The pause that refreshes |  |
I’m off to the beach for a few days, since I don’t have to work until Tuesday. Thus, I probably won’t be posting for a couple of days; I’ll have my laptop with me, but I don’t know what the Internet situation is going to be.
The second thing that I wanted to mention was that I got my Funagain order yesterday. The Great Brain Robbery is, indeed, a Cheapass game. The card stock is about the quality that you can buy from any office supply store, and it requires two dice, a pawn for each player, and about fifty tokens (none of which come with the game). That said, for $7.50 it’s a great value. The game itself seems like it’s going to be a hoot to play, and (as Cheapass admits proudly), all of the required pieces are pieces that are easy to scrounge from other games that you no doubt already own. Heck, pennies make good counters, right?
Battleground: Fantasy Warfare also looks pretty darned good. I’m impressed with the unit abilities and the command cards, and I can’t wait to get a game going. Sadly, I’ll probably have to wait until after my mini-break to give a full review of either game. They’re coming, though.
Anyway, see you all later.
