The Thing The Boardgame : Norwegian Outpost Expansion
originally posted on miniaturemarket.com
I never thought I'd see a board game version of this prequel film. It's underated and I love it. Being able to play as these characters was really cool and the new test mechanic was sweet. Alien has more they can do as well than in base game. Would play at high player count for best experience.
