Last Tuesday I had the WORST game night in 5 years
Five of us sat down for Dune Imperium and after 3 rounds, two people bailed because they said it was 'too much math' and then one guy knocked over a soda on the board. Has anyone else had a session just totally fall apart like that?

The "soda on the board" part really got me, that's almost impressive levels of bad luck. After a similar meltdown I started doing a quick rules check with everyone before we even pick sides, just to make sure we're all on the same page. It helped catch the "too much math" people before they got in over their heads.

People act like a ruined game night is some kind of tragedy. It's a board game, not a funeral. The soda thing is annoying for sure but you just wipe it down, take a break, and laugh about it later. If two people bailed because of math, maybe Dune Imperium wasn't the right pick for that group anyway. Sounds like a funny story to tell next time, not something to be scarred by.
