Never played it, played tons of others though such as Axis and Allies (All 3 version, world, europe and pacific) Risk (Original, Lotr and 2210) Diplomacy, Napoleon in Europe and a few others.

Anyone played any of them?

I've Played LotR Risk.

Stratego is a little bit similar to chess.

There are two sides, with different kinds of troops:

2 - These guys can go forward/sideways as many spaces.
3 - These guys disarm bombs.
4 - Just another fighter.
5 - A fighter.
6 - A fighter.
7 - A fighter.
8 - A fighter.
9 - A fighter.
10 - Tens can only be killed by another ten or a spy.
Spy - Spies are weak, and can only kill a ten.

It has a picture of a type of warrior on each piece. I like it.

I HATE RISK!!!!!

However I have played Stratego once or twice and it was pretty good, the whole aspect about bluffing your opponent about which of your pieces is where was definately the most fun.
