So, I've got a homemade Axis & Allies gameboard I put together a while back; about 6ft by 3.5ft. I've also got about 3 sets worth of A&A pieces to go with it. Makes for quite a nice massive game. Anyone interested, or should I just leave it at home?

Ooh...A&A on a real map...been awhile since i did that one. I'm on for a match.Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

This could fit well into the "Gaming Unplugged" tournament @ Big Huge Games' headquarters on the Friday night. Given the dimensions you've quoted of what you have put together, though, I cannot guarantee or otherwise speak to available space.
I will see what I can find out.

I'm a big RISK player (a friend of mine even designed a map of Wisconsin for Risk that we play called "WISK" ) I might be interested but the rules seem like they could be complicated.First Master, Banan-Abbot of the Nana-stary, and Arch-Nan of the Order of the Sacred Banana.

Well, I'll have it on standby. If we find out at the last minute it'll fit, I can always run home and get it.Comment

A&A would be a bit big (and long...) for what we were thinking, I believe, but could be interesting. RISK or something like that might be better time-wise.
Keep in mind, we have about 3 hours for the gaming unplugged...
I'm going to see if we can get a room for friday night, the hotel indicated they might have one.<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

From my experience Risk can take as long as A&A. If time is an issue there are always card games (from regular playing cards to Frank's Zoo, Take5, the Great Dalmutti, TaiPan) quick to learn and fast to play. You can do 3-4 different games in 3 hours.Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness.

I ahve the new version of A&A.
Anything weaker then A&A is too wussy to play. I have heard that some might be interested in playing real Civilization (the Avalon Hill Board Game) which I would eagerly play (I haven't played for 4 years, but I have played it over 50 times and it is one of my favorites).
