My next game I just got to have is The Killing Ground, but people seem generally reluctant to give up their copies...

The Battle for Normandy is probably better.  Not as pretty, though.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

If by better you mean more playable, probably.  And definitely not as pretty.

List Item # 80 is "Trafalgar", a 1968 title self-published, which this thread says went for $1,035.00 on eBay.  http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/284353/the-mighty-trafalgar-s1035-on-ebay Yikes! 
I owned that game at one time.  It was actually a pretty good game.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

You're welcome to join the next Languish game when that inevitably comes to being.  :)

Aight.  My usual M.O. is to try to learn a game solitaire first, so I don't get my ass kicked too badly.  :blush:

String them along Cal. Then don't play with them.

Easiest way to learn is to just jump into a game.

As long as you don't play Turkey. Or Habsburgs. Or...eh.
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

I'm fine playing anyone but the English, honestly.

Did a trial session with Twilight in the East. Goddammit, that's a game for hardcore :nerd:. Chances are I'll never have the patience to play it, but it looks so good I'm happy just to own it.
