Settlers of Catan

Another strategy game that seemed very old fashioned. It reminded me of a nomad or a farmer, which was odd. There seemed to be too many steps involved in playing this, where you need to build a settlement and gather up points. I don't really like games like this where there are too many steps involved in the mechanics, its too much to remember while at the same time coming up with a strategy and beating your opponent. I was just trying to figure out what I should do, but this didn't last long because I blanked half way through and was lost the rest of the game play. I worried people would notice, luckily no one did and I still managed to get by, not surprising that I lost however, still good to have another game board experience under my belt so I was fine with that. I need to start trying to become more strategic and winning so I can start up a winning streak and brag about it. Doubt that will happen though.
