Who are we, that wait for a game like a child on Christmas morning?

ISIS & ALLIES
A Modern Take On A Classic Board Game!

Extremists threaten the globe!
Lead the coalition forces of Iraq, Syria, the Peshmerga, and Hezbollah into battle!
Or rally foreign fighters to join the cause of Islamic State!
As the coalition, order US airstrikes.
As ISIS, win the war on the internet to radicalize the West.

Change the course of history… as it’s being made!

What do think? It could happen, right?

Anything can translate into a board game, but sometimes you just gotta wait a few years while things blow over, and this idea might be one of those times.

Obviously, in real life this would have to be done way after the events, to avoid it being called pro-ISIS or offending ISIS or anything. It’s one thing to make board games featuring Nazis or Soviets, another to make one featuring terrorist groups. You’d have to do it carefully.

Will it be made? Probably not. Could it? Yes.

I’m not censoring anything for those douche bags…both Daesh or the PC crowd. F*ck em!

Don’t worry though, it won’t be long before US combat soldiers find their way back over there going “weapons free”. If that happens, the game wouldn’t be terribly interesting since it would be unbalanced and a seperate game dedicated to counter insurgency and wide area security probably wouldn’t sell too well either.

The last starfighter is a fun movie, but it’s less of a controller than it is an Arcade game.

Great article marc!

Underway on board USS Providence SSN 719.  We had just LEFT the gulf to make our way home….we were already in need of repairs after 5 months of being deployed and had just made critical repairs to our electric plant.  It was about 2100 when every officer got called to the wardroom (we were at PD).  About an hour later while I was on watch finishing up some samples, we got told over the 1MC about the reports and the little info that was given to us.  Immediately this ship was on blackout comms back and forth, so the wife didn’t hear from me for two months.  We immedieatly turned around, flanked back, put two fish in the tubes, loaded up two tomahawks in the tubes, and found a welcoming committee waiting for us not knowing if they were friend or foe yet…it took about a week for them to denounce the attacks, but we didn’t know going in to that…Like to say after almost of a month of waiting, the ship launched every tomahawk we could at those fraking a-holes…we wanted to reload at Diego Garcia, but they said home is where we belonged…didn’t help that our Seawater systems were becoming fouled like a mofo after sitting off the coast for a month.

Providence would then be called to do the same its next deployment against Iraq.  This time she did reload.  :evil:

Or DONE AT ALL…

Hahaha… ouch.

Well when the German set is said to be “released soon” for over a year, you don’t update your site, and you don’t respond to questions. Then “done at all” does seem to fit.

Ya get the 48" stick, and I like that ministers chess set with more squares on board.

Only $450 and its yours,
