I guess it's an Alien themed day!
I recently played Alien Frontiers and really enjoyed it. I've been hot on it's trail ever since. Yesterday I received a lovely package in the mail containing the entire set, even including the pink and grey European promo player pieces (dice, colony markers, and scoring rockets). I'm very pleased and can't wait to play it. I just hope it finds the table!
If you've never played it, it's a worker placement game where the workers are dice. If you've ever played Euphoria (though you're probably more likely to have played AF), it has many similarities. I prefer a medieval/fantasy theme to space, but it works really well. Several people have said I should try Kingsburg and I hope to do try that soon as well. The expansions seem to be very well done and I think I'd probably consider the Factions expansion a necessary one. I've yet to try The Outer Belt. Who else enjoys this game?
