Planes? Shit, I'm terrified to get in my car now!

Couldn't find any information about whether you get one volume (I would assume the first, but perhaps the 7th or 8th) of the instruction manual or all 18. Price seems kind of low for 400lbs of books.

This is the ultimate in fucked-up. The online game that my 'Starfleet Battles is awesome! No, you love tables! Really!' impulse has compelled me to try (on and off over the years) has now generated a boardgame...Is this purgatory? Hell? Detroit?

Looks pretty cool to me, I'd buy it if I could find it.
Though if it's like Axis & Allies, taking days to play, it won't be nothing but a pretty box in my closet.

The entry says two hours, but in my experience of boardgames and estimated playtimes, two hours is what it takes if you've already played it multiple times. So expect four. Problem then of course is that with the first play taking twice as long as advertised, you might never finish a game at all.  |

I think the first time I played the WoW boardgame with a friend it took us 6 hours.

Nope, they don't.
