I read the rules when they popped up and was initially bored but the card ("damage") assignment interested me. I plan to pick it up at my FLGS since $10 is worth a shot anywhere. Anyone picked it up yet?

I bought it a couple of days ago and played it with my wife and mother-in-law. They picked up on it quickly and I enjoyed it. To me, worth $10.00.

"Men of the West!

 A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends & break all bonds of fellowship; but it is not this day.

An hour of woe, shattered shields, when the Age of Men comes crashing down; but it is not this day. This day we fight!"

I got it for my daughter and me for Christmas.  It is a fun, easy play yet has all the cool stuff associated with fantasy games: great artwork, epic and beloved characters, etc.  The rules for 2 players are a little different that the 3-5 player rules and sort of limits the fun of the game in my opinion. So we are thinking of trying 3-person play even with just two of us. The good side simply controls both Thorn and Bilbo as separate players would.  My daughter is only 9 so I'll let you know how it goes.
