I wonder if Comte de Largent if his Monopoly board game is still unpunched. 
Nah, it's not a wargame, so probably no.

PS: a typo got Le Comte triggered. Sorry for this micro aggression! 
As for Ed, I don't think he would care much for a mass-market boardgames but it's better to ask him.

Why don't you ask Ed, shitbag.

As the youngest in a family of five I always had to pick last.  I don't have a particular affinity for any token; just don't like seeing them gold-colored.

Then in a holiday to the UK I bought Star Wars monopoly with pewter Luke, Vader, Han, et al and never looked back.

I was like 15, didn't know better.

Monopoly is a stupid game.

It's a great game.  Deal making, negotiation, random chance, financial analysis, probability analysis.

Only two drawbacks are that it's very long and people get sad when they go bankrupt.

It is a lot like real life.

Life is also a stupid game.

Fun Monopoly story:

When I was a kid, I had the flu and was forced to play the game. A bit into it, I barfed all over the game.

I was able to be left alone in my misery afterwards.

The next big puke story was 8th grade. The jr. High wasn't airconditioned and it was hot as hell. About 11 am, I lost control right in the classroom and puked up fried eggs, bacon and toast. It was aromatic.

I got a week off school. Mom would let me go back until I felt better. Of course I milked the "illness".
