CMON Feature Friday: Board Game Dictionary #1

In most hobbies, there is jargon. A way of speaking that can sound like a different language to the uninitiated, but makes perfect sense for those that are a part of it. Board gamers throw around terms like worker placement, alpha player, and analysis paralysis, and take for granted that everyone knows what we’re talking about. 

For this week’s CMON Feature Friday, we decided to look at some commonly used terms and genres in the hobby, and give you a brief description. This will be an ongoing series, so if there’s a gaming term you want defined, reach out to us in Facebook and Twitter using the hashtag #CMONFeatureFriday.
