1066 update

England got a bum deal in the first attempt of 1066. This should now be better balanced with a new SC in Norfolk (formerly East Anglia on the board) & a new sea territory, Central North Sea. Enjoy!

Best Empire in History?

This ought to hopefully provoke some lively discussion here. Which empire, do you feel, was the best in human history? I personally like the Mongol Empire the best, especially under the first few khans. It just seems like a very progressive system in a lot of ways. There were a lot of crap things, too, but every empire has such things. I feel they were able to take the best from a lot of systems and synthesize a new whole, and that's pretty rare in history.

Sorry another support move question

If I have three units and an opponent also has three units, and I assume he is going to support move next turn to one of my SCs, but I'm not sure which one, would I be covered if I just attack all 3 of his units? That way none of his support moves could work, right?

Favorite Party Game?

Just got Pictionary for Christmas, and I've had my eye on Cards Against Humanity, so I was wondering what you guys usually play with people (besides Diplomacy, of course) when you've got a good group.

Mertvaya Ruka (1468 )
31 Dec 12 UTC

I also really love Fictionary, where people get a word and have to invent a definition for it, and then others guess which one is the actual definition. I usually end up being the person who gives words to others, though, because I keep track of a lot of weird words that I really like.

Poker with the guys, Charades and Scrabble with the family.

I've only played Cards Against Humanity once with about 6 friends who are all about the same age (14, 15,16), and I can tell you it may be the most fun game I have ever played. Just a note though, I'm not sure how the humor would work on age/gender groups besides my own.

Depending on your group size and interest in learning potentially complicated and long board games, there are tons to choose from. Personally, I enjoy Euro board games with my friends. A favorite of mine is BANG! Lots of rules and complicated when you start off, but its a blast to play. If you are looking for milder games, some I can think of off the top of my head would be Cards Against Humanity, Balderdash (or Fictionary as Mertvaya Ruka called it), and Train of Thought.

For a big group or people nothing compares to a game of TABOO, as simple as 1-2-3 but looots of fun. we always make 2 teams to make it easier and fast.
Now for a 5-8 people I would strongly recommend DIXIT.
Hands down the two best buys I made and they never get old (compared to other games who have specific needs, people, time, age)

Alcuin (1454 )

Ticket to Ride, Talisman, Carcasonne - and if your party is going to last for days, Blood Royale (An awesome game where you chart the fates of dynasties in England, France, Germany, Spain and Italy over generations. Unfortunately, the shortest game I've ever played was 26 hours.

what's going on if has happened in sequence:
- someone went in CD, and, as usual, I receive a notification
- the country is taken over (apparently for free cause the pot didn't change)
- there's no global chat notification from Gamemaster stating: "Someone has taken over Austria replacing someone else. Reconsider your alliances."

World Treaties Game

I'm not sure if this has been done before, and yes, there are several potential problems, but I would like to play a Treaties game on the world map. It may be difficult to gather enough people, but I think that if we put together a concise version of the rules, we can get everyone to understand exactly how this will work.

Vassal States
