You can pass 'Go', but there's no guarantee you'll collect $200.

Shuuro!

There's a nice interview/demo over at Beasts of War about Alessio Cavatore's Chess Wargame, Shuuro. Essentially, it's Chess on a 12x12 board with randomly placed terrain, and a point-buy system to customize your Army. So, you could have (In the "Standard" example of Alessio) a King, two Queens, three Rooks, four Bishops, four Knights, and five Pawns. Or, you could load up with THREE queens.

It's looking pretty darn awesome. I may need to pick up a set one of these days. (Assuming, y'know, I can find it)
40K Armies Played: Space Wolves, Space Sharks, Orks, Tau, eventually CSM (MSons + Bile)
Blood Bowl: Ought'Ta WAAAGH Roughriderz (Orcs), The North Spire Wendigoes (Norse) Iron-Wrath Krakens (Chaos Dwarfs, WIP), Scarlet Fliers (Dark Elves, WIP)
Heavy Gear Blitz/Arena: Peace River Defence Force, Paxton Gears in Arena
Necromunda: MacGuffin's Marauders (Van Saar)
Malifaux:Built: C.Hoffman Boxed: Rasputina, Pertitia, some extra models for both

(I'm Mike, by the way. Easier to remember than Tokkan, probably. DEFINITELY easier to pronounce)
