    Anyone ever played the game? It is awesome fun, my FI and his brothers are all playing now (they dont let me play anymore because I keep their butts!) and just wanted to ask if any other bees have played?

    For those who haven't, it is a shifting board game using skills similar to risk.

    This is how my FI and I met!!! We met on the zone.com when a free trial of an online version of Catan was being offered. We kept in contact via email & met up once we were both newly single a year later! We really aren't huge geeks- I swear! :)

    On our first date, walking by a game store, we saw a huge 3D special addition Catan chest in the window... I keep going back on forth as to whether or not I should buy it as a wedding gift to him! However... you need atleast 3 players, so we've never played in real life! lol we can't get any of our friends to play it with us!

    A 3-d version? I've never heard of something so fantastic!

    I used to play at summer camp every week (that's how I got my mad skills) and FFIL bought the game for all of us this Christmas.  I freaked out I was so excited!

    The 3D version is around $400! But this thing is a piece of art  :)

    My FI's little brother and his girlfriend brought this game over one night, and now I've put it on our wedding registry!  I LOVED it, and I generally don't like games!  It was so fun, though it did take a while for me to get the hang of it.  I thought I'd suck at it forever, until I almost beat FI's little bro (who plays it almost nightly) on the third game.  I was thisclose to beating him, and I was so freakin' proud!  :)

    I've played the version on the X-Box 360 and I am totally hooked. We are looking to get the board game version if we can find some friends who are local who want to play.

    I love Settlers so much! FH doesn't know how to play (yet) but I plan to teach him after he teaches me Magic. :)

    THERE IS A 3D VERSION?!!! DOES IT COME WITH THE EXPANSION PACK?!

    I love that some of us bees are totally geeking out over this... my FI and I play all the time with our friends.  I am so bad at it, but it's fun!
