Fortress America, Conquest Of The Empire, and Shogun

[Guest]

Does anybody on here play the other Gamemaster Series games from Milton Bradley? I have all but one of the games and wonder if there's anybody else left who plays these games. (Fortress America, Shogun, and Conquest Of The Empire).

America Fortress and Shogun are quite good, though Empire doesn't quite stand up to the rest...

What is fortress America about?

[Deviant:Scripter]

Shogun is getting quite old.

The graphics are looking quite pitiful in comparison to other games. They could have done a lot more in terms of character detail.

PS: We are talking about the PC games right?  

[TG Moses VI]

uh... no.  Shogun the board game (the game on the side cover of your A&A box).

I hear its sbout people invading the USA

No, I don't play those. But, hell, I play a ton of other board games. Here are some I suggest (they are a bit harder than A&A to play, very complex).

Hammer of the Scouts (Set in the same time as Braveheart. Highly strategic, involves a combination of pieces and cards, very very fun).

Carcassonne (Imagine a game playing like Rivers, Roads, and Rails, except fun)

Princess Ryan's Star Marines (Amazingly simple and fun team game. Uses a large board and cards)

Settlers of Catan (One of my favorite games, game is completely random every time, build and settle a continent and manage resources)

I play a ton of other games. If you want, post the kind of game you like to play, and I can suggest to you a board game you'd enjoy.

Sorry, I don't own A&A.

Play Civil War (great game)

[GeZe]

Sorry, I don't own A&A.

You dont own A&A? what do you own? A&AE and/or A&AP?

Sorry, I don't own A&A.

You dont own A&A? what do you own? A&AE and/or A&AP?

Nope, I don't own any of these games.
The closest I came was that I played Risk once. But I hated it, so I never played it again.

[GeZe]

why are you on these forums then?

Carcassone is big fun.
Three of my fav board games:

Junta (Long live El Presidente ... as long as i am Minister for Security)
Kremlin (a game of Gerontocracy... recommended age to play: 50+)
Britannia (replay the invasion into Britain from the Romans to the Normans)

each a few or more years old, but they are all fun.

Britannia (replay the invasion into Britain from the Romans to the Normans)

Britannia is really one of the best games ever made. I have never had so much fun playing a game as I have playing with an experienced group of Britannia players.

Of course, I'm always stuck playing Green (I get conned into it every time). And the stupid Danes always have horrible luck...


If you like Britannia, try playing Maharaja. It plays the same way, except it takes place in India.
