I knew someone would be along to mention the co-op filth, with no DM using a dungeoneering theme and try to compare it to Heroquest.
Descent is a tactical combat game with no exploration elements.
The others are co-op trash. Maybe beating a game mechanic is somehow fun and exciting to you I prefer a human opponent.
1. Go to: http://www.yeoldeinn.com there is a trove of homebrew content.
2. Check out Mantic's Dungeon Saga which has nice minis and the mini-less Dungeon Venture.
3. Closely scrutinize dungeon themed games which do not share Heroquests core mechanic of players vs. Zargon/Morcar (DM).
The Best part of Heroquest is the expansions. Which you should immediately discard.

You're really upset about co-op games, maybe just chill out a bit hey

>Descent: Journeys into Darkness
Absolute trash game

Dragon Strike! It was a fair primer for actual RPGs as a wee lad, and a good time to boot. But while it's a lovely game, it's likely too similar to Hero Quest for you to give much shit if you already have that as an option (wouldn't know, I've never played Hero Quest).

Co-op games are fine but they are also wildly popular to the point I think many gamers are being robbed of the highly satisfying experience of besting a human opponent. As well as missing the fun of trash talk. Also there are many games that are co-op only that would be more fun to play vs a human. Zombiecide comes to mind.

what would you recommend for non co-op (vs. DM) board games then? just to weigh my options
>>48098787
>implying heroquest isn't basically co-op
The GM makes little to decisions in the game. He's basically there to keep track of hidden information in the rulebook, which most of the 'co-op filth' just does by having the rulebook and components spaced so that the information is revealed with the exploration without needing a human tracker.

Hey retard, SDE might have a care bear mode but the default is getting your dick kicked in my the Consul, plus it has a straight PvP mode. Do you just enjoy being wrong or are you developmentally disabled?

I have the internet for being assholes to people and I can do that shit any day of the week.
It's rare that I actually get together with my buddies, we're all married and moved away. So when I actually want to get together with people I like and don't get to see too often I'd rather just play a boardgame.
