Game?

[rbandrews]

I want to buy a board game but I can't decide. Help, friends list?

Arkham Horror maybe, or First Train to Nuremberg. Or maybe Troyes or Rune Age or Earth Reborn?

Edit: First Train to Nuremberg will be here on Friday. Trains are more fun than elder gods.

I can understand that. I feel the same way about Ender's Game. It's holy, and it hurts to see the embarrassing knockoffs. Speaker for the Dead is the only exception.

I was going to say that I've never read any of that era of writing, but that's not true; I've read the Robert Howard book you and Tucker got me last Christmas. I think Stross manages to get the same feel, if not in his Bob Howard books then definitely in this short story.

But yeah, the plush-Cthulhu-crowd is definitely not that.
