There are a few things about it I really love. Fanatic-Templar Send a noteboard - 02/02/2013 06:35:08 AM
For one thing, relative to games like Axis and Allies, it isn't long. For another, it really encourages the free-for-all mentality, concentrating on only one adversary is nearly guaranteed to cause defeat. Finally, it has very little randomness, which encourages strategy and removes those irritating moments where you lose because the dice fell unfavourably.
The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

Recently got Dominion, and while it's card, not board, it's been quite a bit of fun Jragghen - 08/01/2013 05:29:05 PM 1321 Views
Yeah I meant to include cardgames in the title but forgot Zeeb - 29/01/2013 12:02:11 PM 1767 Views
I've been considering Ticket To Ride - is it really fun? Legolas - 08/01/2013 06:01:05 PM 1826 Views
It's fun but it can get frustrating too, since some railconnections are much more useful than others *NM* Bergioyn - 08/01/2013 07:14:51 PM 770 Views
Trans-Europa is better imho. *NM* Stephen - 08/01/2013 10:53:41 PM 756 Views
Europe version is better, I agree. Also, If you like Eurogames, you'll like TTR beetnemesis - 09/01/2013 04:10:18 AM 1306 Views

I like it, but unfortunately haven't been able to play much. Bergioyn - 15/01/2013 03:13:12 PM 1441 Views

Picked up the new edition of Talisman over the weekend, and it is still pretty fun. Joel - 14/01/2013 12:27:30 PM 1374 Views
It's ok, I'm not picky about whether it's technically a board game thanks! *NM* Zeeb - 29/01/2013 12:09:50 PM 896 Views

Arkham Horror trumps everything. But yeah, Munchkin Chtulhu is up there. *NM* Panorphaeon - 01/02/2013 07:05:57 PM 746 Views
I have never played a good game of Arkham Stephen - 04/02/2013 12:35:13 AM 1485 Views
