Yeah, it was very novel and did some new and interesting things compared to other board games of that time. Played it again for the first time in 15 years a few months back (on tabletop simulator). It holds up okish compared to modern board games, which is pretty high praise for a game designed that long ago.
If you ever stumble across the Battlestar Galactica board game in a thrift store like that, that's a lottery win. Still played even today despite being out of print for ages, and if it's mint condition with all the expansions would easily sell for €1,000+.
Nice! I'll keep my eyes open. This WoW game was actually unplayed. Everything was still in bags and cardboard flats. We thought about trying to sell it, but ultimately we really wanted to play and own it, so we kept it.
