Shivers of Anticipation - What Games Are You Looking Forward To

Dune. Partly because it's awesome, partly because I want to publish my review.

My Magic: The Gathering cube: It has taken very long but my cube is starting to look great. When I do a mock up draft, I get fun, interesting decks and a few changes have pushed the cube from "obvious picks for obvious archetypes" to a more interesting kid of synergy. I think I might have it done in another month or so, I just need to filter blue, my guild section and polish down a bit.

Legend of the Five Rings LCG: I'm waiting for the Lion pack to get back into the game. Right now I have no deck, so the new pack should offer me a good excuse. It's also going to enable decks I like though there are still cards I wish didn't exist.

Vampire: The Eternal Struggle: I hven't bought into this game because I didn't have any money. But I keep thinking about it, it's just so interesting and it mixes two of my favourite genres so well that I think I should jump back into it.

Mythic Battles 1.5 has got me most excited.

I’m hoping to get a copy of Street Masters and Aftershock.

Dune, to have a prettier version of the game, with some nice functional improvements. I think I may even sell my 1979 version.

New ships for Battlestar Galactica.

New Puerto Rico.

Are they reprinting street masters or was it a limited edition Kickstarter thing?

They reprinted as part of the Aftershock KS. I believe you'll be able to get it separately from that.

Yeah, Asmodee is distributing it and it should make it to normal retail channels. Bit expensive but it's jammed with content.

As of last week it's supposedly going to be released in September.

Things I'm excited for:

1. Mezo - dudes on a map games are my favorite, and this one looks great. Hope it works out as well as Rising Sun did.
2. Food Chain Magnate expansion. The original is quickly becoming my favorite. Very excited for new benchmarks and a few new mechanics.
3. Oceans. I always wanted to love Evolution, but it felt too straightforward every time we played. Maybe Oceans adds more?
4. Black Rose Wars? This is a strong maybe. Not sure why I backed it, I already have Argent and am happy to play that every month. I'm already mentally preparing to be disappointed though. Reviews have been pretty positive but they always are initially.

Is Tainted Grail going to hit retail this year? I would be excited to get this if it hits this year.

I'm looking forward to Street Masters & Tainted Grail, though I'm also dreading them since I'm out of space and need to start another auction/shipping extravaganza before they arrive.

It looks like Abomination: The Heir of Frankenstein has been delayed but I'm really curious about that one and not too daunted by the playtime.

I was really excited for this one but the more I've seen and read about it, it looks like it is going to be outside the "weight" of what my Autistic son can handle. I would really be getting it for him because, even with the excellent Climate expansion for Evolution, I am burned out on playing Evolution. Literally every game night, my son requests it.

I am looking forward to X-wing 2.0Huge ship and epic rules/conversion kits. Epic was always my favorite way to play and I love all the changes in 2.0 so far (although I rarely get to play).

Just Dune. I don't even know the other games mentioned in this thread.

Despite my bitching and moaning about UnMatched and the DISKS, I pre-ordered a copy at my FLGS. I'm approaching it more with admiration of Mondo's aesthetic & Daviau's Epic Duels design, and far less for Restoration's business practice.

And despite my bitching and moaning about the nostalgia shotgun that is Prospero Hall, I patiently wait for a decent sale at Target for a copy of Horrified.

I'm not shivering per se, but I do look forward to more games with Dracula (I guess I have to wait for another UnMatched expansion before we see Dracula vs. Sherlock Holmes).

Yeah, I don’t feel the need to get Horrified or Villainous, but I kind of want to try them out.
