Despite the fidgety-ness on the table, Small World is a rock solid game system deserving of its place in the tabletop universe—solid enough to engage the abundantly tactile production again and again.
When a race has become war-torn and fragile, players may send it into decline by flipping a single token to its shadowy backside in every occupied territory, indicating they will select a new race-power pairing in the following round. Each player may have one declining race on the board in addition to their active, collecting Victory tokens until it is eliminated completely.
For the more tactical mind, however, Small World offers a bit of heft as well. Reading the possibilities inherent in the race-power pairings, the opportunities on the map, and the intentions of the other players at the table takes a bit of mental effort. The choice of how often and when to decline is critical to creating passive income. Over and against the minimal use of the die, there is less luck and more cold calculation in the area skirmishes. Winning feels like winning because players are not operating according to the whim of fate.
Game 1 world series
After a stunning walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the tenth inning Friday night by Freddie Freeman to give the Dodgers a 1-0 lead in the World Series, the New York Yankees are looking to even the score Saturday night before returning to the Bronx.
The two teams with the best records in baseball, two legendary franchises, both rich with history and controversy, will take the field to claim the 2024 World Series title. But, in the court of public opinion, the entire country is divided.
“This trophy is what makes you go through the grind every day,” Freeman said after the game. “When you step in Spring Training in February, your eyes are on that. You do everything you can, that’s what’s worth it for me. I got here at 10:30 in the morning, got treatment and made it just in time for the hitter’s meeting. I’ll start it all over tomorrow because winning a World Series is everything.”
It started pretty tight and seemed to be an advantage for hitters early on. But both pitchers have also seemingly found an extra inch (or two) on the right side of the plate. It’s a confusing zone, and worth keeping an eye on as the game goes on.
While he struggled in both his NLDS start against the Padres and his most recent NLCS start against the Mets — where he gave up eight earned runs and walked four in just three innings — he also delivered a scoreless performance in Game 1 of the NLCS, tossing seven innings and allowing only two hits.

He also has started a pair of Game 3s in this postseason, allowing six runs over five innings in a 6-5 loss at San Diego and pitching four innings in an 8-0 win for Los Angeles on the road against the Mets.

“We’re trying to get a game tomorrow. That’s where our focus lies,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said postgame. “Hopefully we can go be this amazing story and shock the world, but right now it’s about trying to get a lead, trying to grab a game and force another one and then on from there. But we got to grab one first.”
The final score — Dodgers 6, Yankees 3 — does not scream classic. It is misleading. On Friday night, the 52,394 souls lucky enough to witness Game 1 in person beheld the rare sporting event that teems with hoopla only to find it exceeded. The two most famous franchises in baseball, genuine elites of their coasts, fought. And then with one swing, on a first-pitch 93 mph fastball from Nestor Cortes, Freeman managed to deliver the first walk-off grand slam in World Series history and limp around the bases 36 years after Kirk Gibson famously did the same.

The Aggies are pursuing the first NCAA baseball championship in school history and opened the scoring with a home run from outfielder Jace LaViolette. The sophomore led A&M with 28 home runs and 75 RBI coming into Sunday, batting .315 with a 1.220 OPS.
Beam has pitched in Tennessee’s rotation for the last three years. He’s been a consistent presence for the pitching staff and will go down as one of the best pitchers in program history. He ranks third in both career starts (50) and wins (26) in the Volunteers’ record book and has been a key part of the rotation for some of the best teams in the program’s history.
Associate head coach Josh Elander, who works with the catchers, said starting at the very first meeting of the school year he tells the Volunteers’ catchers to focus on their defense and not worry about hitting. Stark excels defensively. He showed off that side of his game Sunday, when he threw behind Ali Camarillo to pick him off first base.
