Well, at least it's the highest ranked game at boardgamegeek. The article is interesting and has some nice statistics. I get the feeling that many gamers kinda like statistics.  :D

Huh.
Still have yet to find a board game that replaces my love for RISK, but this could be fun.
Left the internet, more-or-less.... Might drop in occasionally.

* Random quote

The prevalence of anoxic environments rich in organic material, combined with the presence of nitrated compounds has led to an astonishing variety of underground organisms which live in the absence of oxygen and 'breathe' nitrate. Likewise, the scarcity of carbon in the environment has forced plants to economize on its use. Thus, all our efforts to return carbon to the biosphere will encourage the native life to proliferate. Conversely, the huge quantities of nitrate in the soil will be heaven to human farmers.
