Maxwell Lord posted:Munchkin isn't Monopoly bad, it's just too shallow to hold up for very long. Inevitably there's a huge bottleneck at the end because everyone tries to screw the leader and can.

Rotten Cookies posted:Zombies! is indeed more fun when you play it as coop. Everyone has to get to the helipad and you can trade items. I forgot what we did with the items/screw cards. I think screw cards were played instantly If you want to play a zombie game where screwing over other people is front and center, City of Horror is such a tighter and better choice, with awesome components. If you want pure coop, Zombicide is a thing of beauty.

So, I need a good name for the Djinn mafia in my Ottoman/Persian setting.

unseenlibrarian posted:The Benevolent Order of the Smokeless Fire. They basically control the building trades (through ruthless magical undercutting), garbage disposal (through dumping into elemental planes, which they turn around and sell scavenging rights to the dumps), and shape shifting prostitution. They are tolerated by political elites because they can grant Wishes.

fosborb posted:Why not just "The Cartel" or something similar and the players discover it's run by djinns? Is it a setting where there is no value in hiding who runs it because everyone already knows? If that's the case, then, "The Djinno Family"

I was also hoping that someone who is Persian or Turkish could provide me with some kind of interesting cultural reference or catchphrase to use with naming my Djinn Mafia.

RocknRollaAyatollah posted:Don't get me wrong, I think J.J. Abrams will do a better job with Star Wars than Star Trek. Even then, all the J.J. Trek movies have been successes critically and financially. I just think it's interesting that their plan of popping out the movies quickly will put the last one out at about the time they get the rights to everything, 2020.
