Today Me, Caroline, and Ben played the game (for our sixth day in a row) Settlers of Catan. In the base game Settlers of Catan, You build settlements, cities, and roads along wheat fields, mountains, forests, sheep pastures, brick deposits, and a desert. Using resources you have collected over the course of the game you can buy Development Cards, Cities, and Settlements. You can also deploy the robber on your opponents land. By getting the Largest Army and Longest Road cards you can insure a victory. By purchasing cities, settlements, longest road, and largest army you gain a certain number of victory points. The game ends when a player has reached 10 victory points. Well anyway back to our game. Usually when my younger brother Ben gets thwarted and trapped he either starts groaning in disappointment or he gets extremely hyper. Today me and Caroline placed our pieces completely around his pieces. A mix of supreme hyperness and anger. Throughout the entire game he was reminding us of the bad choices we had made while placing our pieces. He finally stopped when I reminded him that he was beating both of us. In the end however, I was crowned victorious!
