It’s based on Robert Heinlein books and 50’s sci-fi stuff
Fortress America, Conquest Of The Empire, and Shogun

is that IMP WW1 game done yet? or has it been done? do any of you know where you could buy it if it is out? i saw this 1 pic of it and it looks pretty fun.
yanny, have you played any of the expansions for settlers? i have the seafarers one, and that adds a new twist of islands that you can build boats to get to.
-
I have played Fortress America and Conquest Of The Empire both…but not for years. I own them but just haven’t really been into them for a long time.
-
I have played Seafarers, once. I love the Gold Mines.
I also own Starship of Catan, though I haven’t played it yet.
-
i heard from somebody that starship wasn’t as good as the original or seafarers, but i really don’t know b/c i’ve never played it
-
Its a lot different. Hard to explain.
-
I have played Seafarers, once. I love the Gold Mines.
I love Seafarers. The problem is that it’s too short and a tad expensive. :cry:
-
I like the card game for Catan though. So, even i haven’t played the expansion to the board that would translate into “Cities and Knights”, i still think i’d enjoy that one a lot.
-
cities and knights is okay, but i prefer the original and seafarers. cities and knights changes around some of the basic rules which made the original and seafarers so good. have you played the expansion thing for up to 6 people? does that change the rules around or anything, or does it just give you more spaces and more pieces? i wouldn’t spend any money on that, b/c when i play settlers w/ more than 4 people, we just put like 2 people on 1 or 2 of the teams.
-
Get the Original, sit 4 friends around a table, and play for 10 hours straight. Thats my idea of a good night of Settlers.

I’ve got shogun but only just started playing it, lots of fun! Diplomacy is fun, and best when played with lots of players and lots of rooms to slink back to and negotiate. It’s been years since I played, we used to have a box to put your written moves down for each turn, of course nothing prevents you from showing your “allies” you move, stick it in the box, then slip in a new set of orders with “Supercedes previous orders”, backstarbbing is the name of the game…. :-)
Anybody here of a game called Nuke-war? A card game. What about a board game called apocalypse? Map of europe and north africa, 1 kind of piece, chains of various valued territries to get more men (2 green territories=1 man, 3 yellow=1, 4 tan=1 or 8 white=1). Combat was simple, you pick a # on a dice and so does the enemy. If the # is the same, you lose that # of men, if not, you win, he loses a unit and you get 1 stage to a new nuke missle or start a new missle with that stage. If the enemy is wiped out, you move that # of men in…
