Knizia's Lord of the Rings.
But that's just because it's the most expensive item on my "must buy" list.
Other items: Der Schwarze Pirat/The Black Pirate, Taj Mahal
Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries
(or)
Complete Descent Expansion Set:
Well of Darkness
Altair of Despair
Road to Legend

If you can get copies of it from Europe reasonably, I'd also vote for Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries.
BTW, so you lose money on the new release - no big surprise. But I'm curious, for most products, do you buy them then resell (thus risking a loss), or do you make deal with overstocked stores/distributors/publishers and take a share of each item you are able to get out of their warehouse?
Twilight Struggle!
That, or Descent and all expansions.
Knizia's Lord of the Rings base game, as I already picked up the expansions the last time they were on here. Power Grid and Puerto Rico would be must-buys for me as well.
As an added incentive....will the people who suggested the (winning) games be entered into a random draw for a free copy?
You guys admitted losing money, so whats a little more?
Agricola
Return of the Heroes
Race for the Galaxy
San Juan
Memoir '44
Hive
Power Grid
Hive.
Any of the Gipf series.
Crystal Caste Icehouse pieces. *grin*
Yes, I'm an abstracts fan - big whoop - wanna fight about it?

Pandemic
Mr. Jack
Last Night on Earth (and Expansion)
A Game of Thrones Boardgame (when it gets reprinted)
Kingsport Horror (when it comes out)
Not a vote--I still want Galaxy Trucker--but Mr. Jack is my favorite 2-player game.
1. Blokus
2. Twilight Struggle
3. El Grande
4. Race For The Galaxy
5. Pandemic
And when it's reprinted... Game Of Thrones (and expansions)
Thanks.

[edit]
Scratch Puerto Rico
I still want Power Grid
and I'll add 1960: The Making of a President
Posted on Thu Mar 27, 2008 06:32 PM |
Galaxy Trucker
Agricola
(can't BELIEVE no one has said trucker yet)
Anything I don't already own that I want. Hmmm... that could be quite a few.
agricola
ticket to ride card game
galaxy trucker

I just hope you get enough so that the first couple people cannot buy them all up.

Thebes
Tamsk
Kingsburg

Jamaica
As someone else had said it would be good to limit the quantity that anyone can purchase to only one.
Samurai
Battlelore
Goa
Kept some of the newer games I want, in hopes these would have a better chance of coming up.
oh, since it looks like there's a ton on games people are throwing out, any chance you could pick 10 for us to choose from, and then buy a ton of the game that gets the most votes?
Posted on Fri Mar 28, 2008 10:35 AM |
[49] sounds like a good suggestion.
In the meantime:
Thebes
Twilight Struggle
Alhambra
Samurai
Talisman
Runebound expansions
And of course, Space Hulk.
Hey, a guy can dream.
Posted on Fri Mar 28, 2008 11:14 AM |
Agricola
Carcassone big box
Settlers of Catan expansion sets
Agricola
Galaxy Trucker
Last Night On Earth
TtR: Nordic
are all good selections, and I don't own any of those four. I'm all Uberplay-ed out.
I'd love the Khet tower expansion, if it's compatible with my copy of Deflexion.
Ya know,
there's a game that my extended family has been playing for years. It's called "The Great Game of Britain" We have worn out three editions and are on the fourth.
I bought several copies, and just gave the last one to one of my brothers yesterday to take home to Houston to give to his future son-in-law. I have to order more from ENGLAND because I've never been able to find it here.
It may be that hard core gamers might find this game too tame, but our family has spent thousands of hours playing and enjoying it.
If it showed up here I would buy at least 8 more copies for gifts.

Has anyone else played Scripts & Scribes?
Itâs a small game company production, but a great game. Maybe the Tanga crew could do a deal through them?
Scripts and Scribes (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/34219)
By Steve Finn (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/designer/10060)
Anyone else think itâs a good idea?
Didn't Tanga already blow out China?
Would prolly buy multiple copies of:
Thebes
Kingsburg (again)
Race for the Galaxy
Money
Qwirkle
Posted on Sat Mar 29, 2008 04:29 PM |
Betrayal at House on the Hill (def. need another copy of this; mine's starting to get worn out)
Ticket to Ride et all
Lord of the Rings
When it gets reprinted, Acquire.
Posted on Sat Mar 29, 2008 08:23 PM |
The Great Space Race (by Kenzer & Company)
Khet (and expansions)
Kingsberg
Elfball
Manhattan
And, if possible:
Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries
Jamaica
(but you would need to get a lot of them and limit them to 1 per)
Galaxy Trucker
Guillotine
Power Grid
If the point of this is to pick something that tanga users want to purchase, I hope you will have enough for everyone - otherwise it could be very frustrating for your customers. Please limit popular titles to 1 each!
I have too many unplayed games as it is, so:
Mother
Quip It
Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries
Galaxy Trucker
Pandemic
Agricola
Fearsome Floors
Stack Market
Pizza Box Baseball
Space Dealer
Crokinole
I need to stop now
Mr. Jack packaged with Extension
Ticket to Ride (original)
Ogre (once it's released again by Steve Jackson)
Lord of the Rings Battlefields expansion
Khet + expansions
Twilight Struggle
War of the Ring + expansion
So did we ever get any results from this? It seems like I've seen a couple games listed here up in the past couple weeks, but I don't know if they "won" the voting or not (since there are a billion board games listed here!)

Let’s have a vote to see what game you want to see on Tanga. We will pick the top two requests and buy a bunch of them to offer up to you.
Just so you know, on a lot of these new-release games, we don’t make any money – in fact, after credit card processing, boxes, shipping losses (we do lose money on $5.99 shipping), we actually go backwards on some of these new releases. But we do it in order to give you all a good deal.
So tell us what you want and we’ll see what we can do!
