I was hoping no one would say this soo I could be the cool one, alas I fail.
Greatest game ever.

I heard they made an expansion to it but we never got it. We had some epic battles in it for sure. We would have some battles that would last like 30 minutes. That happens when you’re russia and do nothing but pump infantry into germany 50 guys at a time.

It’s more a mix between Civilization and Risk. Just be prepared…our friends bought it and we all became so addicted that we bought the players expansion pack, the Seafarers expansion pack (then the players expansion pack for that), then the Cities & Knights expansion.
They also have it available online at [games.asobrain.com](http://games.asobrain.com)

Word… We nicknamed this game “crack” is so addicting… if you play cities then you know about the rollling paper & dime bag. and the cool thing about this game is EVERY time you play its a hole new map…

Stratego (spelling maybe off) is a great game almost like chess.
I also love playing cards, senior citizen rummy is always fun.
Get two Sadoku books and both start one at the same time and see who finishes first.

I used to be the US and just build and build all my infantry. Nothing like taking 50 rolls to shoot down your 6 bombers you tried to attack with. Jerks.

> Russian roulette (Russian: русская рулетка, russkaya ruletka) is a lethal game of chance in which a player places a single round in a revolver, spins the cylinder, places the muzzle against his or her head, and pulls the trigger. "Russian" refers to the supposed country of origin, and roulette to the element of risk-taking and the spinning of the revolver's cylinder, which is reminiscent of a spinning roulette wheel.
