I just got back from the local B&N a few minutes ago, and managed to score a copy of "Rumis" and one of "Dread Pirate", both for 50% off. The stickers on the games said 30%, but the extra came off at the register.
Dread Pirate looks like it might be fun, and it has a bunch of fiddly bits -- 100 "jewels", 50 "doubloons", four cast metal ships, a fabric map, deck of cards, carved wooden dice, etc. -- so that means it's really cool, right? (There were two copies of Dread Pirate; one said it had 45 doubloons and the other said it had 50. Wanting to be sure I got my money's worth, I opted for the one with 50.) Also, they had a stack of a half-dozen of the retro Risk -- the reprint of the 1959 original with the wooden cubes. I still have my 1968 version -- also with the cubes -- so I passed on that, but I was sorely tempted. It would sure be nice to have a new box without all the tape on the corners to hold it together...... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BGG Down" group.
