I'm a big, big nerd. I like playing strategy board games; ones that many of you may not have heard of. And I rarely have enough time to play them as often as I would like, but that doesn't mean I don't want to have the opportunity to do so eventually.
If there's a board game you like, or think I'll like, then go ahead and get it. If it can be played by 2 players, then all the better. If you can get a game and then come and play it with us, that's perfect! Some suggestions of games I don't have but want, to get you going:
Agricola (and expansions), Caylus (and the card game), Pillars of the Earth, Power Grid, Le Havre, Battlestar Galactica, Ticket To Ride: Nordic Countries, Settlers of Catan expansions (except Cities and Knights), Killer Bunnies and the Ultimate Odyssey (all decks).
For more ideas, Board Game Geek is a great site.
