...is... I want to build up to that at the mo.
All you have to do to win at monopoly is based around gaining these certain properties, which are... the train Stations.

Or for some of the other versions you have, the properties that appear once on each side of the board right in the middle.

I play with the top hat, my dad always goes for the battle ship, and my mum usually goes for the dog.

Then again, with some careful arrangement, the dog can sit in the car!

I beg to differ. I believe that due to the fact it is so unloved, the boot must be considered, but at the end of the day, the winner is...

The Top Hat

...and make no mistake.

I always buy as many train stations as possible, the oranges and the dark blues. Its a winning combination. Let us discuss which character (I think thats the right word) is the best...

Geniuses think alike. 100s have been known to go 'missing' quite regularly in our games, but the hallowed 500 never has been quite able to follow. Plans are being written up as we speak, though.

I like your underhand styles.

For me, light blues are the daddy - they're cheap enough that if you can procure them early enough in the game, you can afford to get them hotel'd up uber-quick, for a tasty 500 squid tax every few turns. You can then build up to the yellows (or oranges), then to really take the mick, lay your hands on the dark blues at the end of the game, when you've got cash to spunk on them - it's the final nail in the coffin.

And the other good thing to do - bargain hard when it comes to property sales. Don't give anything away unless you're getting something better.
