That I can remember I've played Brass, Steel Driver, Discworld (the Ankh Morpork one), Last Train to Wensleydale. Actually not that many I guess. Tinner's Trail is my favourite game of those (though I liked them all to varying degrees), and probably in my top ten games.

I thought I'd played more but just realised I had mistaken some Stefan Feld games for Wallace's, even though they're not that similar.

It's a somewhat different feel, but give London a try. I think it's a brilliant design.

His other two-player great, for me, is A Few Acres of Snow. Second edition tweaked a rule or two as someone tried to break the strategy of the first. I also have Onward to Venus and Mythotopia... but neither are easy to recommend. I'm hoping to play my new deluxe edition of Brass later this week.

First edition of A Study in Emerald is a masterpiece (but messy). I can't understand why they tore it up and knocked out that half-assed simplified second edition. Looks like a completely different game.

I'm currently trying to wind up work and get a game of Fireteam Zero on the table. Interesting WW2/horror minis game. It's bastard hard, too.

And WW2 Warfighter just hit kickstarter!
