Sign up for Junta on Sunday the 16th

THIS COULD BE YOU!!!
4 to 7 lucky Olympians can have the chance of becoming El Presidente de la Republicos dos Bannanas! And who wouldn't want to jump at the opportunity of draining a small dictatorship dry while pumping the money into your private Swiss Bank Account? Of course, to do that, you'd have to go to the Bank, with it's infamous Lobby of Assassins, who smoke cigars, drink espresso & wait for you to show up with your big wad of cash. Don't let that happen! Party at the Nightclub! Visit your Mistress! Or just hunker down in your Headquarters, plotting the coup that will finally bring freedom & democracy & the ability to send your political rivals to the Firing Squad! Yes, life is cheap in the Republic, and shots will be fired. But no one is ever out of the game, alliances are constantly forming & breaking, and everyone has an equal chance of retiring to that idyllic villa on the French Riviera. So join us in a very fun, very fast & fluid game of JUNTA!!! http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/242
