There isnt much else that GMT has that I'm interested in, right now, even at that wonderful 50% off sale they have going.

Ivanhoe works very well multi-player, but IMO there isn't much "substance" to
it.  The medieval theme is purely arbitrary window-dressing; it's a card game
and nothing more.  A pleasant diversion, something you might pull out if
there's a few of you with an hour or two to kill; very family-friendly.
