Avalon Hill's Divine Comedy

To any fan of Avalon Hill, August 8, 1998 is the true day of infamy! This game, previously known as "Monsters Ravage America" was a late Avalon Hill product before their demise and not too many people acquired it because it's existence was unknown. To the few who were able to get a copy, you know who you are! This is a VERY ENTERTAINING game in the best spirit of Gigantic Monster Movie FUN. The rules have been simplified, but the essential plan of the game is the same. You have monsters that look like Godzilla, King Kong, The Deadly Mantis, The Smog Monster, A giant lobster man ala' "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea", and a BIG EYE. All have certain powers and can go hollywood if they run out of strength..and in the best spirit of monster movies can DISAPPEAR suddenly and return at a later time to set a new path of terror and destruction. You get the usual set of hapless Army, Navy, National Guard and Marines unloading thousands of rounds of ammo to bring down the beasts by using massed attacks. It sometimes works but the monsters can always go hollywood until they get their vitality back! The scene of disaster is AMERICA, not JAPAN. I would venture to say this is to the great relief of that previously ravaged country. Your creature may mutate at Three Mile Island and become something different entirely and the game ends with a "Carnival of Monsters" contest to duke it out and see who's the greatest. A great game and unlike other "war" games of the era, FUN.

I can not say enough good things about this game.
It's super fun for all ages. I bought this game for my nephews and they actually put down their PSPs to play it!
I play against my girlfriend some times, but my friends have also begun to take interest in it. You have a map
of America, with cities and other bonus spaces on it. You have a monster (one of 6 to choose from) from the
classic 1950's monster films. You also get one of the 4 Branches of Military. After playing once, it gets addictive.
It requires luck of dice rolling, strategy of Military movement (you only get 8 units for each Branch), and
trash talking to get other players to go after another player's monster instead of yours.
At the end of the "regular" game (which is Monsters Vs. Military) you go Monster Vs. Monster in an
all out monster battle, to see who is the most powerful monster!
Kicks butt.
Get this game.

My only complaint is it is only for 4 players. We use the National Guard as a 5th player if we have more people.
There are 6 monsters to choose from, only 4 (not counting National guard) military branches.

The other games my friends, nephews, etc. like to play is called Dread Pirate. Get that as well. Simple and fun.
And it's got Pirates in it, so.... good choice.

If you like this game, then you will like War of the Monsters PS2, and
Destroy All Humans PS2

A good game made great

As a fan of giant monsters (or "Kaiju" as we fanboys like to call them), I've always yearned for a good strategy board game that captures the kaiju feel. Well, finally, here it is.

MMA is actually a revision of an older game "Monsters Ravage America". I liked that game a lot, but this one has streamlined the play without losing anything in the process. There's also a lot less counters to keep track of, which is so much more convenient.

Game play is deceptively simple. Each player gets a monster and a military branch. Your goal is to make your monster as powerful as possible by stomping cities, military bases, famous landmarks, etc, and maybe stopping by a toxic waste dump to pick up a handy dandy mutation. Meanwhile, you use your military units to harrass and weaken your opponent's monsters. After a certain number of cities have been stomped, it's time for the monster showdown, where one victor will be crowned King of the Monsters.

Presentation is colorful and fun. There's enough strategy for multiple plays and enough luck to keep it interesting. If you love Kaiju like I love Kaiju, I highly recommend this game.

Each player is one of six Giant Monsters, stomping across a map of the USA in search of cities to destroy. The monsters run the gamut from the classic (enormous lizards and gargantuan apes) to the slightly more unconventional (giant walking eyeball), and each has its own set of attributes and powers.
