It would be better with shipwrecked pirate captains in rickshaws, pulled by crew members. Dodging mortar fire on a deserted island.


Chariots  > Rickshaws .

Well yeah, I agree but I was trying to add a bit of common sense to it. Pirates in chariots on an island dodging cannon fire? WTF?

Why not make it roller skating monkeys on a roof top dodging fireballs?

Not the same at all

Do monkeys say things like "yar har har me hearties" or have parrots or.... dude it just isnt the same  I'm kind of hoping we can fit some ninjas in somewhere.

Make that the expansion set, but only if they're Ninja Monkeys (with Fezs).

With the new Zug model I thought we would see Ro Sham Bo rules coming out anytime now.  Maybe Impact could jump on that.


its Robert Smith of The Cure! Sweet!


played a great game call 6-tage rennen (6 day race) based on cycling, had some simply brilliant but simple mechanics. worth looking up, as it was released in 1986 and is probably OOP.

OK, during the week Impact! agreed to purchase the rights to an other Fantasy Sports game which we had already collaborated on and we have a sculptor working on two teams which might be in the store before the end of the year.. the game itself may be available at GenCon...

and it's not one of the sports listed above..

I'm a tad disappointed that there were no options for Fantasy Golf or Cricket in the Poll
