[QUOTE="Greg K, post: 5481822, member: 5038"] If the board game is just an option with ties to the brand l(i.e., the old Dungeon board game) and not the new D&D, I can go with it. If the board game is to be the new D&D, I say let the game die. Then again, I don't like board games (or card games, miniature games).
