Hey everyone, I was excited as anyone when FFG announced Lurker. Yet going through the forums, I am reading a lot of confusion due to some of the cards Lurker adds (mainly the pacts). I realize everyone is still learning Lurker but money is tight so I am wondering should I pick it up now or wait till my brithday or christmas to get Lurker?

There are a couple of final-battle exploits with the pacts, but during the main game they're not an issue - the Reckoning cards are tough enough to discourage too much stockpiling of power.

The gates and relationship cards are good enough on their own for this to be probably my favourite small box expansion (though Curse comes close). There's nothing in it that's so essential that it can't wait if money is tight, though.

Uh... It's about $25. If you can wait, wait, if you can't, don't. The price tag probably won't kill you. Although impatience eventually will, when you cross the street on a red traffic light. This I foresee! Beware!

Avi, you know me too well. Cim, money is super tight that I can't the $25 I was just thinking if there are a lot of issues I might want to wait. I am going to call my local game shop tomorrow and see if they finally recieved their copies. I love this game cause of the abilty to play solo or with a group and I have always loved a game involving Cthulhu.
