Just curious to see what everyone has added to their collections lately. I just picked up a copy of Ambush! on E-bay for $38 unpunched/unused, also picked up a copy of RAF solitaire for $11. Also have a copy of Beyond Valor 3rd Ed. INCOMING! for $105 from MMP :( I've been keeping an eye out for a copy of ASLRB 2nd Ed. as well. Enough about me, what have you been up to?
I ordered two sourcebooks for Savage Worlds by Pinnacle Games. One is "Tour of Darkness" which is a "weird war" genre miniatures/RPG game set in Viet Nam. The other, "Deadlands: Reloaded," is similar genre, but set in the Wild West.
My game group does a "secret Santa" thing each year and we haven't traded gifts yet, but there are several Khyper Pass Games on my wish list.
Finally, I replaced my copy Battlelore that I gave to my nephew in May.
Other than that, I am supposed to be on a zero dollar budget for the year, but it doesn't seem to be working out that way for some reason.....
DG's remake of 'War Between the States' - as soon as TSS2 gets done (prob in late April) this will hit the 'big' table.
AH's Breakout Normandy and its kin, MMP's Monty's Gamble
Flat Top - been looking for a new copy for 3 years now, and Matt Severns hooked me up with a minty one - thanks for all those trades, Matt!
Buys (via CSW)
Wellington and Kutuzov - The TNW related CDG games are multiplayer goodness. since 3-5 of us is the norm, they fit well.
Leuthen - the Battles of the Age of Reason series is top notch consim material.
St. Lo by West End Games - got a good deal on that.
Blue Vs. Grey and DG's Battle Cry of Freedom. BvG is real gem. Got BoF with it as bundled deal.
That's a lot of stuff, but the prices and games offered on CSW Marketplace have been juicy the past 3 months.
Matrix computer version "Empires In Arms" I'm thinking this goes down as 70 bucks misspent.
Firefight games " Three Russian civil war battles Bundel offered last week. Mildly disappointed in only one of the three cases did the map and counters come close to looking as nice as the pictures on their site. Busy this week so it will be a while before the counters get mounted and I give 'em a spin. Big plus the rules look short.
Lately though most of my money is going into Lumber and Hardware. If lucky that changes by this time next year.
You have to be an absolute piece of crap, with no respect for history or decency, to pull off this crime:

The Steelers used an onside kick today, and almost snatched defeat from the jaws of mediocrity too. It's a big reason why Roethlisberger could throw for 500 yards and still need the last play of the game to win, by one point.
Hold the line by Worthington games. A GREAT simple revolutionary war game, similar to Command and Colors, but uses Action Points instead of cards. You can move any unit you want with your points. (Similar to Conflict of heroes)
