I've always been more interested in games that are a long, maybe that is why I enjoy playing RPGs. But Risk remains one of my favorite games to play. Though I'm surprised anyone else played Stratego, I thought I was the only one. I loved that it was so much about a careful setup and using your pieces wisely and keeping a good memory. Its been ages since I've played that game.

Other games that are not strictly board games are Twixt and Othello that I also enjoy playing. Though sadly Twixt is a discontinued game, so I don't think that many people actually ever played.

If the game require thought and planning rather than the acts of randomized luck I enjoy it a lot more. Which is why I love playing Chess and I have an interest in trying out Go sometime if it was not for the prohibitive cost of a good Go board. Though it would also be difficult to find someone to play Go with since outside of Japan I don't think it is nearly as a popular, namely the US.
