in reply to Carcasonne, Settlers of Catan

Ooh, I'm quite impressed that these german games (both of which were game of the year once), are actually well known in other places too.. I havent played for a while, but I love both of them..

Oh, and my claim to fame in this area, I met the guy that designed Siedler of Catan (spelt with a C, even here) at the games fair in Essen a few years back.. Great place to be, btw. (November every year in Essen..) I also have a signed copy of the PC game. (Note, it's nowhere near as fun as the board game.. hohum..)
