Tales of the Arabian Nights -- shipping

Games Surplus just sent me a shipping notice for TotAN.

Sag.

J&J Superstore has it for $47.99 for you Canadians, that's not bad. I thought that book would push it over $70. What's the MSRP on this thing?

This game is definitely try-before-you-buy for me.

general what's J&J Superstore? Is the different from the Real Canadian Superstore?

edit: nevermind I found it

US$59.99

So what do you think Zev? Is this thing any good?

Sag.

By the way, for those of you that already have a few games in -- is this thing PG enough to play with my kids?

Sag.

I like it. As long as you don't mind that this is not a strategic game by any means.

PG - I think so, though there are suggestive paragraphs - but that is PG. I know there isn't any swear words and I don't really anything out and out sexual.

Excellent. I think Amazon has mine hostage. I ordered this and another game and if I recall correctly, they said it would be August before they ship both to me. Can't wait! Thanks for reprinting this gem, Zev!

WHAT?!?! YOU MEAN I CAN'T FUCK A CAMEL WHILE CHARLIE BROWN FILMS IT LIKE I COULD IN THE ORIGINAL EDITION???

Is that the one with Leguizamo as the djinni? Man he was fantastic in that.

Never heard of the Arabian Nights mini-series. Checked it out on Netflix---and it is on the way. Actually sounds pretty good! And it is all on one DVD, too.

Thanks for suggestion, Uba.

(Still waiting for Boards and Bits to get their pre-orders in...)

Hannah Montana is more objectionable than TotAN.

By the way short of using a shovel I'm not sure you could set the bar much lower.

Wizards On Deck With Hannah Montana is all the rage at the house now. I fear Disney has become comfortable with eating its young to make money.

Bah, that ARABIAN NIGHTS miniseries ain't nothin' compared to THIEF OF BAGHDAD. It's one of the best fantasy films ever made, and it'll totally set you up to play some TotAN.

I take it that you're talking about the old silent movie? Douglas Fairbanks? Or the 1940s cartoon?
