My neighbors have it but I've never been really pulled to trying it out because I've been pretty satisfied with Arkham Horror. I have both AH & EH & like EH better, theme wise it's much closer to the Mythos than the Monster parade on the streets of a town. The monsters are keyed to the GOO your on a Mission against rather than the grab bag of AH . This is of course personal preference so take that for what it's worth. It's also more streamlined in mechanics than AH. You should give it a try. OD RE: What games have you bought recently? - ZombieChildren - 11-16-2014 10:32 PM Eldritch Horror is a more polished game than Arkham imo. The new expansion should be great, as it is bigger than the Forsaken Lore expansion already released. RE: What games have you bought recently? - BigDumbYak - 11-17-2014 04:01 PM We just bought Smash Up and Boss Monster which we're enjoying quite a bit. Also just backed Looking for Trobils on KS which looks like it could be really fun. RE: What games have you bought recently? - Raynor - 11-19-2014 04:24 PM Very nice! I love Smash Up and have tried Boss Monster once or twice before and did enjoy it. Love the art style especially. RE: What games have you bought recently? - FruitEatingBear - 02-08-2015 09:51 PM Well, I seem to have gone a little crazy. I've recently bought Legends of Andor (absolutely amazing, but until they sort out the expansions, not a great deal of replayability), Heroes of Normandie, Memoir 44, Descent and Mice & Mystics. As a mostly solo gamer, I'm wondering if I'm going to get a lot of time out of the wargames but I've never had any before. I saw Android going really cheap, but AFAIK there's just no way that plays solo. In fairness, I balanced this out by selling Cosmic Encounter (just not my type of game) with a couple of expansions, so I'm not quite in the poorhouse yet. Only a matter of time, though. RE: What games have you bought recently? - Old Dwarf - 02-09-2015 11:01 AM Legends of Andor is a really beautiful Game but it does need more expansions-which exist in German but FFG hasn't done anything to get us English versions. Cosmic Encounter is a Game I never could get into, I have one of the pre FFG versions & never got beyond reading the rules. The only things I've added since my previous posts are pre preordering Gates of Arkham the Elder Sign Expansion & picking up Banners of War the Runewars expansion. OD RE: What games have you bought recently? - FruitEatingBear - 03-07-2015 01:44 AM Latest additions: Tannhauser (I might struggle with this, as I don't have a regular 2-player opponent), Fallen, Elder Sign + Expansions (I finally caved in)..oh, and Descent is freakin awesome! RE: What games have you bought recently? - Old Dwarf - 03-07-2015 01:19 PM I did preorder the 2 Battlelore 2 Troop Expansion & the 2 Monster fig packs (Dragon & Giant) now they just came out with a Razorwing which I'll preorder as soon as CSI puts it up. I'm still looking at Wilderness Empires the French & Indian War Block Game it was a KS but should hit Retail sometime in May (probably will get but I want to see a bit more) Tannhauser- I waited for ever after I preordered ,even joined the French Fan Site as the Theme really appealed to me. I even did some homebrew expansions. Alas the Rulebook was a disaster which rather turned me off but I did get the revised Rulebook later but by then I sort of lost interest. The Pathfinder System & the fact you only have 2 boards (base game) did not work for me OD RE: What games have you bought recently? - SoCalRMD - 03-12-2015 07:48 PM I recently picked up Mansions of Madness & two of the mini expansions (I know its an older game but other then the FFG games I haven't really got my feet wet in board games). Looking at either Imperial Assault or Shadows over Camelot & pick up the painted knights from the official site. RE: What games have you bought recently? - FruitEatingBear - 03-12-2015 10:08 PM Let me know what you think of Imperial Assault. It's basically Descent re-skinned. I'd get it, but I bloody hate Star Wars. |
