Old School D&D What if you could play the original, created by college students in the snow rules? Without paying collector prices.

“Before I Kill You Mr. Bond” is a very warped game from the people at Cheapass Games. The whole premise of Cheapass Games is that you already have dice and tokens, we will provide you with rules and a board (maybe), and you supply the rest. This provides for games that are cheap to buy, easy to learn and generally fun.

“Before I Kill You Mr. Bond ” involves master spies, lairs, and super villains. To get the big points, you need to taunt the master spy. Of course taunting the spy may mean the spy wins and you do not.

“Before I Kill You Mr. Bond” is not available new under that title. That would be the game called “Our lawyers will sue you for many thousands of dollars for using the phrase Mr. Bond.” Today it is available new as James Ernest's Totally Renamed Spy Game.

With the latest Kickstarter campaign, CAG is offering some classic titles for download.

Bleeding Sherwood
It sounded interesting even with this note at the top of its page. “You’re a traveling salesman, following Robin Hood through Sherwood Forest. He gives money to the poor, and then you sell them a bunch of expensive crap they don’t need.

Bleeding Sherwood was Cheapass Games #004, and one of our earliest mistakes. While not a bad game, it can definitely fall flat on the first play-through. As a result, the game got some terrible early reviews, and never really recovered.”

Spree
You’re useless teenagers looting a shopping mall in the middle of the night. Like ya do.

Players race around LeGrand Mall throwing items into their shopping carts, then racing back to store them safely in their cars. You can carry a lot of stuff, but you risk getting shot and robbed by the other players. Or you can make lots of trips, but you risk falling behind those players who are willing to take a bigger risk.

I funded (bought, they had already reached their goal) Button Men on Kickstarter from CAG. It looked fun, easy to learn, and wasn't an arm and a leg. It arrived on January 11, 2018. It was quite a bit late, but it looks nice.

The free version includes print and cut cards. You need multi sided dice. We are going to try it out.

We played an evening of Munchkin one evening. Munchkin is from Steve Jackson Games. Take every, and I mean every bad game pun, add some rules and a die and there you have it. Played well and a lot of fun.

Car Wars is a classic from Steve Jackson Games, original copyright © 1990. It is pretty basic. Armed cars compete in various scenarios. The original game had road sections and you could try to drive from point A to point B or stop the other guy on the road. A flat out duel was also popular. Think Mad Max and James Bond.

The game is back in release! $20 gets you the whole kit. http://www.sjgames.com/car-wars/games/classic/. The rule book is also available as a free download from that page.

Car Wars Downloadable Printables! https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/82951/car-wars-double-sided-reference-sheet From Boardgamegeek. You will need a free membership.
