Good thing I got Middle-Earth Quest this week then, with 104 games of Arkham Horror left on the schedule and MEQ still in the early days, I'll survive until then, easy. Heck, still haven't gotten Dungeon sonrojado.gif .

I planned out a rough 128 game schedule before getting Innsmouth Horror. IH is also the big reason I don't have Dungeon. Almost the same price, but IH had tons of stuff, Dungeon, much less so (as someone else also pointed out). Arkham gets played mostly solo though.

Solo?

i don't like that. It feels so boring...

I see myself already playing talisman alone..

But if i want to try a game out, then i do it off course..

AH is a co-op, you play against the game, so to speak. Each player playing 1 investigator or soloing using 4 investigators, you're still trying to beat the game. Whereas in a non-co-op like Talisman, you're trying to beat the other players. IIRC Velhart, you have Lord of the Rings as well. I solo that also quite a bit, AH is in the same vein, game mechanics in both do the work for Sauron or the GOO.

I have only see the board and the tokens and cards etc from AH..( because my old father has it..)

But he has not read the rules yet, and there is a lot to read, so i was alsready tired because of listening.. lengua.gif

I think he must first read the whole book until we can play that game..

But because i see that many people has it in his top 5 games, then AH must be really good...

Definately has tons more to take in ruleswise than LotR. So you don't solo LotR?

well... actually no...preocupado.gif

it does not look fun to me actually..

There is a difference between talking with players what for cards they have, and if you play solo and can look at all the cards for yourself..

I have play Lotr solo 3 or 4 times. It was just to see how far i can come with how many hobbits i use, including expansions or not.. etc

But are you playing most of your time boardgames alone?

Off course, if you like it, then nothing is wrong with that;) 'but for me... it's boring..

Real-life issues (read: unemployment) make it so that I have a lot more free time on my hands than my friend.

Oke, i understand

Well, at least you can have some fun with playing boardgames or other things in life..

Work is not everything you know, but we need it to buy lots of gamesgui%C3%B1o.gif

Hi Dam,

Wellcome in the club of unemployed. I have just become one myself gui%C3%B1o.gif I would like the Frostmarch out soon so I can get a lot of time with it until I get a new job. Until then I use my time with Warhammer Fantasy and off course my kids.

Cheer

Good luck to you guys, hope you get something better than the sods and odds jobs that I'm getting right now.

And let it be a job that leave you time to keep playing board games with friendsgran_risa.gif

Cheers

I wonder if the light/dark fate rules will be coming with the Frostmarch expansion...??preocupado.gif

But i have the feeling that they will not be included in this expansion..

Wasn't it mention by John Goodenough that the next expansion was suppose to be toaderific?

I wonder where the "toad lord" fits into Frostmarch?

That was somewhere in an old post....

Cheers

Yeah, he said that indeed.

i think about spells that change you into a toad?

I think we do not see a toad lord. A toad does not fit for a snow expansion...( maybe for a forest expansion)?

Your "old" father? Did you replace him recently? lengua.gif

If this set includes the upcoming modified fate rules it will be possible to alter your opponents' dice. That would make for a lot more toads!

This rule will also increase player interaction significantly. Way to go FFG!

Yeah indeed, but maybe that this also means that you don't want to visit the enchantress anymore as long as your opponent has dark fate..
