"Okay, plastic bits is something that frequently gets associated with Ameritrash titles. In fact, some of the better aspects of Ameritrash hits all have to do with the wonderful little plastic bits that seem to fill those oversized boxes.
However, there are a number of Euros that have some very nice plastic bits in them. I list a few here, and welcome the list to grow and grow . . . .
(This topic was inspired when, after traveling to the house of some gaming friends for a weekend of fun, recently, I was returning the games we took back to our shelves at home. I carried Torres and Manhattan in to the house, and that clink of plastic in the boxes just filled me with a warm and fuzzy feeling. Like the ka-chunking a box full of Lego makes as you turn it over and over, before opening it and building some new wonder.)"
I went on to list six games, although I am sure the list will be added to.
 |
| Torres |
 |
| Mexica |
 |
| Manhattan |
 |
| Serenissima |
 |
| Ticket to Ride |
 |
| Cleopatra and the Society of Architects |
All of these are wonderful, great titles! And some of them have seen really recent tabletime at The Furze (secret world heaquarters of Gaming with Chuck).
