Haven't found the desire to play this game since I tried it out, my sister loves it, but then she doesn't play much.

Thinking of either getting Khet, Android or Small World for it. Thoughts? Khet looks like a winner?

Don't get Android. If Arkham gives you a headache, Android will give you a migraine.

I was done with Khet in about 30 minutes. Small World is not worth your time. Go after Cleopatra with it.

That actually sounds like a good idea. Mare Nostrum looks downright meeple-ish. Eww.

Whoa there buddy- MARE NOSTRUM is _definitely_ not "Meeple-ish". It's one of the best games of the past decade or so, trading PIRATES COVE for it would be a fuckin' COUP, dude.

KHET is really cool for about 20 minutes. You may take it out to show somebody from time to time, but you'll probably never play it. It's a collector piece. If you want the effect, just get a laser pointer and a mirror and aim it at RISK guys or something.

SMALL WORLD is pretty good. ANDROID is worth playing, and I wouldn't be surprised in five years if the game were pretty valuable.

The bottom line is that PIRATES COVE is trash. Ditch it.

I'm willing to buy Mare Nostrum solely due to the fact that I witnesses firsthand its ability to make two grown men want to bit the shit out of each other.

Isn't FFG going to reprint Mare Nostrum or something? Maybe I should just wait for that?

My Tide of Iron base game and Pirate's Cove for his Mare Nostrum and expansion AND either Small World or Android.

Which should I go for? Good deal?

I'd recommend Android. I guess it's not for everyone, but I find it much easier to get to the table than Arkham Horror (and I do love AH). But anyway, both are totally different games... although I'd say AH is more complex and certainly longer (at least comparing both with 2 players).
