I've really been enjoying What a Cowboy as a party game. Everyone has seen a Western` and pretty implicitly understands what someone would do in a (hollywood) western shootout, and giving each player a cowboy or two and just flinging their minis onto a western map normally leads to stupid outcomes. The last time I ran it, for about 6 people, there was a "sharpshooter" with a winchester who exclusively missed and shot civilians, a player who continually ran up behind people before realising he had no bullets in his gun, and "The Blind gulch kid", a mini who almost NEVER spotted anyone, but when he did he pretty consistantly blew a limb off of them. You can teach the basic ruleset in about 5 minutes, maybe 10 if you explain all the different BONANZA uses and use civilians, and then away you go.
