Too late for Christmas--I guess I'll have to ask for it for my birthday.

To quote a former Pope, "peace is development". Within the mindset of the sick b* who created that "game", there is no room for development, or for "oodwill to man". Thus there can only be war and terror and who wants to "win" at that?

It's had pretty good reviews: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/24396

I own it, and I think it's great. I enjoy the theme, but there's a real game in here too. See my review of the game here: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/136800

Cool--it comes with an "evil" balaclava, something I've always wanted. The balaclava I have is made out of spandex, and therefore only slightly malevolent.

Just ordered it. It looks great, I hope it's fun, too.

A good game. I've played it several times. Haven't won yet, but other people have.

I like the random 'secret' messages. Nice touch:

Someone should hold a tournament at RSA, unless Illuminati has come back into vogue...
