Double Deuce

I just have this weird feeling they're gonna screw it up or at least try to reinvent the game to the point its no longer what it was/is.

I don't think it's at all related to Up Front...  I just wanted to watch people get their dander up in a tizzy ;D

Isn't Valley Games the company that redid Rome vs Carthage or whatever that insanely priced game was?  I believe the reprint got favorable reviews compared to the original for whatever it's worth.

Coincidentally, I just ordered Rome vs. Carthage and will be picking it up tomorrow. I can let you know what sort of quality their games seem to have.  ;D

Saw on FB... just wanted to mess with you guys :)

I checked the URL of the image and held fire pending more info. ;)

I wasn't so smart...wasted a bunch of time trawling BGG for pictures from the new release.

It's always fun to waste time on BGG mind you.

Up Front/Banzai (originals) will go on the table this weekend.  We haven't played using the Japanese before so this should be interesting...(hmmm, do I banzai charge this group now or wait??)....

I believe that I have all the variants of Up Front. A co-worker and I used to play at lunch, day after day, for several years. We were both instructors in a military technical training school, so it was actually seen as a positive by our bosses and other coworkers.

He used to HATE it when I slapped the wire card on him, just as he went into a stream! This was ... not good!
