Comment Skipping Class to Play Games (Score 1) 583
A few of us slackers at our Undergrad Physics Society skipped class all the time to play the different version of Risk, among many other games.
I recommend any game by Avalon Hill or Steve Jackson Games.
Illuminati is a favorite.
Diplomacy is a blast! It's like Risk, but without the ramdomness of dice. This game is ALL about making/breaking alliances.
I used to really like a game Avalon Hill used to make called Titan. They don't make it anymore though and it's hard to find now.
Star Fleet Battlesis always a fun game if your up for reading binders upon binders of rules. I never bothered learning any other rules than for the Starfleet vessels though.
