WANTED: Cosmic Encounter AH Edition
« on: November 16, 2008, 03:26:05 PM »
Hey guys, I am wondering if any of you have Cosmic Encounter by Avalon Hill, a few weeks ago I played my copy with a friend of mine on lunch at work, and he really loves it and wants his own copy, so I figured I'd tap my sources see if he can get one fairly cheap.  I think he is looking to spend nor more than $15 or $20 (he doesn't have a gaming fund like most of us, he doesn't normally grab stuff like this)

I figured I'd throw it out there, if you have it, and don't want it (getting FFG's or some such) please let me know, I'll forward you through him though once I get a confirmation.

Then again, I may just sell him mine on the cheap and get FFG's, though I am not a big fan on the loose planets, or the ships . . . but I love the new race cards.

Wasn't Mayfair the original publisher, Glenn - not AH?

No, it was Eon, however he wants the AH edition, as it is the version that he played, and it has all the neat little parts.

Just sent an email to my local gamestore. Should know in a day or so if he has one.

Now that I've gotten over that bad case of rectal/cranial inversion, I believe that I recall that Target has this game, as well as several other department stores.  I will do some research.

I just got the word from my local gamestore. He said -

Nope sorry. I do have the moons supplement for it but that's it. Fantasy Flight is reprinting the game probably early next year.  

Wish I could have had better news for you. Good luck trying to track it down.

I have the Eon version.  It's an awesome game.  A real classic.  Like Junta!
