					<description><![CDATA[Just wanted to provide some updates on Euronimoes. First, the game is now rated on BGG! Sure, it&#8217;s currently #11,118, but for a print-and-play game, that&#8217;s really pretty good. Second, quite a few more folks have rated it: it now has 32 ratings, with an average rating of 7.59. This is actually higher than the [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So I finally got around to my third (and possibly final?) update to Euronimoes.  Compared to version 2.0, the game is considerably more refined, though on the surface the changes are subtle.  Mainly, I&#8217;ve tweaked the economy a little bit and have tried to mitigate the ill-effects of edge-case situations. So what, exactly, are the [&#8230;]]]></description>

I&#8217;m biased, of course, but I think the changes have improved the game considerably.  The most significant changes are these: Improved graphics.  Graphics are never my strong suit, but hey &#8212; at least it&#8217;s prettier [&#8230;]]]></description>
