[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 3309943, member: 3586"] Battlelore is great. :) I got my first two games in on Friday (as my D&D group went in to watch fireworks on Australia Day). Good game. Fast play - we got in 2 games in the 90 minutes it took them to visit the fireworks, after which we resumed the [i]Age of Worms[/i]. :) [i]Days of Wonder[/i] is a superior board-game company. Runebound 2e uses 2d10 rather than d20, so changes the difficulty of various challenges. (Less random). They also added a couple of cards you could use to interfere with other people's movement, but as those cards then go to those people and can be used on you, I've never seen them played. Mike - how many people do you play with? I like Arkham Horror quite a bit - mostly as a solo game, actually. I bought both it and Battlelore last weekend, although my friends have had AH for a year or more. The new Talisman forums are here: [url]http://forum.blackindustries.com/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=12[/url] (The new Talisman game is not Warhammer-based). I do know about the D&D Board Game, but it (a) doesn't use anything resembling D&D rules and (b) isn't widely available. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
