I still worry about using the same designer on consecutive games. I like Joe, and I own TSPP and soon a WOZ, but I was really hoping for Nordman before he left. It would've been great if John Trudeau had been snatched up by JJP. I'm probably gonna have to wait until I see what he has in store for us before I buy another NIB. I've missed Trudeau. The Hobbit movie (Part 1) was a very dry experience for me too. Room for all of them though. Best of luck to all of them.
