I tried searching for Monsterpocalypse but it is too long of a word to search for... !!!
Has anyone played it? Is the gameplay enteraining? Are the models somewhat neat?
My brother-in-law likes to game, but doesn't have the time or willpower to get into something as involved as Warmachine or Warhammer. (I did get him to say that he might play once I have two armies completely ready in either) He's played Pirates! before and enjoyed it. I thought maybe Monsterpocalypse might be fun to pick up and have something to play with him on occassion. We play a lot of other board games like Settlers, Carcassonne (sp) and Power Grid at family functions (usually my sister, bro-in-law and dad play). I have confidence in Privateer Press and I like that I can just drop a few dollars and have a fun game to play (not that expensive if purchased at dungeontrader.com).
Anyway, just wanting to hear what people think - if anyone here has played it. $40 isn't too bad for two starter kits but is enough money I don't want to spend it and then keep the game on the shelf for the rest of my life.
