You have the chance to play any historical figure at a game (board, computer, card etc) of your choosing.

Who do you play and at what? Multiple answers acceptable and indeed encouraged.

Yes I have been reading too much Red Dwarf. Exams aren't the same without distractions.

I'd go with the following...

-Charades with Shakespeare.
-Chess with Augustus or Sun Tzu.
-Poker with Machiavelli.
-Ghost Recon co-op with David Sterling.
-Risk or Imperialism with Machiavelli or Augustus or Sun Tzu. Maybe all of them at once.
-And I'd play Jesus of Nazareth at Hungry Hungry Hippos. Just because.

Ghengis Khan at 'Jenga'. I couldn't lose to a blood-mad barbarian.

and Winston Churchill at any drinking game ever invented.

My picks
-Napolean or Ceasar at Risk: just to see whos the better world conquerer
-Henry VIII at twister: just because I'm bored

Erwin Rommel in a game of "Panzer Armee Afrika" by SPI

I like your thinking. And maybe get Helen of Troy in there too. And stack the deck!

Yeah and I believe in being prepared.

Napoleon/Casar/Ghenghis Khan/Alexander the Great at Risk or Diplomacy. Get two more world dominant peoples in there and we've got a full game.

Henry the VIII???? Twister???? What are you, MAD???? He'd crush you like a bug if he ever fell down!!!!!

You wouldn't lose the game, but you would probably lose various body parts afterwards.

and Winston Churchill at any drinking game ever invented.

Good pick.

I'd play War with Thawn. Hahaha, I'd like to see him try to create a strategy for that game..

I'd play Genghis Kahn in Trivial Pursuit. He won't know any of the answers because he lived centuries before the events took place, and I'd like to have my body parts hacked off when he loses.

I'd also like to have a funny face contest with Picasso, only to lose when he draws something. Is he historical? He died in the past 50 years, I'm not sure of the exact date.

Julius Ceaser- Monopoly
Joe Louis-Rock'um Sock-um Robots
J.R.R. Tolkien-Dungeuns and Dragons
Ghandi-Marvel vs Capcom 2

Me vs Napoleon in a chess match. Who would win? Bear in mind I haven't played chess in years, no matter what that lunatic who used to lead the anime club might say.

Bobby Fisher at chess. Just to see how fast I could lose.

Would this be Bobby Fisher before or after he went insane?

He went insane? No...he only went into seclusion as far as I had heard...
