I was meh about Wingspan but am thoroughly enjoying this sequel. Very easy to explain and get in to but a lot of fun to play.
The HOLD/MERGE order is such a great idea. The threshold for free shipping is fairly high, so it's hard for a lot of people to qualify for free shipping in a single purchase. But the HOLD/MERGE order comes to the rescue! It allows you to combine multiple purchases until you reach the free shipping threshold, as long as you are willing to wait until you've hit that threshold before getting your games.
I wish other board game stores would copy this great idea.
Ulta Pro - APEX™ Deck Protector® Sleeves for Magic: The Gathering - Fallout Z (105ct)
7W:D is one of my all time favorite games, so I wanted the best insert for it that I could find. Dicetroyers inserts are usually very nice, and the design details on this do not disappoint. I was a little worried that the money compartment would be too shallow and not accommodate the official metal coins set, but the coins fit without any problems!
I do have some problems with this insert though.
As per usual with Dicetroyers, glue is required (some other wooden insert manufacturers don't need glue as their joints are tighter). This isn't a real problem, it just adds to the setup time.
Next, my main complaint: the card wells in this insert don't accommodate premium sleeved cards (anything >80 microns I would guess). All my cards are in Mayday Premium mini Euro sleeves (90 microns), and they overflow the card wells. I had to end up storing a few of each Era card type in a different card slot in order for them to fit. This also meant that the small, long piece that slots in to close off all three wells just had to be abandoned because the sleeves lengths didn't allow it to fit anymore. I specifically bought this insert so I could store premium sleeved cards... it was disappointing to say the least. These card wells just don't allow any extra space - which is a shame as the tokens trays have a lot of extra space.
Finally, even with the insert fitting all components properly, there is still just a tiny bit of lid lift on my copy. It might've been just a manufacturing quirk of my copy of the game, or it could've been the insert, but everything fit together flush in the box, and the boards and rules booklets gave it just a millimeter of lid lift even without any other components in it (while no pressure is applied). This is a minor thing, and I wouldn't have brought it up were it not for the other issues. It was actually a pretty tight fit in the box horizontally (again, maybe a manufacturing quirk of the box).
FWIW, I have the Repos English version.
For something like this, a luxury product for a niche game, it needs to be 100% perfect. Thankfully BGB imports these types of items so the shipping is much more reasonable for North American customers, which is why I purchased in the first place. The design ideas in this insert are good, but the execution is strangely lacking.
