Game Night Fun – Settlers of Catan

I played a board game with my brother, my dad and my friend Noah this afternoon.  It has been awhile since I played Settlers of Catan, but as always it is an awesome game.  You trade with the other players on your island, while competing to see who can create the largest and most succesful nation.

I also recently bought a new copy of The Great Dalmuti, a very fun card game related/based on the game Asshole, a bar card game. I am hoping we will play that soon.

I have also been designing a campaign scenario for Magic the Gathering, which combines magic duel with a risk style campaign board and abilities reminiscent of Vanguard cards.
