Played "Chaos In The Old World". Plays very smoothly, and he components are gorgeous.

Elrohir69 I've been looking for a good 6 player+ game for when "the guys" and I get together and go to the cabin every fall. On a scale of 1-10 how difficult is it to learn Here I Stand? I'm afraid in our old age, the group tolerance for learning complicated new games has waned significantly.

One game I would HIGHLY recomend for multiplayer is JUNTA you really find out who your friends are in this classic Bannana Republic game. The winner at the end is the person with the most money in his Swiss bank account!

Haven't played Junta, but a fun up-to-five-player game on a similar subject is Avalon Hill's "Guerrilla." Especially entertaining with an odd number of players (the odd man out is a mercenary). You never know which side someone is on and even when you do, that can change with the play of a single card.
Got many "non-gamers" to play (and enjoy) this game.

Just got done with a weekend gaming binge with Gor-Gor, Timbo, Marty Snow, and myself.....among the games played:
A Few Acres of Snow
Dominion&Dominion Intrigue\Prosperity (multiple playings)
Power Grid (US, German, and France maps)
Struggle of Empires (only 4 players....6-7 players would be a serious hoot!)
LeHarve
Space Truckers
A Few Acres of Snow
Dominion&Dominion Intrigue\Prosperity (multiple playings)
Power Grid (US, German, and France maps)

Playing Breakout & Pursuit. I am posting a running AAR on CSW and Facebook.
I started a running AAR of my solitaire playing of this game over in my CSW blog. Check it out:

I will post for each turn at the end of the turn.

A new entry that is a very good , innovative, and subtle system. Unfortunately, it may be broken as there seems to be only one way for the British to win, and the French are hard-pressed to stop a competent determined British player. Still, even that is not all that obvious and I think it would not take all that much tweaking to balance it up. Only got a playing or two in due this being a 2 player game and we had 3 all of Saturday. A deck building game played on a network map.
My first time playing a strictly deck building game. Straight Dominion seemed a bit dull...."serial solitaire" was the term used. Intrigue definitely changes that and is a blast. Prosperity just adds that much depth to the selection of cards.
Pretty much a blast. We started out playing with 3, and it was pretty much fun....but we only got a hint of the subtleties of strategy. When Marty showed up on Sunday we played with 4...even more fun and some of the previous subtleties weren't quite as subtle.
A serious blast. We played with 4, but there is room for 7. I would love to play with 6-7 folks that are serious gamers....and that have histories with each other.
The old stand by. We were teaching Marty as it was his first game of LeHarve, but not his first Euro. Interesting game as no two games ever play the same way.
A hoot, ala Robo-Rally

Played three games of Arena (essentially Roma II) by Queen Games. Two of the games were great, the third one was a bit lopsided from the start. This still remains as one of the best quick playing two player games out there. There are many, many paths to victory. Not bored with it even after 20+ games. Highly recommended...

I'll second that. I'm actually pining' away for some Arena. Seems A Few Acres of Snow has monopolized the 2 player encounters lately.....not that it's a bad game, but variety being the spice and all....
Struggle of Empires.
Easily one of the best games for 6 players you'll ever find. Not too hard to learn, but how you bid on turn order and alliances is a lot of fun.

Skyrim...not proud of it but they say admitting you have the addiction is the first step to recovery...
