A thread for talking about your new shit.

Today I bought Age of Conan by FFG. I haven't read the rules yet but the board and pieces look nice. I love Conan, and luckily the game doesn't have much or anything to do with the MMORPG except the name.

Just played my first game of Age of Conan, even though we finished a bit early since it was getting late. Er...

It was great, everyone liked it a lot. About the right amount of randomness. The system for conquering provinces is just cool (you fight campaigns of different lengths and through different terrain). Conan moving through the world like a force of nature, helping and destroying as he goes.

Of course we had the Conan the Barbarian soundtrack playing. BOM-BOM-BOM-BOM-bom-bom-bom...

Couldn't resist.  $20 solitaire game about the Russian Civil War.  Apparently plays in about a half-hour; should waste some more of my time.  Same designer as the solitaire Israeli Independence game.


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.

Me neither.  Which is why I'm waiting for the Big Brown Truck to drop off my copy of The Devil's Cauldron today.  :Embarrass:

Looks yummy, except for the fake Cyrillic letters.

Yeah, perform an interpretive dance of Operation Market Garden for me by jumping out of your car in traffic.
