Star Conquest

I don’t plan to buy the expansion (and I’m an expansion whore, so this is a big deal).

I like the new ships, but I really dislike the cinematic combat (and I really liked the interaction between dice and tactic cards in the original system).

I do like the new ships and green dice, but the leaders - while I don’t dislike them - only serve to dilute our chances of recruiting each of the classic characters which I like a lot more.

I haven’t played Star Trek Risk (I’m a Risk 2210 fan), but Star Trek Ascendancy is an instant classic in my opinion.  It makes my all time top 7, and I recommend it if you like multi-player empire building games and you don’t mind the science fiction.

ha sorry.

I know I’m a little late here, but here is the “Official” game video about Star Wars Rebellion

Played it once, 2 vs. 2.  I was on the Republic side and saw that we basically needed to rush to do damage and hopefully minimize Palpatine’s revolution.  We had some terrible rolls whereas the other team had great ones.  It was basically a few turns of us not making any progress, then Order 66 was called and it was essentially over.  There are some specific rules for the game and it’s different than regular Risk, so I think it’s neat, just need to play it a few more times.

The design of the Cheap Air Max 2012 has drawn on the design concept of the classic sports shoes. Nike Sportswear combined the latest technology and then spread the original design to various areas.The new air bag of Women Air Max 2011 was very large that even access to the side of the shoes so that the designers had removed the parts of midsole to make an exposed cushion.

  I have several copies of CotE. I got them to play miniatures with. Painted up and all the figures and paced them on multiple stands as cohorts.
The game was lacking special events, so we made up some cards. Gothic invasion- retreat all army units from Gaul, Vesuvius erupts- lose 1/2 units in southern Italy, Plauge in Athens- troops in Greece are decimated- lose 1/2 your force there. There were good cards too, like, Good harvest-gain 5 gold! Deplomacy- no one can attack you this turn, as long as you don’t attack anyone else.
It really livened up the game and cold put the brakes on someones steam-roller invasions. I liked it alot myself. I am tempted to get the newer version soon.
Played FA back in the 80s’ too, but didn’t like it as much as AA.
Shogun is a great multiplayer game due to the deplomacy. Had to paint those armies too.
Also had that Bucaneer game for awhile. Couldn’t get anyone to play it though, so I traded it for another CotE game, More cohorts!

I think Julius Ceasar said it best; “Now were in for it!”

I’ve got shogun but only just started playing it, lots of fun! Diplomacy is fun, and best when played with lots of players and lots of rooms to slink back to and negotiate. It’s been years since I played, we used to have a box to put your written moves down for each turn, of course nothing prevents you from showing your “allies” you move, stick it in the box, then slip in a new set of orders with “Supercedes previous orders”, backstarbbing is the name of the game…. :-)

Anybody here of a game called Nuke-war? A card game. What about a board game called apocalypse? Map of europe and north africa, 1 kind of piece, chains of various valued territries to get more men (2 green territories=1 man, 3 yellow=1, 4 tan=1 or 8 white=1). Combat was simple, you pick a # on a dice and so does the enemy. If the # is the same, you lose that # of men, if not, you win, he loses a unit and you get 1 stage to a new nuke missle or start a new missle with that stage. If the enemy is wiped out, you move that # of men in…
