there arent many games where you rely solely - or mostly on your brain ..

chess, trivial pursuit ...one or 2 more ?


with risk ... i spend most of my time in amazement at my supernaturally bad luck with the dice.
same here. Its why i hated board games when i was a kid. 50% of the game was me getting shitty roles (or bad cards in sorry), the other 45% was my sister cheating her ass off.

She got the Starwars edition of trivial pursuit one year, though, and after that her ass was mine. i dont think i ever got a questions wrong.
