Last night I did solo plays of Elder Sign and Lord of the Rings LCG. I like them both, though I think I prefer Elder Sign. It's basically Arkham Horror Lite, shorter game play and without a board. Good suspense though. LotR LCG was hard to win solo, got beat twice.

I've heard a lot of good stuff about this one. What would you compare it to?

We just did Dust Tactics (original edition) and Earth Reborn at boardgame night this week. Good stuff.

This is going to be insane on an IMAX screen. :drool:

Sorry, I must not have been clear enough. I meant that it is short-sighted (trying to be pun-ny) to ignore the fact that some of the Apple-base is myopic. I didn't mean that the Apple-base was short-sighted. And yes, they have haters, but the haters are directed more at the fans' attitude and...

As I said above (not sure if you read it yet before you replied), first to market was a huge deal, starting with the iPhone. For the most part, hardware quality, development barriers, cell/wifi service options are generally equal. Apple has a deeper app store due to being first to market. It...

Like I said, I agreed with you for the most part, but to ignore the fact that a strong percentage of Apple's fanbase is myopic is ummmm... short-sighted(?) Think back a few years when Mac fans continually concluded that the Mac was the best graphic design platform, when PCs ran the same...

First to market is huge, and in the case of the iPad, (generally) first to market and a huge client base and iPhone following catapulted it into the lead. I am guessing that if there had been an Android phone introduced at the same time as the first iPhone, and then a tablet at the same time...

While I agree with you for the most part, one cannot discount the "slavish devotion" that mac and iGadget fans have. It's not just anecdotal, it's been well polled in the past. For the most part, Apple fans will buy everything Apple even if the technology is more expensive and the product has...

I can't wait to play Earth Reborn. That looks like it's gonna be fun. Last week on craig's list, I found some local guy selling a huge collection of Tannhauser stuff, the base set, Operation Novgorod and a bunch of individual minis. Some weren't even taken out of the plastic bag! The whole...

I have the prepaint of the Purple Worm. It's really kinda meh... I thought it would be bigger than it was and it wasn't really even on much of a base. Go take a look at one before you buy. The size isn't what you expect, it's not very intimidating unless you are looking for a juvenile worm...

Clearly, I know it's fictional. But in previous threads, you have talked about what you would do if there were a real ZA. And without further qualification, these things you mentioned sound like, if it was you, you would've spread the virus yourself or kill the kid in a real ZA. I think it...

Gosh I really hope you are being sarcastic. Otherwise, I think you need some serious help... These are the kinds of things that are said prior to a Columbine.

This I agree with. I also saw another quote about Carl's pale skin when they were talking about what to do with the hostage. I noticed that as well. Carl clearly isn't thinking right. He was recently shot, he see's his father in conflict with Shane, whom he has some (misguided or not)...

I don't get it.... (a reaction to a BSG comment.) I loved that show despite the controversial ending. It was one of the best sci-fi dramas I have ever seen.

Well.... that is THE premier Boardgame website, and it is frequented by many designers - professional, semi-professional and amateur. :) Now, if you were looking to design a new RPG, I know of this awesome site that came out of the 3e previews, has a ton of active, intelligent members...

You should consider posting at BGG as well. A LOT of regular designers post and are active there. I just had a parley with Chad Jenson, the developer of Combat Commander, Urban Sprawl and Dominant Species.

I also see that wyvernstalegames.com and thewyvernstalegames.com are available too. They might have been better than thewyvernstaleavl.com Is the "avl" supposed to mean ashville?

Do they take paint because they are pre-primed or it the nature of the plastic they used? For example, the minis in Earth Reborn boardgame have a pre-primer on them so you can paint them.

Hey there! I was curious what boardgames are dominating your table this month year. I just picked up Dominant Species and that is getting some play. I also got Earth Reborn and I am wanting to give that a few plays as well. We've played a lot of the D&D Adventure game series in the past and...
