Full confession: I killed Professor Brainpaint in the brothel with a marital aid.

Stratego was always a winner in my book.

Of course, we can never forget Chess.

The flag placement and protection for the Blue Flag here is atrocious.

He wouldn't have a chance against me!

A great game for the family if you have kids is Apples to Apples.

I am like Yeag, no one liked playing TP with me because my head is filled with useless crap as most of you know.

For me it was I had played it enough to know the answers to the questions in the game. If you broke out a different version I wasn't as good.

True story....the first time we ever played I won on the question "Who were Donald Ducks nephews?" :laugh2:

I got scrabble first, risk a close second.

Monopoly Deal!

Also like cribbage and scattegories.

Cranium is by far my favorite board game of all time. We play every Thanksgiving when the family all gets together. Which means that time is coming, better start brushing up on my acting, singing, sculpting and drawing skills!

The electronic version of Monopoly. It makes the game so much quicker. My families favorite game however is Beyond Balderdash. I always get a kick out of it.

I have some friends who run a game store, and apparantly the board game business is booming. Lots of interesting games, and good sales. Seems there has been a renaissance of game design in the last decade or so.

My favorites would be: Tales of the Arabian Nights, and Arkham Horror. For family entertainment, maybe also Settlers of Catan.

Only board game I've played recently.

I could swear that we've had this topic before,but some time back. Risk was always fun,but before that were any number of games put out by Avalon Hill, such as "Tactics 2", "Stalingrad","Panzer Blitz", and "Gettysburg",just to name a few we used to play. More challenging than "Risk".

As a kid, I loved Sorry.

 

[SaltwaterServr]

Loved Axis and Allies as a kid. Battleship, the electronic version as well.

For years I wanted that really nice wood cabinetry version of Monopoly. I still might get it one of these days if I ever got the notion while I was on Ebay.

Edit: Found it on Ebay. A bit more than I intend to spend at this time...

I was the undisputed STRATEGO champion of my school and neighborhood. I still remember my starting arraingement.

 

[WarC]

Oh yeah! I love Risk. The best thing about it is getting a few players involved and having a game that takes a few days to play out, so you have to leave all the pieces set out on the table overnight. Awesome stuff. Risk is a game I'll always love and play.
