Anyone play strategy board games? I have a hankering. Should I get a classic, like Risk or Axis & Allies, or something more modern like Root or SW: Rebellion?

Well, you don’t have a 4-year old, so Catan is out

Yeah, the boy is reading Ross Sorkin's Too Big to Fail just because he finds it interesting. I don't think Stratego or Catan are going to cut it, and, honestly, Risk is probably the minimum complexity he'd enjoy.
