Willow ,'The Killer In Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Popping out of lurker mode to say hi, can anyone help with a puzzle? Games Magazine has a puzzle where you ID the pieces from 15 different games - the picture include something with a very familiar-looking "B". Anyone know the Buffy-verse board games well enough to help?
Actually, I'm nowhere with this puzzle, so while you're at it, can you help with any of the other 13 pieces? (The chess piece I got.)
Definitely.
That is working out pretty well so far. msbelle, come visit.
send me a ticket sweetcakes and I'm all yours.
Shari - that looks like the Buffy B, but I haven'y played the game.
Hi, Shari! The piece in the front center is from Shogi, a.k.a. Japanese Chess. (I think it's a knight).
I don't recognize any of those game pieces. Except chess. The bunny one is cute, though.
The front left piece looks to be from Acquire: [link]
The BUffy Board Game piece is the piece you use to count off days between full moons. I don't know what it's called, but you roll a particular die to find out whether it advances, and it's important, because Oz loses all his accumulated stuff (but becomes a badass) when the moon goes full.
Nutty beat me to it. I'll just add that it's pewter.
The 10-H piece is a hotel chain piece from Acquire.
Shari (or anyone else), if you're interested in "cheating," I just googled my way into another discussion of the contest: [link]
I knew people here could help. Ah, so many games, absolutely zero time. My games these days are mostly "rock, papers, scissors" with a 5-year old and "where'd you put my cellphone, darling?" with a 3-year old... Thanks, folks.
