thebitterguyMan, I have got to get me one of these for the next board game day: War on Terror: the Boardgame.
It's got suicide bombers, political kidnaps and intercontinental war. It's got filthy propaganda, rampant paranoia and secret treaties and the Axis of Evil is a spinner in the middle of the board. You can fight terrorism, you can fund terrorism, you can even be the terrorists. The only thing that matters is global domination - err, liberation
Of course, just like WizKids, they fuck you on shipping. It's five pounds to the US, but 14 to Canada. Maaaaaan.
As long as no one's selling a LARP, I guess we're okay.
Have there been any GOOD WoT RPG games or supplements? Since Top Secret: SI's Commando supplement, at least.

Yes, I wish I had had it notorized.
As for a WoT RPG ... I'd tried to produce one a few years ago, but my authors missed their deadlines and we made Albedo instead.
