Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Imagine how Hitler would feel being compared to a spray tanned car salesman.

Remember, Hitler started as a failed artist.

Shouldn't it be renamed Overt Hitler?

To be fair, the OG Hitler was also pretty open about his goals.

I had some issues with smaller group sizes. Once everyone knew how to count vote cards it became a lot more difficult to lie. Still a blast with a large group.

Are you sure you're doing it right? The game is designed that you shouldn't be able to card count with 100% certainty.

Edit: Just realised you said vote cards, not policy cards.

I’m missing my secret Trump expansion somehow.

I hope we get another.

My favorite part about the first secret Trump was most of his cabinet had already resigned or been fired by the time the cards arrived.

How many mooches did it take to deliver the cards?
