    What can individuals do to privately adapt games, whether altering components to make them easily recognized or reformatting rulebooks into large print. The legal issues are discussed and reference made to a group (bigboardgames.net) which gets permission to print larger versions of wargames.

    submitted by Jeff Siadek

    And with more cards you can have more players…

    What game has the widest and best scaled player count?
    submitted by K0HR

    When you have that many players, put them in teams…

    What games…can easily be played in teams?
    submitted by toddbarker
