It's a race game based on deck building, designed by Reiner Knizia. Rock solid lighter game with an interesting twist on the way the market works in a deck builder.

Picked up War Chest on the MM Black Friday Sale for $27. They had sold out, but, added a few more today.

Holy moly, it's a well-rated Knizia deckbuilder race game with glorious Ravensburger components! I'm glad that some parasite bought every single $15 copy and is reselling them for $30 now, or I'd have to explain this purchase to my wife.

El Dorado is usually in the $20-$25 range. It is also one of the best games of the past several years. It’s top shelf Knizia. We’ve played it A TON and it’s always fast fun. By far the best deck builder as far as I’m concerned. don’t hesitate to buy it if it comes up on sale again.

Bought a few things on the MM holiday/clearance sale. Mostly gifts for folks. But I did get something for myself because I like trying divisive things and I'm a glutton for punishment.

Plus it was only $8. What could possibly go wrong?

It is a very solid game, so you are certainly not going wrong at all. I've only played it once, so I can't comment much but it's like Diplomacy speed, except it doesn't have simulatenous movement. Very interesting game, if fragille.

Trust me, when trying to learn the game, you'll need the original EON Borderlands rules to figure out the badly written FFG Gearworld rules.

It's true. One of the reasons I haven't brought it to the table is that I'm not sure I fully understand the rules.
