    None of them have stumbled upon the 'buy up any property and all the houses' strategy yet?

    That was everyone's strategy. But Coop was the first one lucky enough to get houses on all his property and as he was converting to hotels Abby went bankrupt. She had bankrupted her mom earlier.

    I should have been more clear... I was talking about the one where you buy up housesand dump them on any property you can, but purposely don't upgrade to hotels. It's apparently supposed to prevent other players from developing their properties much at all since there's only 24 houses or something. Haven't played in ages, but I have seen this strategy repeatedly posted as clickbait.

    Ahhh...against the spirit of the rules I think. I'd issue more houses.

    Is it? Seems like monopolizing the houses would be very much in the spirit of dickery. We should discuss over lunch tomorrow or Friday.

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
