War on Terror, the Board Game
Confirming that all of my separate interests and separate blogs may need to come back together -
War on Terror - The Board Game has appeared in England to fun, success and big controversy. This satirical but truthiness game contains a few
elements homages to
Sid Meier's Civilization the Board Game and the newer
Risk's, like
2210 as well as the
Catan games. It looks very easy to convert my
SM's-CTBG to this. I mentioned my plans to convert this to a real war game
several days ago and plan to convert it to another game this coming year.
Check out all
the WoT game site and
blog -
fun times. This is jokes and satire and beer and games when nothing else seems appropriate like the
Nuclear War card game from 1965. As a play test showed at Board Game Geek -
educational and a good game too.
Link from Boing Boing.UPDATE: Some people say this is in poor taste, you're right - this war is in very bad taste. The story
made the Buzz Feed.
