Project Propectus

1) How have arms and armour changed over time?
2) A monopoly board with the different weapons as the spaces
3) As one moves along the board, they can see have ancient weapons have developed
4) A monopoly style game board that is enjoyable but educational
5) This game would exhibit the change in weapons like a time-line, but is more entertaining
6) Set up blogger and delicious, find sources, make postcards, design the board with the weapons in chronological order, turn in to game
7) make index cards

  1. Michael --

    This is a fantastic idea -- good work! I have a couple quick questions:

    Your research question talks about both armor and weapons, but the board game only focuses on weapons. Are you only going to focus on weapons, or will you focus on both weapons and armor? My sense is that weapons alone will keep you plenty occupied, but it's your call...

    Is it your vision that the Monopoly board will also have some sort of timeline feature to it, too?

    I'm looking forward to what you guys do with this -- I think you could have a ton of fun creating the Community Chest and Chance and property cards with this, too. Very creative! Well done!

    I'm putting up similar comments over at Aaron's blog, too...
