Gotcha. It's been a favorite among some of my friends here, and games with all seasoned players are definitely faster, easier, and more fun than games with brand new players.

It's probably the single highest-intensity SWM at Gencon, so nobody wants to be exhausted during it from a late night the night before.

I looked at Warlords of Europe a year or so back at GenCon and would love to play it as well.
A few others that I threw in my bag that are card games.
-Edition Wars - Compete to have the best gaming group. Made by friends of Chris West
-Wench - basically a drinking game
-Kill the Hippies- Play Religious Fundamentalist (Fundies) trying to kill or convert hippies. Converted hippies are worth twice as much as killed hippies. The most religious person goes first.
Eclipse is fun and I have played it a couple of times, but not all the way through. Kill the Hippies sounds amazing  I really want to make it to this this year. Usually I need Wednesday night to sort of save up my energy (I tend to get overwhelmed and/or have a nervous breakdown on Wednesday, which saves me from having that happen during the Con). But hopefully I can manage to be sociable this year.

No, no, please everyone (but me) get exhausted the night before.

If not no worries, lol Meh, I wouldn't bother. The game kinda sucked. If you're gonna go that route - go the reboot 2.0 route that Eric Larson (Engineer) masterminded (with help from Jason K and Lou if I am not mistaken). Maybe some day I'll get to do one of the death star scenarios they have running. Schedule has never worked out.

I wasn't part of that project. I don't know if Lou helped or not.
As far as I know, it was pretty much all Eric.

Dungeon Command sounds interesting. I might want to try that one. Also, here is my non-SWM collection if anything jumps out at anyone: http://boardgamegeek.com/collection/user/FlyingArrow?own=1&subtype=boardgame&ff=1

I've got my games packed and here's what I've got:
--Marvel: Legendary. It looks like this one will be popular
--Super Dungeon Explore.
--Munchkin (base game and expansions #2 and #3)
--Dungeon Command. This game is pretty cool. I've found that a lot of the SWM movement and tactics still apply here. I've actually been considering making my own custom version of DC, only with Star Wars rather than the D&D minis that DC uses.
...Oh, and SWM too. Better not forget that game. :)
