Monopoly

Re: Imperial borders

With this game being released next year I was wondering if HBG would be doing pieces for each country. I would be very interested. Thanks

I am on a quest to convert most of my “pushing plastic” games’ maps to a larger roll up format. I have been able to do that with all of my A&A games thanks to this site! Does anyone have a hi-res scan of the History of the World Map? Either the New Avalon hill version or the Z-Man Games reprint is fine.

11. Now it is the Allied turn. The same procedure is followed as before. The defending CAP fighter shoots at the incoming planes, and they get to fire back.

12. The Japanese CAP fighter misses, but the Allied planes shoot it down.

13. Both planes select the same carrier group to go after. The ships miss their AA fire, so the planes are free to attack.

14. Both planes score a hit on the carrier and it is sunk. Planes must now return home.

15. Planes on both sides must land on their carriers. The US plane lost its carrier, and so must ditch at sea (destroyed). Both sides may reshuffle the composition of their groups. At this point, the Japanese player decides if they wish to retreat, and they choose to continue the battle instead. The Allies, however, choose to retreat, The Allied ships return to port and the Japanese fleet continues on its original mission.

Lol!

I’ve played monopoly with 2 boards side by side and can’t build any hotels. You need doubles rolled to jump from board to board.

It’s a dumbed down version.  Personally, dumbed down isn’t my style.

I know this is not a board game but since the camping season has finally arrived in upstate New York (Our last frost advisory was in the middle of May and most of June and July have been our spring) I don’ t foresee myself at home much on the weekends.

My wife and I like to pick up card games for camping since they are a little easier to play in the uneven surfaces camping environments provide us with.

This year we added Monopoly Deal to the team.  Here is the basic run down:

Each player gets 5 cards to hold in his or her hand.  Each turn you can play up to 3 cards.  You have a few card types, action cards, property cards and money.

Property cards are obvious they have the name of the property on them.  When an action card is played you choose the player that has to comply.  So for example I play a rent action card the other player has to pay the rent for the property I played the card for.

Each player keeps a place for playing money cards.  This is where the rent you owe comes from.  (You are not allowed to play cards from your hand unless it is your turn.)

The goal of the game is to play 3 complete sets of properties.  Since it’s just my wife and I most of the time we play 4 or 5 sets.  The game takes about 20 minutes to play.

I like this one a lot.  If you like monopoly but like the quicker pace of Uno this is a good compromise.
