Basically never... yet. But after I move probably.

No one to play with here, plus the people I live with cover every horizontal surface with everything they can get their hands on so there's basically no room.
move here to south florida...ill play with you...lol

Heh. My family had this problem when I was growing up. I called it "horizontalisis": the compulsion to cover every horizontal surface available with junk to the point they are no longer functional. We got better after we started making fun of ourselves for doing it.
Sadly, that hasn't worked here. People keep doing it.

I might see about reclaiming the dining room table soon.

I used to live in Orlando. Was a pretty nice place. Except the drivers hated pedestrians and bicyclists.

If you can find an opponent with the time you can meet online at SFBOL and play.

I really like how modifiable this game is. We just played a modified version of the stasis box scenario. Since there are rules for sensors and probes, we decided that each upside down token could be scanned (or probed), and it required 20 Lab points to flip the token and see if it was the stasis box.

Played the scenario with a Klingon D7, Lyran Tiger, and Kzinti CA. The Kzinti found the stasis box, put up a drone wall, and ran off the map, winning with no damage to any ships. It was really fun though.
