Sports Broadcasts vs Board game tournament reporting.

That’s all three big battles in the show (Blackwater, The Wall & Bastardbowl) decided by a third army showing up in the nick of time and saving a losing force from being wiped out.

Jon Zombie Snow is a truly woeful military commander, why do people follow him? Sansa should be proclaimed Queen in the North and marry Sweetrobin.

Why didn’t Ramsey have scouts looking out for the Vale army (or any other reinforcements)?

Where was the Bolton cavalry (and archers) when the Vale Knights attacked?

Why didn’t Sansa tell Ramsey the Eagles were coming; she could have negotiated a deal where they got Rickon back alive and Ramsey slunk back to the Dreadfort.

The Maesters will have to cook something up to take out the dragons next season.

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.

Depending on where you live you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding a comic book shop or card shop or dedicated game shop that would have a copy of something on the shelf. There isn’t really a national game store franchise. It is mostly just some guy with a store or maybe a regional concern with four or five shops.

My local shop usually gets one copy for anyone who’s a regular who asks and one for the shelf when a new version comes out. Typically though he doesn’t replace that till Christmas shopping season but will order one for you with a small deposit. The markup on these games isn’t very high so you probably aren’t going to go to one shop and find a copy of everything.

Toys R’ Us probably has copies of ‘42 and maybe a decent chance of Guadalcanal or a less decent chance of BOTB. I’d think it pretty slim to find a copy of Pacific or Europe at Toy R’ Us given the price point.

Try your yellow pages under hobby, or games, or comics. Also you might try something like www.comicshoplocator.com and give your closest shop a call. You might also try something like this Days of Wonder Store Locator. Someplace that sells games like that is likely to have a copy or two of Axis and Allies.

Something like this might help.

Theres millions of ideas out there. I call my platoon my Mates, Dawgz, Niggaz, Homes, Bros, Battlebuddys, Dudes, Bitches, KAC (KickAssCrew) etc.

But for a gaming club, I think “Tabletop Nerds” might be appropriate.

That sounds hawt.  Ill join in the fray and give the money to a charity to help hookers in need.

Unbreakable sounds good, ctm. I’ll check it out.
@bossk:

…Toxic Avenger…other super heros of Tromaville, Sgt. Kabookiman NYPD, Dolphin Man, Vibrator, Masturbator, and Mad Cowboy.

Toxic Av…sounds and looks like somebody had a little fun spoofing all the toxic heroes that came before…

Trauma/vile and other… Yep!

@TG:

I am sure he was just joking…
Though a Canadian singing our stars and stripes was mighty “interesting.” :wink:
