The Tao of Gaming

OK, one thing


I've started to put together a quasi-hypothetical "Stuff to buy" list. It's been about a year (or more) since I placed an order of more than 1 game. (I only got BSG, the Race Expansions, and Le Havre since last summer, I think). Right now games that intrigue me enough to be on the list are:

  • Shadow Hunters (probably a noble failure)
  • Snow Tails
  • Say Anything
  • Dominion + Intrigue
  • FITS
  • Automobile (makes me nervous, though).
  • Masters of Venice (again, nervous)
I keep getting the feeling I'm forgetting something. I could see putting powerboats on the list. Maybe Uruk (if it's available) or even Tales of the Arabian Nights, although I suspect someone else locally will get that.

So, open thread — what belongs on a new order?

Update: Answering comments --

  • Endeavour does look intriguing. I had already put that on my watchlist ...
  • Tinner's Trail and Founding Fathers not so much
  • Don't care enough about Pandemic.
  • Alea iacta est — never heard of it, must investigate further.
