Twilight Struggle


Cut and pasted from The Messy Game Room's BGG guild:


As a warm-up for our online tourney, Marshall and I played an epic game Twilight Struggle last night. I snatched a glorious auto-victory from him in turn two by the incredibly bold (and unbelieveably lucky) play of 5 Year Plan which had him discard Europe Scoring. Since Marshall had Control of Europe at that time he would have won the game.What followed was 3 hours of Poppycock, coups, frozen Mexican meat-filled pastries, re-alignment rolls(!), Coke Zero, and several exclamations from Marshall that he "hates this fucking game!" When it was all said and done, there was over 50 points of influence in Italy, and an Evil Empire was finally laid to rest.
