Hey so there's def a thread about board games already but I was hoping to gear this thread towards less common games like Settlers of Cattan, Ticket to Ride, etc. So no sorry, monopoly, risk, clue etc. I want to almost call it the european board game thread but that would confuse a lot of people and muddy the issue.
Anyone had a chance to play this

Looks pretty great but a bit more complicated. I've also thought about picking up Puerto Rico. What games do you guys like to play and what 'gateway games' do you use with friends who aren't really into the board game scene?
