[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 4582183, member: 232"] Here is an old game from the mid eighties. I played it for the first time last night and it was surprisingly fun. The idea is that America is getting invaded by the east, west, and south by three separate groups. The invaders are not allies and though destroying America is the common goal they can and do fight each other. It is a game kind of like A&A. There are different pieces and they do different things. The invaders have a finite number of units and I like that. So, once they lose a unit it is gone and can't come back. America though gets cards that determine where and how it gets reinforcements. This turned out to be uneven. THe east invader had most of the America forces come up near him and include some bad rolls and he was getting his butt kicked. I was the south invader and few cards effected me and I was able to conquer more cities then the other two guys combined. In the last round of the invaders getting more units though the 2 cards America pulled didn't give him any new troops and that pretty much sealed it for him. Anyone else have this game gathering dust in your closet? It seems to have held up really well as far as playability. Our game took 4 hours since none of us remembered anything and what we thought we knew was mostly wrong. But I doubt our next game will last half that long. [/QUOTE]
