Nice games John.

I'm a massive fan of Eclipse, do you play it much?

I try to, but never enough. It's one of my favourites.

Mine too. In fact, I think quite a few people at the club are into Eclipse. I've played it a few times on a Tuesday evening; it's a squeeze (time wise), but you can just about do it with 3 or 4 players. Must arrange a game for one of the Sunday sessions at the Red Deer.

Anyhow, welcome to the club!

Mike Reid's Pop Quiz? Now you're talking!

Nostalgia buy at a thrift shop.

The pop quiz (yes THE pop quiz) and 60minutes to save the earth were my childhood.

Not 'Escape from Atlantis'? That was mine.

Updated.

going to try and trim this down.

Sure you don't want to take those under-appreciated masterpieces labelled "[FOR FREE]" and raid them for vegetable tokens? If you don't, I might take them all off you. It might even be a fun project to try and make a functioning game out of "Avatar: The Board Game" (for some reason I chuckle every time I think of that name). I'll find out what comes in each box and confirm this with you before we next run into each other.

I suppose the little men from campaign could be good sprouts, but i'm unconvinced. The boats and tanks from the game of nations won't really make good vegetable tokens although, the little containers they come in are probably most useful. The Hobbit has a handful of nice minis, but again, not really useful unless I want to grow troll shaped vegetables.... then again.... you might be onto something!




You can make a half decent game from Avatar by modifying the points system:

" I would definitely advise modifying the point system and rda number trigger though. Personally, I prefer keeping destroyed RDA as points and using the avatar cards as bonus points worth value equal to the number of players (cards recycled when pile is depleted) and an RDA damage to the tree trigger of 3."
