I have been playing cool board games for only a few years now and mostly only a dozen times a year with my gaming group but I really, really enjoy it and am determined to do it more often. I need to lurk through the thread more but does anyone else love Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures game? I don't like to use the word "retarded" ever, but this game is retarded amounts of fun so I bought two core sets from Amazon.

Nemesis Of Moles posted:Just played it again last night and it is a whole bunch of fun. I need to get some more minis for it when they stop being so expensive (never). I bought two core sets because technically you're saving a bit of money on them individually and I'm going to sell the X-Wings to my buddy that is playing the

Countblanc posted:No, Dominion is entirely self-contained. Decks in Dominion don't exist outside of a particular game - you make them using the cards available to you for that game, and then once you finish you dismantle your decks and put the individual cards back. It isn't like a TCG or LCG where you build a deck and use it over and over again. I feel like this an good explanation but it makes me think Magic the Gathering or something. This game is nothing like MtG and is its own thing. I recommend trying it out before you buy it if you can.. but you won't regret the purchase if you decide to get it anyway.

Dominion posted:That explanation was all about how it is exactly not like MtG, though. Yeah I don't know why I got a MtG feel from it

I ordered Dungeon Quest and 2x Star Wars X-Wing the other day from Amazon. Should get here today... I played the old Games-Workshop DungeonQuest years ago and had so much fun laughing and dying without really getting close to winning. I was a little hesitant to play the new FF version but I tried it out this past Saturday and LOVED it. The combat was a little confusing at first but once you figure it out it can be one of the best parts. There were 4 of us playing, one died pretty early on, maybe 5 turns in. Another died probably 8 or 9 turns in and the last two of us survived almost until the end. The other guy made it to the dragon's room first and snagged a bunch of treasure without waking him. When I got there I woke him first try! After that I took off and ALMOST made it to the door. When the sun counter hit the last three days you have to roll and if you roll a 1 or a 2 the game ends. Fuuuuuuck

A Strange Aeon posted:DungeonQuest is probably my favorite game. The FFG version is great, just for having the game in print and available. I wasn't a fan of the new combat at all, but the latest editions have rules to make the combat more like the original anyway. I guess I didn't mind the little mini games. I didn't feel like watching it was boring it was kind of fun rooting for the monsters to kick my buddy's asses! All around a very fun game!
