Our biggest mistake was not defending some areas enough and over-extending our forces in attacks. Turns mostly became a case of each of us assembling one or two concentrations of forces and claimed a lot of territory, then losing parts of it when the other player did the same thing. Long, because I’d completely forgotten all the rules and so both of us were learning. We set up RISK yesterday and ran one long game. I think she’s played Talisman with a larger group of us once before, but not the others. Sadly to say, when it’s just the two of us, she wins about 3 of 4 games! When we have played these with 3+ players, wins are more evenly distributed.įor the New Years weekend I dug up some of my older board games: RISK Lord of the Rings (2003, Trilogy addition), The Lonely Mountain (1984) and Talisman (1985, 2nd Edn). Both of these are great games where its hard to be sure of who’s winning till the end, and every game plays very differently. My wife and I spent one week playing Kingdom Builder (2011+), and another playing Alhambra (2003+). My work has only been closed on public holidays, but that’s still given me two long weekends with chances to catch up with friends and do stuff at home. Lots of writing, reading and playing board games! Not much painting over the last few weeks.
