Any Board Game Geeks?

[Coheed]

Sup guys. Last weekend I went up to Digital Sushi to pick up my new Agricola board game. Following a giddy unwrapping phase and many hours of learning the rules, it hit me: I've become a board game geek. My cupboard is slowly developing into a box library of Spiel De Jahres nominees and old classics. At this rate, my new found love may even eclipse my PC gaming habit!

Anyone else on the forums here that also share a soft spot for the good ol' cardboard variant of our favourite pastime? Hey, let's not be too fussy here; cards, dice, role-playing...anything goes.
Hands up! Whatcha got?

I seem to be giving out this advice alot, Search before you post.

There are a few threads on this topic in Off Topic (where this thread belongs). Resurrecting one of those threads if its relevant would not get you crucified.

Starting new threads on interesting topics also shouldn't get you crucified. This is a discussion forum after all. People are welcome to start discussions, and it may even draw in new people who missed out on the earlier discussions.

Update: Unapproved posts in the interest of not derailing a thread before it has begun.

Thanks for stepping in there James, and @OmegaFenix, no need to be snarky boet, just chill. You could've PM'd me instead.
I wanted to start a new thread, since it has a story attached to it which might generate an interesting discussion.

I am usually a pretty big asshole so I will clear this up.

This is me being snarky:

What is this... a thread that already discusses the subject? It can't be.

BUT IT IS!!!!



Who could have invisioned that a simple forum search could yield such mind blowing results.



Well consider my mind blow.

My post in this thread was intended to be helpful.

Been playing a lot of Settlers of Catan and some Game of Thrones (that board game might be fun, but you'll definitely have a headache from all the thinking 0_0)

Sweet! I also have SOC; was my first dip into Euro games.

I think I read a good review on the GOT game. I find that I've started liking more complex games over time, so I'm not really intimidated by Fantasy Flight games which tend to be on that side of the scale. Would you recommend it?
My current collection includes Agricola, Dominion, Dixit, Pandemic, Settlers of Catan, and 7 Wonders. Might be missing one.
The rest aren't worth mentioning, *cough* Monopoly *cough*.

I can't decide between Discworld or Munchkin

No mention of good ol' Risk. Loved it.
