Chess board scenario

As far as being good, I liked it, but I like OV beer so……  Battles had no chance component, but trade cards could introduce some nasty events that can set you back.  Diplomacy and trading were how you won for the most part.  Optimizing your country for the geography and national goals were what I liked best.  But I am an optimization junkie.

Yeah, I have an account, but haven’t been on in a while.

I’ve just joined a Go club, and I’ve pretty much converted.  Chess is still awesome, but Go is better.

Anyone interested in kicking some tires via PBEM or PBF?

Wait did Avalon Hill get into the soap business? I have soaps like those in my bathroom. They smell good too.

The ones we’re not supposed to ever touch?  Along with the towels we’re not supposed to use to dry our hands?

Hey Djensen, checked back in and noticed this… I use BGG to decide what games I should purchase on my limited gaming budget. The thing that makes the site is the people who contribute loads of feedback on games and what you will enjoy based on your preferences, but like Yanny said, it is one clunky place to navigate. I particularly don’t like the geeklist navigation where it always jumps you back to page top…

That’s my 2 cents…

If you want a good Vietnam board game, try out Vietnam 1965-1975.

It is a hex based game, using counters for playing pieces. The game is from the 80’s and you’ll find it on Ebay.

For sure, no game depicts the vietnam war better - with hidden units, ho chi minh infiltration routes.

Beware though, that the Grand Campaign 65-75 takes hundreds and hundreds of hours to play. However, there exist about a dozen smaller scenarios (like the Tet offensive amongst others).

I must admit, i prefer Go, even though i am not good at it at all. I once got beaten on a 9x9 field with four stones given to me in front. Even though it was close, it was a lesson.
