So I'm teaching my Grandfather to play Settlers of Catan, and at one point he rolls a 7. He then proceeds to say, "OK, so I'm just going to stick my little man in your forest, so you can't get wood". And so, the rest of the game I'm stifling back laughter.
"Do you have wood for sheep?" = "Do you get sexually aroused, making blood flow to your genitals, causing an erection which could also be called 'wood', by the thought of farm animals, whose fur is used to produce clothing, and having intercourse with said animal?"
you know how the 5-6 player ver has another ring of land? well my brother-in-law and my father decided they love the game so much (as do alot of our family and family freinds) that they would take it one step further. my dad got a crappy bumper pool/poker table for his birthday a year before and the top was a large hexagon, so my brother in law who is an artist, designed a massive settlers board a whole ring larger than the expanded version, carved it into a wood placement that sits inside the table perfectly. My dad ordered more settlers player pieces, painted them different colors like silver and gold, and now we have had 9 players on a board at once. The love of the game is real.
he used to make them to sell, but they are time consuming and expensive :p He mentioned before maybe selling them and it would be somewhere around $1000. If you get up close you can see hes painted the whole thing very well. waves, little islands and a seamonster. takes him a looong time because he does both sides.
Whenever I play this game with my friends, we have a little sub-game going. We see how many times we can say something along the lines of "getting wood" until someone giggles.
Settlers of Catan, a game where you run long-ass, diplomatic negotiations with your friends to exchange sheep for clay. Best strategy board game I ever played.
Yea, normally I do play with about 4-5 others (we have this weird expansion thing), but I was trying to teach someone else to play, not really playing a legit game.
