Colosseum

Last night, the boys and I played one of our Christmas games - "Colosseum".  The idea of the game is to build your arena and produce events for your arena.  There's a lot more to it than that, but that's the general idea in a nutshell. Anyway, I won the game last night!  Woo hoo for me! But, that will probably be the only time I win that game.  Why? Because it's a strategy game. Since it was our first time playing, there was more learning of the rules than strategizing going on.  So I got lucky.  But, now that the boys know the rules, they will start that whole planning way far ahead thing, which I stink at (and which is why I don't play "Risk"), and I will never win again.  

I may solve that by just never playing the game again!
