archives or clones of it around though.

Can't help with your main request, but Boost for Lemmy is the best (imo). Dev was always on top of development for the Reddit version, and I expect nothing less here.

[-] KinNectar@kbin.run 4 points 1 year ago

@Telorand I started with Boost as it is what I used for Reddit, but after trying Jerboa and not having any adds and all the same fu ctionality I can't go back.

I paid for the Boost app on both platforms, so ads were never an issue for me 😁

[-] BrownianMotion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

dont know about traditional board games, but if you have a 3D printer look for "3d printer [game name] pieces"

connect 4, mouse trap to name a couple.

I bet boggle and stuff like that are out there as well.

Don't know what type of games you mean, but for scans and tidied up pdfs I use tesera.ru, boardgamer.ru, boardgamegeek file section, posts like this (https://t.me/s/Printandplaygame/39), soulseek and so on.

Edit, sorry, that insert word/url thing isn't working for me.
