Dust

Has anyone played the boardgame Dust?

I've seen it at the game store and it looks kinda interesting. But is it fun playwise?

Who makes it?  I hate dusting the house, so it doesn't sound like fun.   :P

Dust is made by Fantasy Flight games.  It gets generally good reviews over at boardgamegeek.com . 

I haven't played the game myself, but I think it might be pretty good.  I am a sucker for conflict sims with dice rolling and death!   

If you get a copy, let us know what you think.

I thought it was some sort of drug smuggling game...

You said it, Veez.  I deny all accusations.

It is by gaming I set my mind in motion. It is by Dust from FFG that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, stains become a warning. It is by gaming I set my mind in motion.

Fear of rolling 1's is the mind killer, the little death.  I will face my fear, I will let it flow through me and I will roll my dice..

You guys should lay off the dust.  This has become crazy talk.

Wow, a Dune reference.  Am I a nerd for catching it?

I think membership on this forum might be all the is required for Nerd-dom. 

Nice use of a classic sci-fi quote to liven up the topic. 

Now, I need to dig out my copy of Dune, as it has been decades since I last read it.

Veez's reference was more obscure so he gets max points and some karma. As for the answer to your question...

Veez Hal'dweeb  ;)  ;D
