Played the Firefly Board game last with some friends. Took us an hour to get through the rules but once we got started it was pretty fun. You can pick different objectives that win the game and some nice strategy involve.
Tip: don't do an illegal mission for your first job.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch..... Progress is slow but I have one shelf of some of my role playing books loaded - I figured I'd get them out and then sort them by game type later  That's FAR from everything though - many more boxes to sort through still (More than are in this picture)  |

Well, it may not be pretty but my gaming shelves are loaded  I tried to take a picture of my Lord of the Rings figures on my corner shelves, but I still have boxes in the way with more miniatures and games. The pic looked really blurry  |

The War Store has some really good prices on gaming stuff, their SW Minis are about $3 cheaper than most places I've seen, and they have good service. www.thewarstore.com/starwarsxwing.htmlThey sell board games too |

Cool, although my game store has pretty much the same prices, and its in canada which means I dont have to pay a buttload for shipping. Thanks for the info though.

Ramplate I would definitely play a round of that with you.
So I now have Superfight, Cash and Guns, Formula D and the Anniversary Edition of Ticket to Ride to my collection.

Hey I think I see that pocket protector and slide rule you're trying to hide - or are you just excited to be talking to geeks? (are you done with your Nerdgasm?)  |
