Post by: Fellfrosch on November 22, 2003, 09:05:58 PM: Yeah, I probably should have posted that press release when I got it a few weeks ago, but I was lazy that day. They promised to send me a copy of the game, though, so rest assured that it will be well-played and reviewed.

Post by: Fellfrosch on November 23, 2003, 12:20:20 AM: It's not free. I have to play the game several times and then write a review about it.

Post by: Eagle Prince on December 29, 2003, 12:08:03 AM: Interesting. I think the new pieces are a cool idea. The rules I'm guessing will make it more like a Wizards game, which means it will somehow let you buy expansions and such.

Post by: GorgonlaVacaTremendo on February 04, 2004, 10:39:39 PM: You STILL have a twelve year old brain, at best. I played axis and allies once when I was, like, ten, me thinks. I don't remember much except it was really great. As for your poor reviewing life, Fellfrosch, I feel SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad. Why don't you go cry whilst playing FREE GAMES!?!

Post by: Spriggan on February 05, 2004, 09:26:22 AM: The Mr. Man dance?

I mean, besides River Dance.

Post by: Spriggan on February 05, 2004, 09:15:14 PM: well as Fell said they're not free. We have to play and review them. Which sometimes realy isn't all that fun.
