I went for a punched copy a few months back. Depends, you a player or collector?

I'm a player when I can find opponents.  I wouldn't mind sitting on this copy and finding another punched one, though.

Kingdom of Heaven is finally grinding along.  Could be as little as 2 weeks until the games go out.  Ditto Angola.
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, my brother, and our wives played Carcassone over the weekend.  Had never played it before.  It was fun.   :)

Same here.  So close...

I want my Jonas Savimbi counter.  I will make his little accent ever time he moves, too.

Hey Habs, you hear any jungle tom toms on the improvements on the 2012 edition of Wacht Am Rhein from the 2nd edition?  I've read some comments from Youst on the boards, but I'm having trouble looking for any playtest comments.

Now with the Hurtgen expansion, me want.

So if I want to get either Here I Stand or Virgin Queen, and potentially introduce some friends to it, which one should I get first?

I'd suggest Here I Stand, because it's finished.  All the weird questions have been asked and answered on consimworld or in the faq on Ed Beach's site.

Grabbed Raicer's The First World War from my FLGS. A month ago I realized that a very high level WW1 game that could be played quickly would be cool. I don't know if this is it (I understand that many people dislike it) but it was fairly cheap.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

It's a Youst game.  Don't hold your breath on it being worth a damn.
