Wait the original 80 doesn't include my MnMs? Well that is disappointing, how much is the expansion?

MnMs?  I can only assume you mean Medics somehow.

But yes, you need the expansion.  Not only because it has the Brood War components but also because it greatly expands and enhances the gameplay.  It is the only time I rated an expansion higher on BGG than the base game; that's how much I think BW makes Starcraft a complete game.

The list price is $60(!) but you can get it from places like Boards and Bits for $40 +s/h

I said the EXPANSION cost $60.  The base game costs $90.  I scored a copy for 40 in a liquidation sale.

You should see Space Hulk.  The new edition retails for $120.

RR - IF... I go to Nationals, this will absolutely be in my luggage.  But the travel and financial restrictions of having a 2yo and 1yo make my attendance a dicey proposition at best.

I've seen this game a hundred times at Games by James is it as good as the pc and N64 games and is it worth the 85$?

I don't know what that has to do with the board game  :p

It's worth $85 if you love awesome strategy games and can find enough people to get some plays out of it.

I have played the starcraft boardgame and expansion many a times. I  Plus 1 everything Schaef said. Actually two years ago at Metrocon I demoed the boardgame for other people 7 times in 3 days.

The real question is, Have any of you played Twilight Imperium?
