The more the merrier

When i first recieved this game it was heavier than expected, it blew my mind how much could be packed in such a massive box. The setup was alittle overwhelming and punching out everything took some time, but well worth it I had to invest in some card protectors for regular card sizes and euro style card sizes, but trust me it is well worth it as much as this thing costs. Once we went through the heavy rulebook and some gameplay on youtube we gained a easier understanding and couldn't wait for our start. Trying this game it gets you sucked in as it makes you feel you are in this fanasty world fighting the baddies. I tell you what if you what this is well worth the money just make sure you pack a lunch and have time as it takes at least 2hrs for a scenerio.

Movie Rating Watch

Genre-defining spaghetti western is an Italian-made interpretation of a quintessentially American genre, filmed in Spain and based on a Japanese movie (so stop going on about how much you hate globalisation). Taciturn stranger moseys into a divided town south of the border, decides to make some quick money by playing the two ruling gangs off against one another. Cue many trumpet solos and Clint Eastwood gunning folk down like it's going out of fashion.

Not quite up to the same standards as the film that inspired it, Yojimbo, but still a really impressive film in the way it combines Leone's visual style, Eastwood's inscrutable charisma and Morricone's operatic score. The focus is so visual that the film ends up coming across as slightly superficial and overly interested in violence and sadism, but it is still a classic of its kind and really a landmark in both US and European cinema.
