Lord Soth
New ones: Balderdash, Cranium, Trival Pursuit, Beyond Balderdash, Imaginiff..., Mad Gab, LotR Risk (just got this...love it!)

Fire
soth is it anything special in rules than normal risk?

Storm AnA is a turned base war game, you have 5 countries: rusia, UK, US, Japan and Nazi Germany. who are devided into "Axis and Allies"
and they make war. the world is devided into territories like risk. Tho here you get money for each territory you conquer, not just continents (would take too long)
with that money you can build new troops

you have different kind of troops: soldiers, armour, fighter planes, bombers, submarines, transport ships, aircraft carriers and battleships. it each has its own defence and attack number. and then you do battle.

Militairy objective of the Allies is to conquer Berlin and Tokio, Militairy objective of the Axis is to conquer either Moscow and/or London or/and Washington.

it is a bit more complicated but very cool, tho pretty hard and it takes a long time

Lord Soth
Same rules, basically, it's just set in Middle-Earth. But there's some other stuff added, that I can't remember right now.....

Fire
okei I'll find a review

yerssot
hey, it's me, you'll win in two moves wink

Fire

yerssot

Storm
laughing out loud

yerssot

Storm
actually... yes laughing

yerssot
hey, can't blame you, it's a nice one wink

Fire

Storm

to get back on topic again, I like Cluedo too

yerssot

Fire

Storm
eek! I' m shocked! How can you possibly think that?

No it' s not. Asking the right questions leads to the right person. It' s fun smile

Lord Soth

Storm
Dr. Black was found dead on Saturday evening at approximately 8.45pm. The body was found at the foot of the stairs leading to the cellars, on a spot marked "X". Miss Scarlett found the body.

At the beginning of the game, a character, weapon and room card will be placed secretly into a murder envelope.

To solve the mystery you must find out:
- who committed the crime (Col. Mustard, Prof. Plum, Rev. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Miss Scarlett or Mrs. White)
- what was the weapon used (dagger, candlestick, revolver, rope, lead pining or spanner)
- in which room the crime was committed (lounge, dining room, study, ballroom, conservatory or kitchen)

(The three cards in the envelope will reveal the answers.)

You will be dealt some card. You can immediately eliminate these characters, rooms and weapons from your investigation.

During the game, you have to move from room to room to make your enquiries. Once inside a room, you have to make a "suggestion" on your turn by calling a character and a weapon into the room. You can then question your fellow players as, one by one, you ask them to reveal if they have a card that matches the room you're in or the character and weapon you' ve named in your suggestion. Your turn ends when one of these is matched by another player's card. Keep note of your findings and carry on playing.

By clever deduction, you'll eventually be ready to make an accusation. Your goal is to be the first to reveal the answer to the mystery. So the object of the game is to collect enough clues to solve the mystery.

Lord Soth
Okay, so you mean Clue when you say Cluedo. Got it

yerssot
Storm,... you typed it from the box I hope stick out tongue

Lord Soth
I might have been able to type that from memory, just b/c I remember useless stuff like that
