The NEW New Boardgames Thread

Lock n Load publishing possibly has the worst website known to man.

Apparently they publish a strategic Pacific War game. But thanks to their RetardoSite, only thing I learn is that a Jap designed it.

I guess I saved 60 bucks.

Is Lincoln's War any good?

[Habbaku]

Nope. Steer clear of any John Poniske design. The man's a nice enough guy, but an awful designer who doesn't listen to his developers.

I dunno, I liked King Philip's War.  Light and fluffy.

Nice unpunched countersheets.

Don't you have stairs to fall down or something productive to do?

I'm just waiting to be awoken by the blood takers at 2am.

They suck.  They sucked when Mark Walker was going all weirdo Strange Things with it, they've just gotten worse.

Got charged for Pendragon today. I might have it by Christmas

That MMP sale is really very good. Too bad I already picked up Beyond the Rhine a while ago, but I will pull the trigger on Korea, with my new found OCS addiction still burning. Some people were talking about the BCS series and the Last Blitzkrieg price is good, but I don't know. And if I were interested, half price for The Greatest Day is a good deal. But I need to stay clear of that series...

How about Warriors of Japan/God?

[CountDeMoney]

How about Warriors of Japan/God?

They have a very strong following--especially WoG--and are very nice productions for their size.  Those prices are great.


And people rave about the BCS series.  Apparently that's a big winner.

Another BotB game. Yawn.
