Struggle Of Empires *ND

| Epic long term struggle to become the dominant European empire in the age of colonization. Very clever game indeed - you play a point accumulation game but overlaying this the management of the other players! As it says in the rules - make your enemies your allies and be at war with your friends. |
In the Shadow of the Emperor

| I like games that explore and explain aspects of history. An essential characteristic of European history for a thousand years was the Holy Roman Emperor - usually weak but always important and equally hard to comprehend in our modern world. Here is the fun way of illuminating obscure history, with excellent and innovative game mechanics. |
Medieval Merchant

| This game has been sometimes misunderstood - the board may make people think it is an ugly route building game. However what it really is, is a rather brilliant exposition of a boom and bust type of economy - e.g. dot.com explosion in modern times. In this case it's pepper in medieval Germany. High costs for quick entry and early market dominance - but the profits don't last. |
