Fuck, you know what I've always wanted to do? Buy a bunch of Battletech miniatures and turn them into a chessboard.
Like, tanks and apcs and such as pawns, helicopters as knights, dropships as rooks and everything else unique mechs, one side painted darklight urban and the other something like woodland.
Unfortunately I'd have to order all of them as die-cast metal at like $10-14 dollars a pop.
I mean, it would be a totally bitchin' chess set.
But it would also cost about $300 dollars and tireless manhours painting and assembling the motherfuckers.
One day I'll be a rich motherfucker and I'll do it.

Anyone remember this game?
You would run your dudes along this board:
and try to get the crystal. You could go through caves and over bridges. Then every once in a while you would get to roll a FRIGGIN FIREBALL down a path and cause death and destruction.
This is where the fireballs came from:
Greatest board game ever.

Shits goin down
i'm curious to see if it still feels the same
man I really enjoyed that game when I was a kid, although I may have only ever played it twice and enjoyed painting the pieces.
Also, a friend of mine is getting married in a few weeks, and a bunch of us are pitching in and buying him this
mother fucker loves scrabble
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

13 years is not old
If you aren't old enough to be distrusted by hippies you aren't old
Snazzy.
I'd be afraid to actually play with that set
I'd imagine that the weight of pure gold keeps the tiles firmly rooted in place.
It only takes one oaf to bump the table, and the gold scrabble is as useless as every other scrabble in the face of Travel Scrabble's clippy tiles.

My brother and I found it at the family cottage and played the hell out of it when we were young

This game ruins friendships.

EDIT: DAMN. I AM SO SLOOW. I GOT BEATED.
SE++ Map Steam
second only to pokemon monopoly
Except the new version has 1 being the Scout and like 9 being the Marshal or whatever.
I guess having the 1 be the most powerful piece on the board was just too fucking complicated for some people.
It really throws me off when I'm playing the new version.
I have yet to be beaten, every kid at school used to challenge me when I'd bring it to play at the christmas concert
I may need to buy it off e-bay and do it PBP here.
Space Crusade was better.
Space hulk was the best.
Axis and Allies.
