Don't play D&D anymore.... by Sailor Rip	Jul 18th, 2008 07:54:38 AM

WoW, this sucks. ZOMBIES!!! Rules! by TheGoodGerman	Jul 18th, 2008 08:45:14 AM
Wow, Blizzard gives out Paychecks to hype their boardgames now, too? There are so many Movie related Video- and Boardgames which wait for a review. Maybe these games suck, but would be better fitting to a movie-related website. Try the Zombies!!! and MidEvil Boardgame Series instead. Easy Rules, gruesome fun for everyone.

Not impressed with this mini release by Animation	Jul 18th, 2008 10:51:40 AM
I've been a huge fan of the mini collections so far, but I'm not that impressed with this set. I've been following the sneak peeks as they've gone along and I kept finding the revealed pieces to be ... a let down. Now that I can see the whole list, I still feel the same way. I like the Shadow Hulk, and 2 of the Dragons (dont like the adamantine one, tho), the Chain Golem, and the Fire Giant (dont like the Fire Titan). So, I only like 5 figures out of the set. The commons and rank and file figures are also less useful than the last set. If I buy a case of minis hoping to hit a few of the 5 I actually do like, I'm going to end up with a lot of duplicates I dont actually like. I think Dungeons of Dread was a better set. Ah well, I'll pick a few up but save the bulk of my cash for the next expansion, perhaps.
Stop geek on geek hate, Art by Richard Cranium	Jul 18th, 2008 11:26:50 AM
Being that everybody in here is a geek of some sort to begin with, what's the deal with the geek on geek hate? Don't we have enough trouble without infighting? Because none of us will ever really be free until nerd persecution ends.
Massa, you playing Descent: RtL? by GoDFaDDa42	Jul 18th, 2008 11:34:20 AM
If you're not playing Road to Legend, you should be. It turns Descent into a game that can be played in 2 - 4 hour chunks, and a single game can stretch over months like a pen-and-paper game. It feels like the "finished" version of the game.

You realize art, that you are a Troll, by your own admission ;-)

I don't play many board games by Quin the Eskimo	Jul 18th, 2008 01:01:12 PM
but just started playing Settlers of Catan, and I gotta say, it's a lot of fun.
Settlers of Cataan by TCSailor	Jul 18th, 2008 05:45:34 PM
Yea, I remember the first time I played Settlers with friends and my future wife (married 5 years now) giggled every time someone said, "(Insert name) has wood" in regards to resources. Fun times.
Hate the idea of collectible minis by Grendel745	Jul 20th, 2008 12:20:56 PM
There's nothing more irritating when it comes to D&D than random miniatures. Many of the minis look cool and all, and the pre-painted is a nice touch for those of us who suck at the art of mini painting but really? Collectible? Randomly packaged? My number one reason why we largely just use pieces from other games, other minis and yes "pop cans" for large minis.
