Games that "fired" other games

Wron . . . ok, that's fair enough.

Clash of Cultures annihilated FFG's Civilization.


I'm finding more "older" games are better than newer similar games. "Preemptively fired" might be the right term:
El Grande is still one of the best area control games.
Cosmic Encounter is still the best at what it does.
Warrior Knights is still better than A Game of Thrones
Starcraft is still the best space warfare game.
Talisman is still the best roll-n-move (and still among the best adventure games).
etc.

THIS . . . is a man that knows of what he speaks. More wisdom has not appeared in a single post since Tom Hancock's review of Warriors of God in 2008. If Wadenels had girlie bits I'd be turned on right now.

S.

VIRGIN QUEEN fired itself.

Thanks, I'd almost forgotten why I post so rarely on internet forums. Fortunately there are well-adjusted people with 3000+ post counts to beat us lurkers back into line with their impeccable taste in boardgames and the ways in which the very names of said games may be uttered.

Also, Candyland, Cosmic Encounter, Monopoly. How does that word-sandwich taste?

Matt Loter says that fucking and drinking fires all this nerd shit.

Another whiskey for this man please.

And for the record Disk Wars can't fucking touch playing Scipio against Hasdrubal in C&C.

That is all.

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYBODY!
