So glad to hear of your progress, and the bookshelves look great! Keep up the good work on the resolutions.

The candyland game does indeed sound hilarious, with the right group, in the right mood. But, I think I'll pass. Although, as you say, with real gingerbread men..... hmmmm.

I too am trying to play through my unplayed games, although I've had a little less success than you, playing only 2 so far this year.

Awesome bookcases. Why is it that everyone else's games are all the same size and mine aren't?

I got ahold of a copy of "Twilight Struggle" recently, and I must admit that I fall in with the legions who adore it. However, after 5 games and 4 rather handy Soviet victories (and the sole US victory being a somewhat cheeky late-game European upset delivered on radium-plated Chernobyl platter) I have yet to crack the secret to an American victory.
