we break out the 'risk' this time of year. the key is north america and europe. if you have all/most of those two continents, the world is yours for the taking.

dominos - count the bones, and stay out of the boneyard.
gin - count the cards.
hearts - count the cards.
euchre - get a good partner.
Man Nords ... I forgot about Risk. Guess I'll have to break it out soon. Nothing like day-long game of world domination with some friends and a case (or more) of good brew.

Euchre ... does anyone from outside the midwest know of this one? Just curious. Ever play bid eucre? Closer to Spades in the sense that you have to bid the number of tricks you'll get ... plus you play with a full deck.

I used to like Stratego, but haven't played in a while. Same with Clue, but I'm not sure there's any real strategy to that one. Just the luck of the draw, the dice, and random decision making I guess.
