Has anyone here played the card game? I've seen it mentioned in several forums as being quite fun. You can play solo which is very cool. I think I'm going to get it just for the novelty of having something that geeky in my apartment, and playing of course.

Edit: Just ordered the card game, then browsed through all the other similar games on Amazon. I didn't realize there were so many interesting card and board games out there.

Looks like lots of issues, probably not worth 30 bucks. But if the game goes on a crazy sale, who know.

The price keeps me away. 12 missions, no map generator etc would be what it needed for me to consider it. Especially when Alien Assault is free and AA2 is being developed which sounds superb so far. You can have a say in development over at their forums.

I can come up with precisely ONE technical issue that I have a problem with. Everything else is the game and the dice hating me.
