A new Talisman Expansion is out called The Reaper!

Haven’t seen it anywhere locally yet but it looks good. I’ll Check LAN games after mass today.

No city expansion yet unfortunately. As always I recommend frequent checks at Talisman Island for news. Also here.

Game night roundup

Played a game called Descent Journey’s in the Dark last night. We didn’t finish as we started late (my fault) but it was better than I thought it would be. I would feel pretty good about recommending it to other gamers.

Then again for a price of $90 it oughta be good.

The subject of the Gaza operation came up. All agreed that Hamas are a bunch of bastards. My hesitation on the ground offensive wasn’t shared by anyone but 60% of the table criticized Israel for settlement activity on the west bank for giving Hamas an excuse. Barbara Lerner would take exception to that.

Speaking of gamers one of the guys saw The Gamers 2 recently and kept going on and on about it. It would have to be really funny to be better than the first one.

If you are an old gamer than this little animation will be cute to you. Click on Play video.

Isn’t that just what your mind’s eye saw you doing when you played the game?

My review of the game Monty Python Fluxx is now available on Amazon here.

We played it last night with a group that Fluxx-uated between 4 and 8. It was great you’ll love it.
