War of the Ring (Second Edition)
2012 | Adventure, Dice Game, Fantasy, Fighting, Miniatures
For me, this version is an improvement to the original. It tries to help you learn the game rather than fight you as the FFG version seemed to do at times. If you already have the FFG version, you can purchase an upgrade kit that has all of the new cards in a nice tin for about $30, and then download the new version of the rules from the Ares Games website, that might be enough for you.

REVIEW: PUERTO RICO
Well, at least on my end, being newer to the hobby, I approach Puerto Rico as a relative newbie, without the baggage of its longstanding reputation. So what did I think of this classic?

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999)
1999 | Animation, Comedy, Musical
Political and Correctness were the two words far from writers Parker & Stone when they created this feature length satirically biting look at life through the eyes of Cartman and his friends.
Cursing is the topic on the menu and Canada is to blame (isn't it always) and the profanity on show here although extreme and extended is no different to the controversial hit show of the same.
It's incredibly and consistently funny and I can see how it would appeal to some, just not this reviewer as the humour on show just was not the kind that amuses me, and differs from the, in my opinion, far superior Team America.

This is the 3rd instalment of the Magical Mystery Book Club, and it is as fantastic as the previous 2. Elizabeth has a way of writing that pulls you in from the get-go and keeps you guessing the mystery all the way through until it's solved. I can't say too much as it would give too much away but most people complain about book clubs, and say they are a bit drab, but I would love to join this one!


Well done, Elizabeth. Another fantastic story. Keep them coming.

This is the first in the series of vitality and what a first it is!


It seems like a true love story with lots of twists. I do not want to say too much as I don't want to give anything away, I was hooked when I first started reading and really didn't want to put it down. I honestly can't wait till the second instalment even though my head feels mushed right now!


There are some rather dark moments and an absolute whirlwind of emotion.


I recommend reading it. I thought it was brilliant.
