Looking forward to seeing Peking China, in ruins after the next great war.
Look what I found…...
-
……at the World War 1 Memorial and Museum in Kansas City, MS. I was browsing through the museum gift store and in the toy section…lo and behold here this was on a shelf just above the stuffed monkeys. :-D They only want $110 for it. :roll:
-
Hmm…intriguing. I can see why they’d sell that game at a WWI memorial and museum, but I can’t grasp the rationale for selling stuffed monkeys – unless perhaps it’s to keep the kids amused while their parents tour the exhibitions?
-
No Marc - it is to keep them amused while their parents settle down to another day long A&A session. Complementary marketing!
-
I know the reason for the monkeys…
Husband and wife are visiting the museum… Husband sees A&A 1914 for $110… “hey honey, look, here’s a monkey, look at the monkey!” [Husbands slips the clerk $110 for 1914 while wife is distracted].
-
Maybe they sell monkey because of this?
-
Wow that’s an interesting story, Coach.
Please tell me that won’t be your next expansion set, “South African Monkeys at War”.
Hmmm… I wonder if we can think of a house rule for that???
Hey!! Quit looking at my monkey! -

Hey!! Quit looking at my monkey!No. we will pass on this one!

I’m surprised nobody has made a movie of it yet. It is quite fascinating.

Ah. Yes, that makes sense. It’s a good thing they’re not selling Global 1940 because it would take more than a few monkeys to keep the kids amused for a full-length session of that gigantic game.
