Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I know The Landlord’s Game/Monopoly and Class Struggle, are there any others?

I looked it up on reddit, and there were some interesting games, but the usual cringe.

Some of the COIN games have cool settings, like Cuba Libre. I have to admit that they're a bit too complex for me to justify buying - Root seems like the happy medium for this style of asymmetrical war games

I have a regular board game group who I play some pretty heavy games. We once played On a Distant Plain, the Afghanistan COIN game. By the end of it, the Coalition Forces player and the US player were legit at each other's throats and tearing their hair out.

9.5/10 simulation of Afghanistan 2/10 if you actually want to have fun and retain friends
