The NEW New Boardgames Thread

[Ed Anger]

So ronery.

Jesus H Christ, even after all this time the Wargames section of BGG is still polluted with that goddamned Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures bullshit.

I must wrap myself in the warmth of CSW, where Assburgers fear to tread.  ITS A PITCAVAGE TRAP

[Ed Anger]

I can't stand either one, but BGG's endless languish style Assburger arguments over trivial shit annoys the living fuck out of me.

[CountDeMoney]

I've been warned enough over there, so I stay the fuck out of CdM-mode.  They really take umbrage to the term "Confederatard".

I liked the reviews of that, and it's certainly more accessible than West End Games' Star Warriors which collects dust on the shelf. At least this is accessible enough to get friends to play.

The only thing holding me back: this looks like an absolutely retarded money sink.

You need the 500 page Star Fleet Battles rule book.

[CountDeMoney]

I didn't say it didn't look cool.     It just doesn't belong in BGG's Wargame section.

But yeah, total mini money sink.  That's the point to movie merchandising.

Now that's interstellar combat.

[Ed Anger]

Forgot about Rpg.net. Now that place is retardville. 

[CountDeMoney]

  Learned that one the hard way.  Talk about some headcases.

There's so much wrong with this...so much...

<insert pic of Star Trek Catan here>

[frunk]

And you weren't bothered by Settlers of Canaan, or The Settlers of Zarahemla (Mormon edition), or Settlers of Catan: Rockman Edition, or Settlers of America: Trails to Rails, or Starship Catan, or Catan Histories: Merchants of Europe, or Catan Geographies: Germany?

What about this particular cash in on the SoC name bothers you over the 100+ other games and peripherals associated with the name?  Settlers is the Monopoly of board games....err...

[CountDeMoney]

All Catan players should stuff themselves into an oven and turn on the gas.

But porting over Star Trek TOS is going too far, man.
