What board games are you BUYING?

I really want to grab that one, but it apparently really needs 6 to 8 players. I don't see that kind of group very often.

Same. I love the idea, but super low chance of ever playing. Still might get it because you never know, and it looks super fun for those times when it does happen. Potentially might be viable as an office lunch time game too.

I just ordered this to play at work at lunchtime. We always seem to have around 8 people, this should make for a perfect one hour romp..

Legendary Firefly was $12 on amazon. wasn't that interested, but for $12 i'll bite.

1st Edition Broadsides and Boarding Parties...don't see this one every day.

Nice. Expensive or like a thrift store thing?

I found ten bucks on the ground at work on the same day that I was meeting someone to buy the old Battleline Circus Maximus. I first played this game at a SF convention in SLC, Utah with my cousin Chris, who was the guy who introduced us to everything geeky and cool. Some guy from Avalon Hill with bushy sideburns named Jim-something taught this and Titan to us.

Something happened to Chris, who was smarter and more charismatic than me or my brother. He lost a job with a big gaming company and eventually moved to Wendover, Nevada, where he spiraled downwards, working at a golf course as a groundskeeper. He didn't make it to fifty. His funeral a year ago was well attended, and the local casinos who knew him well comped rooms for many of the guests.

I guess the game lets me think about him before things went south.

Bought it pretty cheaply in an auction. Its been on my wish list forever.

Truthfully, I only wanted it because when I found out about it, I wanted to know what it looked like, as BGG didn't even have picture of it.

I'd been wanting Food Chain Magnate for a while but hadn't pulled the trigger. This week I found a used copy plus a used copy of Rum & Bones and then a (somewhat) clearance priced Furor Sanguinis - all for the about the same price as FCM new.

Oh, and then cashed in my points at the FLGS for a copy of Waste Knights. I'm done for a bit.

Yes, Waste Knights. Good call.
