    John's deciding on if it's "Merica"??? It's literally called "Founding Fathers!" Who else could it possibly be other than the Founding Fathers of... wait for it... America?! LOL but I do agree, the pitch wasn't exactly "fireworks on the 4th of July" :P :D lol

    You all forgot America! We play it every 4th of July. Great list! Even with that glaringly obvious mistake (I mean does anyone really watch baseball anymore)? But seriously, this is the most American top ten list of America games I've ever watched. Kudos.

      I love this comment from start to finish! Your right America! should have been on the list. I feel like Andy owned the game, I wonder if he would have attempted to add it to the list.
      And your right about Baseball. I actually was scared Chris would Veto it because "Football is now the American sport" is something he totally would say. - Daniel

    Our 4th of July game for the last few years has been "1775: Rebellion". We could add "The Shores of Tripoli" to the rotation this year, but 1775 is a must. Unfortunately, "Founding Fathers" will be on our shelf of shame until we have a third player.

    • @AroundtheBoardShow

      1775 is such a great game. I only played it once, but it was the best gaming experience I had that year. It was a lot of fun. The unique cards each faction has is sooo powerful, but its fun because they are ALL powerful so it doesn't feel unfair. - Daniel

    I'm with Daniel on this. Going hard and heavy on the historical games. 1775 is awesome, that system is like Risk for the hobbiest gamers. Academy Games also does Freedom the Underground Railroad which is solid. I've always wanted to try Founding Fathers. Out there pick I would have chosen is Greed Incorporated.
    Loving this format! The island games vid was a riot.

    • @AroundtheBoardShow
      @AroundtheBoardShow  10 днів тому +1

      Thanks for the comment. We made sure not to stay to heavy in the history section which is why we said "Murica" and not just American themed games. I would have said less History games, but these fools kept hating on the history.
      Founding Fathers is a cool game, maybe it hasn't aged the best since some of the cards are very swingy, but it is a unique experience.
      Any thoughts on what our next top 10 video should be? I was thinking Top 10 games we would play with Taylor Swift. - Daniel

    Chris if you wanted guns, way better choices than Bang would be Carson City or Coloma or I have not played it Western Legends. But Daniel you are so right Bang is just so boring. Vegas showdown would be better than Las Vegas.....I do not get the love you have for this game. Chris you talk about industries that developed this nation and yet exclude whaling. This country wouldn't be here without New England Whaling. Catan...Chris I do not think you and I would be good gaming partners. Acquire would have been a great pick the first great American Designer, a game about building Hotels and Motels and stocks and takeovers. This list I might not walk right into the shark's mouth but I might debate a bit.

      Lets pretend Trump the Game was actually Acquire. I really like that Acquire being on this list.
      I can't tell if your comments about whaling is series or trolling? I mean I didn't even know Americans were involved in Whaling, but I am very aware of the Train industry. "VETOed!" - Daniel

      Well, all but one we would say are great. John just trolled us, and he got bit. But in John's defence, he remembered the game being okay. After all John is old and was able to play it when it was the hotness. - Daniel

      So did Chris! But your right. I should have know Chris wouldn't veto anyone's but mine. I still can't believe you didn't veto 1830!
