Board game suggestions

[Routaporsas]

Easter is coming and me and my friends thought that we could get some new board game to try. There has been some talk about Mansions of Madness, but is there other board games that you folks could recommend. Firts I have a list of games we have; Arkham horror, Tannhauser, Zombies!!!, Blood Bowl team manager and King of Tokyo. The genre could be horror, scifi fantasy (high or low), medieval or something that could fit to those genres like for example superhero themed game.

I would like to have that Call of Cthulhu card game by FFG, but unfortunatelly it is only for 2 players. So the game should be somethng that could be played with 2-6 players.

Risk is a classic, but avoid the Star Wars variant - the 'order66' makes a mockery of any previous turns.

Axis&Allies is a good one. 2-5 players, simple enough to get into, tense choices when purchasing units each turn (not so much for Russia, locked by necessity into cheap troops only). The variant versions have been decent.

Zombicide is fun. Has proved a lucky thing to have backed when it was kickstarted. 2-6players as standard. Excellent collaborative experience which isn't often the case with games.

For board game reviews I believe there are web-communities that focus on that which could be useful. The geek&sundry channel on youtube has a show 'table top' where Wil Wheaton plays one with other geeky celebs which is as informative as it is funny - a nifty opportunity to see a title get played.

Shadows over Camelot is very fun. You all work together as knights of the round table to save Camelot from invasion. All the while one player could be a traitor and trying to thwart everyone else.

I once thought about Metal Gear Solid Risk, but I don't think that many would be so exited about Risk. But thanks for suggestions. Zombiecide could be fun, though we already have one zombie game, but perhaps we could have another one as well. I have heard about camelot as well. Those are worth thinking, but if anyone has suggestions, feel free to post them here.

Relic. A bonus is that is comes with some nice busts for you to paint. Yes, I bought it just for the busts...:disapointed: Or Loka which is for 4 players and is chess based, again I bought it just for the figures inside...Don't you people judge me!!!:neutral:
