While their board game market certainly has revitalized the chaundra (sp?) their designs totally suck a dirty ass.
They are the ultimate thing I hate. Their are some consistant themes. Very little competition, no attacking, almost multi-player solo games.
The last one was my last straw.
"Space Pirates"- Basically an econ game that if you try to play as a Pirate with combat assures you will lose the game. The days of screwing over Dophuz with in the first 3 turns of the game are over. Hence they are not designs I would play.
It is come to the point where we change the rules in the first 15 minutes of play time just to enjoy a purchase.
Their board games suffer from a severe lack of play testing. Essentially they are all Brittney Spears. They look good, have bad rules, then eventually crash and burn after you have played them more then 3 times.
