    Power Grid was on my list but I decided to hold off on it until the next round of purhasing. Please let me know how you feel about it and what the difficulty level is like.

    Man I wish I had people to play board games with. Picked up Mage Knight (which is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) but I have no one to play with.
    If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

    I have it! It is very good, but requires lots of math and planning that can result in some serious analysis paralysis. The game is also long as hell, with 5/6p games regularly taking 3 hours.

    Has Cards Against Humanity been discussed yet? That game looks like an awesome game to drink to.

    Got Small World as a b-day gift today. Eager to try it out once I get my wife to agree to play.

    HELLS YEAH!!!!

    One of my FAVORITE board games of all time is getting an expansion:
    http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/1...he-lost-legion


    Amazon also has the base game on sale for 35% off. I hghly recommend what i found to be one of the most complex but insanely rewarding and fun games of all time.

    Got a new game called Android: Netrunner which reimplements some old CCG called Netrunner (designed by the same guy who made MTG) that I've never heard of until now. This game is the new hotness and it's easy to see why. I haven't played yet, but man it looks awesome!

    Update after 4 plays: Game is pretty awesome.
