Favorite Board Games

Psycluded · 09-02-2003, 10:12 AM

Sometimes my eyes get tired of staring at the screen, and sometimes I'm around friends whose computer savvy ends at the "on" button. For these times, there's always old-school entertainment, such as books or movies. One of my things I do with friends is play board games from time to time.

So, what are your favorite old-school or new-school board games? Ever try any Cheapass Games (tm)?

My personal fav is "Battleship", followed closely by Steve Jackson's "Orcs At The Gates".

Monopoly is good, but it takes absolutely forever. With my friends, it turns into an exercise in endurance...
