So we have threads here for D&D and for Warhammer/WH40K all the time, but I'm curious what other games you guys are into.
I know there were games of Apples to Apples and Munchkin at PAX, and in the last two years I've given Arkham Horror and Settlers of Catan as gifts for Secret Satans, so at the very least we can talk about those.
I'm currently playing a VOIP Shadowrun game with some other SE folks (<3 4th edition!) and I played a half-hour or so of Betrayal at the House on the Hill with Orikae and Melding at PAX.
I really got into the fourth edition rules when people were playing some online games, and would like to try them out with some people around here. Hopefully I can talk to Rank about that sometimes soon.

so now I have like a million books just sitting around and I want to play some werewolf again
also I know if I started this I'd be the most likely one to be running it, which I don't think I can do considering I've been trying to get into writing more stuff and nanowrimo is coming up
Also I keep trying to make you a hacker character but it keeps ending up almost exactly like the Hacker sample character so I think you should just use that one.
Descent Journeys in the Dark plus all expansions, Power Grid, Puerto Rico, Twilight Imperium III plus expansions, Settlers of Catan, Carcasonne and Age of Empires III are mainstays in my board gaming group.

Take a fun game like Puerto Rico, cardidize it, and bam, you've got an awesome game like San Juan.
I also enjoy Ruse and Bruise, House on Haunted Hill, or sometimes the Order of the Stick game(it takes forever).
That game is fucking awesome.

You're talking about D&D I assume?
but I just don't have a group anymore

so pumped to fight a land war in Asia as soon as that shit shows up
Apparently the rules for ship-to-ship combat rules are pretty good.
I wonder how hand-to-hand fighting is handled.
I have also started collecting vintage board games.
Right now I have Krull, Pac-man, the Inventors, Mad magazine and some others.
I made a TD for iphone and windows phone!
This is also a webcomic.

edit: goddammit Potu and Goat, stop turning every thread into the ghost of the webcomic thread.
are you a bad enough dude
check out Twilight Imperium
It's basically like a combination of Risk and Settlers of Catan set in space opera
What? How? Do you insist that the judges pick the winners objectively in some way?

Well you want the expansion + the main game so that's like $120
and it does take about 8-10 hours for a good game
Paranoia. 6-Pack rules.
naknaknaknaknak
is it through an aim chatroom or what
because I'd probably be up for that, I've just had some bad experiences with playing games using posts on forums
yesssssss
jparanoia 4 lyfe
It would probably work well for other games with a wee bit of modifying.
That shit was my gateway drug to full blown RPG's when I was like, 9.
it was pretty awesome.
my dwarf fight got burned, shot at, and sliced immediately one after the other.

The way it was explained to me after was that I was SO DEAD that not even divine intervention could bring me back.
I was used to stuff like Rifts and TMNT where you could take multiple rounds of machine gun fire.

Play-by-post never fucking works, I tried it a few times and finally realized what a waste of time it was.
it is fucking awesome.
Ventrilo, Map tools.
God no one listens to marsh.

It is expensive, takes forever, but at the end you will feel like every turn was a chapter in a big space epic opera.
