Gay Guys board game

Gay Guys board game.

The tentative title was Merry Men, but it turns out that Merry Men is already taken.

Gay (adjective) = happy, cheerful, etc.

Gay Guys is a cooperative board game about a band of cheerful persons who rob from the rich, give to the poor, and oppose a tyrannical, corrupt, and morally bankrupt government.

Gay Guys is set in a fictitious England circa 1192 AD.

Gute Freunde board game



Gute Freunde AKA Good Friends

This is an extremely simple game.

I think it is intended to be a child's first game where they learn some basic game mechanics.

There are no decisions to be made, it is all luck.

Old Joe Clark

Old Joe Clark is one of my favorite folk songs.

I do not always follow the traditional lyrics.

Old Joe Clark he had a house
40 stories high
And every story in that house
Was filled with chicken pie.

Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
Fare thee well I say
Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
For I'm a going away.

Old Joe Clark he had a mule
His name was Morgan Brown
He hitched him up to his wagon
And drove him into town.

Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
Fare thee well I say
Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
For I'm a going away.

I went down to Old Joe's house
He invited me to supper
I stubbed my toe on the table leg
And stuck my nose in the butter.

Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
Fare thee well I say
Fare thee well Old Joe Clark
For I'm a going away.

Dominions 4

http://www.illwinter.com/dom4/

Very deep game.

Like Master of Magic on steroids.

I am only a few hours into the game, and so have barely scratched the surface.

Over 800 spells.

25 nations in each of three eras.

This is a game that I can explore for years.
