The Hardcover Pirate Borg is on Amazon for $30 right now. Very tempted.

The URL thing appears to be sort of broken.

Does anybody remember Ares magazine from the '80s? There is a pdf bundle of the entire 17 issue run now available for $4.99. Why should you care about Ares magazine? Because it was published by TSR and SPI and featured a new playable board game in every issue, complete with maps and tokens.

Wow, right when I clicked that link, there's Ragnarok. I forgot I had that game. I never even had anyone to play it with. I just thought it was cool.

I was late to the party and only bought two of the later issues of Ares back in the day. Nightmare House is an amazing looking game with a precarious game balance that usually led to one side or the other quickly gaining an unbeatable lead. A friend of mine was a big fan of Poul Anderson traded some good stuff to get issue #16 from me, so I only got to play High Crusade once. Here's a link to a cover gallery and list of included games, at uh some other site: boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/Ares_Magazine

UPDATE: DON'T buy from them, I think it's a scam, I am canceling / disputing my order. I should have checked into it more carefully with prices like that.

I bought the Ares bundle last night. I was nervous because it took 90 minutes for them to send me the link to the download, which was about 89 minutes longer than I expected. I reached out to customer support and got no response, then I posted on their Facebook ad page. Anyway, I did receive the download, it is quite complete, and includes all the full-color maps for the game maps and tokens, which is an amazing deal for $5.

The temptation to buy this and make artisanal copies of the games with wooden blocks and cubes is very strong.
