Etienne had bought a new game, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wizards.com\/default.asp?x=ah\/article\/ah20040609a\">Risk: Godstorm<\/a>. I&apos;m starting to rediscover Risk. I&apos;d only played the original years ago, and really didn&apos;t like it. I&apos;ve played <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wizards.com\/default.asp?x=ah\/prod\/risk2210\">Risk 2210<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/lordoftheringsrisk.com\/\">Risk: LOTR<\/a> recently though, and the game has evolved in ways I like.<\/p>\n<p>Godstorm is by far the most violent version yet. Not blood and guts violent, but radical strength changes. In one turn, with two cards, I basically wiped PO off the face of the board and ended up going from second to last place to take the win :D Quite fun. It was a long game though. We only started at 10:30 when Sonia got home &#8211; she&apos;s also a risk fan &#8211; and the game took way longer because we were getting used to the new rules and new cards and such.<\/p>\n<p>All in all though, a very nice way to spend an evening.<\/p>\n<p>Night all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just came back &#8211; it&apos;s 2:45 am, I&apos;m dead on my feet.
