I know it is going to disappoint Seedy, but I bought Munchkin today.

Never seen that one before. We all have our dark secrets.... Just last night I was browsing through the card set on WoC. I left off at Weatherlight. I was like..... . Then just started browsing cards on Noble. "Natural Order" 30.00. I said to myself, I think I got that one, havent looked in my card folders for years. I did, six mint copies.  Then I looked at a couple of the decks that are still together that I used to run back in the day.
From the Elephant Deck

From the White Lightning deck


From the Land Destroyer




Reliezed I was a little old school to some of the players today.

BTW talking to a dude on BGG to buy Downtown Hanoi. Seems like a interesting game. I will probably look at the Mideast Version, if DT Hanoi is as good as they say.

Well, you are a parent.  It's a known scientific fact that owning children retards higher thinking.



But I will admit, Munchkin is fun as balls.

Awesome game.  Great mechanics for larger scale air ops than the usual fighter vs fighter theme.  The Battle of Britain one is cool too.

Ask Berkut how I beat his ass like a whore in the one Downtown scenario we played via Vassal.

Looks like it is what a board air game IMO should be and looking forward to it.

The board "air to air" games are just eclisped by the computer simulations now. Nostalgia only, would be the only real reason to play them IMO. Everytime I think of running an "Air War" fight with three Israeli mirages against ten raghead migs, I just cant justify it and I'm pretty good with the rules. Easier and better to fire up Strike Fighters 2: Israel. Air War, is in the end, what you get when you try to put a realistic flight sim on board.

I will still get the GDW Air series and the Heat of Speed :huh:I think it's called.

Had to ED. First thing that came to mind. Loved Jordan in this movie.

Ask me how it was boring as all hell.

Downtown is parallel solitaire.

Downtown is parallel solitaire.

I'll most and likely be getting Elusive Victory also. I think it will have different dynamics than DT. Different type of conflict.

A Faulklands version I think could be interesting.

I have EV, and I think it has much more potential, since it is not quite as asymmetric as DT.

I still like the idea of a fictional 1980ish WW3 game using that engine. That would be awesome.

That would be even better and massive. About late 1980's. From Norway to Turkey.

You ever play GDW's Third World War games? Totally awesome.

Link the 3 European games together and you get a bucketfull of Russian killin'.
