I got Space Cadets yesterday. Whoever chose not to make that book a half inch shorter fucked up. Does barely fit into the box at an angle at least. Although it'll probably warp or mess up the box long-term.

For smaller jobs like this I recommend the Porter Cable 8-amp variable speed belt sander.

Some would recommend the 12 amp, but that sounds like someone overcompensating to me. This will do the job nicely and you get the level of control you need to get the fit just right.

Or I could just rip the scenario pages out and toss the rest in the garbage.

There is usually a pamphlet inside that tells you how it works. If you send me an SASE with $29.99 USD I will show you what to do next.

I got mine on Friday... holy shit there is a lot of plastic in this box. It's much more value for my money than I paid - THREE FUCKING YEARS AGO - but despite there being a lot of plastic the mini's look kind of shitty. Not awful but not good either. Honestly though, I don't mind at all. The mini's are perfectly functional and look good enough when on the board.

I'm very curious about this two player game that came included though.. it's a completely different game than the main one (different board, different objectives and and two decks of cards) I'm not at all sure what to expect.

Unfortunately there isn't much chance of me trying any of this out any time soon. When I ordered it my new son (and new house) were completely non existent and now that they're here I have pretty much no time at all for games.

I recently bought four games, and all of them should be here early next week.

Victory Point Games was having a sale on some of their States of Seige titles, and I took advantage by buying Cruel Necessity and Ottoman Sunset. These are solo games, which I love, and they will represent my first journey into wargames. Are these ttrue wargames? I have no idea. These games are both supposed to be quite tough, which is right up my alley. I love everything I hear about VPG, and I'm desperate to try Dawn of the Zeds 3rd edition, which should be out by the end of the year.

I also picked up Don't Turn Your Back. This will be my first deck builder. The reviews look stellar. I was intrigued by the theme. Whether the mechanics support the theme, we shall see. Evil Hat seems to have created an interesting setting--the same world as the Don't Rest Your Head RPG.

Last but not least, I picked up New Salem, which has some interesting and apparently humorous traitor dynamics. After ordering it, some mediocre reviews appeared, but I'm hopeful that the game is interesting.
