I'm really falling behind on Wizards purchases; board games have been taking over of late. Not really different this time around, but I did start to catch up. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Role-playingStar Wars Saga Edition... this makes the 5th edition of the SW rules I own (WEG 1st, WEG 2nd, D20 3rd, D20R 4th, D20 Saga 5th!). I've played the others. I think I'll get a chance to play this soon. Although, I don't know whether it'll be as a player or the GM.Expedition to the Demonweb Pits... I considered getting E2UM, but I'm more likely to use DWP in the near future. An adventure. Cool. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I'm not set on any Planescape references, but I love the idea of the Demonweb Pits.Cities of Peril... The last few times I've been in Melbourne, I've completely walked past the stand with the FLs on it. Cityscapes sound cool, and I do use minis from time to time.Dungeon Tiles 3... because I have 1 and 2.Dungeon Tiles 4... because I have 1, 2 and 3... and because I really want some wilderness terrain. Hope to get another set of these soon.<a href="http://paizo.com/store/gameAids/gamingMats/steelSqwire/v5748btpy7l5e&source=rss" target="_blank">Game Mastery Flip-Mat</a>... it's a 2'x2-1/2' battlemat that you can use dry-erase and wet-erase on. I've got a nice Chessex mat (about 3'x4') that's wet erase, but I'm finding wet-erase pens hard to come by. The size is just right for the smaller tables I've been using as well. Very happy to pick this one up.Board GamesAdvanced Squad Leader Starter Kit #2 - Guns - Because I'm interested. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Colosseum - the latest Days of Wonder game. I love DoW games, and this one looks very interesting. Hopefully, I'll get to play it in the next week.Pillars of the Earth - it's been receiving a lot of buzz on BoardGameGeek.com as a Caylus-Lite style game. I love Caylus, but this may be more approachable by my friends. One of the few boardgames I know based on a book (Dune is another), although I didn't really enjoy the book! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />BooksThe Chronicles of Amber by Roger Zelazny. One of my favourite series; this collects books 1-10 together. I bought it because I didn't own books 6 & 7. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Ysabel by Guy Gavriel Kay - I didn't even know it was coming out; but I'm a big Kay fan. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Cheers!</blockquote>
