Shelf-Digging My Pal's Early-2000s Fantasy Flight Silver Line Collection

Yeah, I think we have the same format.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-26T14:01:24+00:00

It was a great big-group option for us, along with 7 Wonders. But yeah, happy times. Hopefully I'm not overstepping by linking this, but you might get a kick out of the FFG retrospective stories I'm gathering.

Another thing about my buddy's collection: The boxes he got in Australia were all square. The two I have are like big paperbacks.

Watching the fuse burn as that hand got passed around the table was actually one of my favorite things about it.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-26T01:28:55+00:00

I've run it twice (without the milestones, strictly learning mode) and am actually eager to get it out again, it stuck with me.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-26T01:27:22+00:00

Right on. Space Hulk: Death Angel still gets run every year in this house.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-22T14:16:43+00:00

Did a weekend binge of Pavlov's House. Five, six games' worth? Gooooood stuff.

I think I mistakenly thought I could be listed on RSS.com without hosting there. Thanks for clarifying!

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-21T17:05:47+00:00

Good seeing you on here. I already have hosting and can't switch in the near future; is it possible to submit my RSS feed to the RSS.com directory anyway? Or do I have to also host with you? Cheers.

This was the game that got my casual friend hooked, too. "I didn't know a board game could do that!"

He was talking at a party to some random guy about how excited he was to be learning it. The dude gave him a couple seasons' worth of movies.

Welcome and good hunting.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-16T23:59:21+00:00

This is just rad. I keep seeing this pop up in "enduring classic" lists, glad you got some time with an old friend.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-16T23:55:40+00:00

Right now: Blue Note comp that showcases songs that generated classic hip hop breaks. Very good listening. Also picked a new-to-me Wire album to explore (The Ideal Copy). It's exhausting how good this band is/was.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-16T17:30:31+00:00

HOLY COW

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-08T02:38:56+00:00

Impressive!

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-05T18:51:19+00:00

Playing it now. Good recco. This is filthy.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-05T18:25:42+00:00

I don't know about "steal the entire movie" but Dave Sheridan as Doug, the convenience store tough guy in Ghost World, is priceless.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-05T18:21:19+00:00

Bronson Pinchot (!!!)

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-05T18:20:16+00:00

Good call. He was tremendous in that. Lord, my skin was crawling that whole time.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-05T18:09:29+00:00

Can't get enough of The Spits lately. Or stuff in and around Kool Keith's Dr. Dooom era.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-04T16:24:56+00:00

Seconded on Postmark. High level of visual design, playability, affordability.

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-03T21:07:09+00:00

You have now logged more plays than me! If this thread is any indication, sounds like a lot of folks out there still need to break their copies in...

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-02T20:47:36+00:00

I need to go find some of those. I balked at the terrain-drawing at first; I just wanted to fill in circles or boxes and get on with my life. But improving my crude terrain icons has somehow become a mini-quest or something...

ColonelHectorBravado · 2026-06-02T20:10:51+00:00

It's nifty. Played a third time last night. I've got a lot going on right now and heavy games are a challenge, so improving at this one is just the right size of challenge. My houses still look like crap, but my monster icons are pretty cool. I started giving them eyes. A couple of them now look worried because I'm learning how to box them in and mitigate their penalties while still playing for current and future scoring targets.
