I'm Gregor McNish, gmcnish at bgg. I've been playing with pyramids since the early 2000s, but in fits and starts; I haven't found anyone nearby as interested in exploring the system as I am.
I have a geeklist of the pyramid games I've played on bgg.

Icebox[edit | edit source]
My current icebox (Generic gaming kit) is a Quiver, with
- 5 monochrome stashes in tubes (red, green, cyan, yellow, black) + 1 stash of orange because it's prettier than black for Volcano
- 5 volcano caps
- 3 white d6, 3 black d6, and pyramid, treehouse, rainbow and lightning dice
- Small bag of LBS
- WW5 board. One day I'll play it
- Martian chess board (from the quartet box)
- 20 black, 20 white, 15 green, 13 red, 7 blue, 2 orange, 2 yellow 1" wooden disks - for counters as well as lots of abstract games
- 2 copies of Decktet
- 1 Sticheln deck
- 1 regular deck of cards
- Drawstring bag from Pyramid Arcade
I generally carry the volcano board separately, as well as some paper boards.
Acquisition[edit | edit source]
- Stash tubes with red, yellow, green, blue and clear. Enjoyed Volcano
- IceTowers Set cyan, clear, white, purple
- More stash tubes, orange, black
- Volcano board, Pyramid Primer, ELBS, Martian Coasters, volcano caps from Looney Labs store
- WW5 Holiday gift
- Product/Treehouse in stash tube
- xeno and rainbow stash boxes
- chessboard bandana from LL
- Pink Treehouse
- Pyramid Arcade kickstarter backer, extras - extra trio of kickstarter green, and extra Xeno and rainbow box
- Sandships Holiday Gift
- Pyramid Quartet backer, silver and martian red Martian Chess and 2x Nomids (to bring Pyramid Arcade pyramids to full stash per colour). Pyramid Zendo cards and the bonus cards
- And of course I'll get Jinxx. Grey! but also if I got 2 sets I'd have 11 b/w/c rounded pyramid trios. Easy enough to make monochrome Arimaa or Chess sets.
