War Against Terror - the Board Game

3.15.00pm BST (GMT +0100) Sat 22nd Sep 2007

A couple of guys came up with the idea of a board game which satirises the whole WMD/Iraq/Axis of Evil thing. Read about it in the Federation of Small Businesses magazine, which I picked up at a fringe event at Conference.

Looks like a really fun game, on so many levels!!

Surprised that at least two companies that agreed to distribute the product thought that doing business is a game. In one case, they had to pay ransom money to a distribution company that refused to hand back their stock, having lied about dispatching it over a long period. The guys then had to deal with orders that weren't satisfied and all the customer service problems.
