So what have we been playing recently at our Craft Days? Mostly "Command & Colors, Ancients". Cate, Will and John gave me the game. Good work Cate finding a copy, as it is currently out of print.
Expansion games 4 and 6 are in print and it was inevitable I had to buy them.
Expansion game 1 is also out of print, very hard to find and critical to being able to play the games in Expansion 6.
We have played a number of "block games" over the last two years. Although I had resisted them for a long time, they actually got me very interested in board game again.
The gaming experience was greatly enhanced by playing Expansion game 5, "C&C Epic Ancients II". This game combines 2 sets of boards and a new set of cards that produces large but very manageable games, with interesting command rules for multi-player games.
