How About That

 

I just went out and picked up the Risk 2210 board game. We’ve been playing it for ages but the only people that have it are Jason & Jen and Mike. Ergo we’ve either needed to go over to that person’s place or they’ve needed to bring the game with them.

This game, at one point, was almost IMPOSSIBLE to find. So anyway, find out Toys R Us have them so off I go. It’s a smaller box than the original and doesn’t have the little compartments to put all the pieces in – this is a HUGE pain in the ass considering there are HUNDREDS of little pieces that need to be color divided. I’ll probably end up crafting some type of divider for the box to store the pieces without mixing them.

So…since it was sorta slow at work tonight and my MSN Messenger wasn’t working I figured I’d read through the rules. Now, you gotta realize, I’ve read these before a long while back and we’ve played literally HUNDREDS of times prior to this reading….so….imagine my surprise when I discover that we’ve been playing WRONG! Okay, actually, I’m not THAT surprised as we just recently discovered another mistake in the game that we had been making. This time thought it’s TWO different things we’ve been doing wrong. One of them isn’t too big of a deal but it could make a minor difference in the way we play. The other is HUGE…Man…this is gonna make the rest of the people we play with unhappy…

    Hey, just had an idea. Just use ziplocs for the men. No fiddly cardboard bits, and it won’t matter if you drop the box or turn it upside down.
