KEK. They try so hard.
>Anyone heard of this card game?
Steve Jackson makes good stuff. Big fan of his Triplanetary, Ogre, and Proteus games. Never played his Illuminati game though.
Funny story about the guy who made that Illuminati card game:

Amazing how he went from unremarkable sidekick to center stage star after his best friend was murdered in a drive-by.
>Car Wars, about battle on the highways;
8bit and 16bit computer users got the video game version of that from '85 to '87. Played the shit out of that on an 800XL at 12-years-old.
All this mention of board, dice, and card games makes me realize I need to track down a copy of Avalon Hill's Starship Troopers board game. It's been out of print for over 40 years though so getting my hands on one in decent shape with all the pieces intact might prove a challenge.
With what seems to be a knife hole in the box between the S and T of Starship, I can't say that falls in the "one in decent shape" category. The price is right though.
Yeah, just looking at them now. One or two seem like potential purchases though, meeting the "one in decent shape" that I'm happy with.
Adorable.
