I appreciate the honest review! I've been interested in this one but it was a bit too expensive; its probably a good thing I've held off. What are your favorite deck-builders?

Thanks Nick,
So far (in no particular order), my favs are :
Shadowrun : Crossfire (when paired with High Calibur Ops expansion) (Prime Runner edition isn’t quite as good since it watered down the difficulty a bit)
Clank!
Clank! In Space
Mage Knight
Dark Gothic and Dark Gothic : Colonial Horror
Tainted Grail? (Not sure if this can be called a pure deck builder, though sometimes it feels like it, but not always)
I have Draconis Invasion , Ignite! and Etherfields set in my review calendar when I get time, so will hopefully have impressions for those soon, Draconis Invasion should be ready for review by next month. I am hoping that one eliminates my problems with TQ, but I am honestly not sure it can beat the odds, as it does seem eerily similar...but thankfully looks a lot shorter to play and setup at least , Will keep ya posted.

Nice! Clank! is is fun although I don't have a copy myself yet. I've not heard much about Shadowrun: Crossfire, I'll have to look into it.

Try to get the older version with the sprawl ops expansion if you can, the prime runner made some changes that watered-it down
the game can be difficult to “win” but that’s what we love about it, and probably why it is not rated higher on BGG , if you can get over the mentality that you need to win every time and just have fun the game is great, it’s exclusively a coop game, and you really nee$ to focus on just plain staying alive more than winning sometimes

I had Clank on the table for a week way back when, but wife said Play it or put back in the box (Like she does with most games)
