decently fun game.

If you play, you should go to: http://games.asobrain.com/It's wicked sick.
4/24/2010 9:47:05 PM
The game is called Xplorers; it's exactly like Catan... just don't mention the name "Settlers," "Catan," or "Settlers of Catan." They don't take that too kindly lol.

i've only played once on the actual board game, but have it for xbox. the xbox opponents aren't that difficult, but are annoying because they never trade like real people would.
4/24/2010 9:54:27 PM
LOVE THAT SHIT!Used to play it all time in high school.I'll fire this up and play against bots every once in a while:http://www.jsettlers.com/I only play the original version because the expansion packs made the game too long and too confusing.
4/24/2010 10:43:16 PM
^I tried that, but it's garbage.. Xplorers looks like the Xbox version and is wicked clean.
4/24/2010 10:45:31 PM
it's fun for a quick game.sea3d looks a lot better but i never got around to playing it too much
4/24/2010 10:48:52 PM
Settlers and Star Wars Epic Duels got me through college
4/24/2010 10:56:09 PM
I definitely don't want to play anything that this asshole does.
4/24/2010 11:13:04 PM
sheep are the most useless resource. it makes me mad when we have a four player game and space is tight so i'm relegated to a space with sheep on two sides. what the hell am i supposed to do with all of them? no one wants to trade for sheep. you end up with a bunch of useless cards that you have to trade 4:1 or lose them all when a 7 is rolled.
4/24/2010 11:34:05 PM
Well sheep are good to an extent, as long as you have plenty of wheat & ore to buy development cards.
4/24/2010 11:51:04 PM
i play this
4/24/2010 11:59:31 PM
you should be able to fuck the sheep...that's what shepherds have been doing from time immemorial]
4/25/2010 12:01:35 AM
my friends love this game. it bores the shit out of me.
4/25/2010 12:01:45 AM
sheep are horrible and development cards are usually a waste of resources and only bought as a last resort. sure, you can try to get largest army or a single victory point, but that's no fun. the joy from this game comes from collecting huge stacks of cards each roll and then not trading with anyone else.

^i.e. being a huge Jew. Have you tried the expansions? They're worth a go...
4/25/2010 12:10:00 AM
I've heard this is good, but I am automatically inclined to dislike any board game with expansion packs.Expansion packs are for late-90s video games, and not much else.

this game ends friendships

A lot of board games actually have expansions, such as Carcasonne. The Cities & Knights expansion is my favorite...http://www.amazon.com/Settlers-Catan-Cities-Knights-Expansion/dp/B000W7I7EW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1272168722&sr=8-4
4/25/2010 12:15:49 AM
cities and knights was bearable, seafarers was god awful
4/25/2010 1:56:28 AM
so what is thisI'm AstralAdvent and i approved this message.
4/25/2010 1:57:28 AM
i play IRL and online occasionally... the real game is at http://www.playcatan.com/to play online players you've got to install an application. it's all free, unless you want the expansion games..[Edited on April 25, 2010 at 2:12 . Reason : ]

4/25/2010 2:45:37 AM
it doesn't really end friendships, just strains them for a couple of hours because you couldn't get anyone to trade you any brick.
4/25/2010 2:49:25 AM
^you must lose a lot....just let me know when yall want to play, and i'm there..[Edited on April 25, 2010 at 2:51 . Reason : f]

I got both my girlfriend and my roommate addicted. At any given time, I might walk into the living room and see Jim playing the board game with his girlfriend or Erika playing the XBLA version.

I still like the idea of inviting over 10+ people and having two games running at once.
