Board games

I enjoy Twilight Imperium, just wish it didn't take 6 hours to play sometimes. I've seen Ascension, but I figure one deckbuilder at a time for me. Also forgot about Hex Hex, fun Hot Potato game with cards.

I'm down in Champaign-Urbana area. I'm sure there's a boardgames club on campus but I have no knowledge of one. I did join the local pinball league though. :awe:

pinball is the new kickball for hipsters, isn't it?

:hmm:

I used to love Battletech but never could find anyone to play with/against.

Try Diplomacy where you need to find 7 players, or a really long game like Third Reich that needs some long term commitment.

God I wish. As it is, the dozen or so of us in the league are probably the only ones that play the tables in town. The variety and quality of pinball tables has really dropped off in the ten years that I have lived around UIUC. When I moved back to the area after living abroad I found out that some jerk even bought the Medieval Madness table from the game rental company.
