...I thought to share the bestest new collectible tactical game for the Summer season:

You're welcome.
I hope the reason for this, is that you were just unable to frame the Jagdpanthers that are coming to grind those abominations into a fine blue paste.
Ohhh, I dunno - looks kinda cute.
BLUE. COMMIE. NIGHTMARES.
So, you've stopped taking the medication then, B-C?
I feel almost -- I stress almost -- as if I'm being unkind because the people running this were also running a Pixie Hollow game and they were as into this particular game as any MechWarrior or Mage Knight player ever was. They had bins full of the little blue bastards -- sorted alphabetically I think -- and an fairly elaborate set of rules for the fight.
That looks smurfin' smurf!
My Mrs collects smurfs, this maybe my gateway game to get her wargaming.

That depends on the Throatwarbler Mangrove, innit mate?
Yes, well.
We know what to get you for Christmas - a double lobotomy and 9 rolls of rubber wallpaper.................
That one little bastard has claws and a scorpion tail. He looks pretty serious if you ask me. Likely give Martok the jimmies.
This is more...wholesome...than some of the guys that were playing My 'Lil Pony stuff a couple of years ago...
Needs moar flamethrowers/fireballs.
Also: Why are the black smurfs portrayed so badly? One looks like he has severe brain damage, and the other has a scorpion tail and claws. Smurf bigotry in gaming! Black RAAAGE!

If you actually persuade her to weaponize her blue commie smurfs, then we want to hear about it. :crazy2:
Please tell me that you guys came up with a quick tactical ruleset and enacted a smurf war.
Smurfs have artillery?!? No wonder HQ lost all contact with that aufklärungs unit they sent in to scope out the valley

I wish you'd told me about them - my daughter would've gone gaga for that one :)
The rules for the Smurf War were actually pretty good if cookie-cutter square-based tactical combat. As I said, these folks are into this for reasons I leave to them with all my blessings.
Re: the fairy game, I bless all those people who provide fun, interactive games for all those kids. I had an experience just recently where, for the first time, it was made politely clear my son was not welcome. I absolutely get where the folks were coming from, but I am very surprised by how bothered by it I am. While trying to steer well wide of the charge of sexism that might visit me were I to be over-broad here, it was striking that the game was much more narrative and RPG-like than similar "cartoon" tactical games I've seen played by boys. Great stuff in either event.
Best,
