And we played games in this theme. Let's see who played, and what we played...
- Alex (n)
- Ashley, Trumpeteer (n)
- Becky (p)
- Brad, Strategist (n)
- Brian2, Overlord (n)
- Cassy, Mascot (p)
- Fenwick (p)
- Gordon (?)
- Jess (bunny!? <-- that's what it said on the score sheet)
- Joe, Magus (p)
- Justin (n)
- Sandy (v)
- Sean (p)
- Steven (p)
- Ten Days in Europe
- Classic route building game. Fenwick ended up winning, spending most of his time in easternmost Europe.
- Diceland
- My favorite wargame. I never win, but I like it for some reason. Sean and Fenwick played a quick game. Sean eliminated Fenwick (me!) from the board, and had 2 remaining armies (dice) FTW.
- Nexus Ops
- We played a three player game with Sean, Brad, and Fenwick. Brad ended up winning with 10 points (Fenwick had 6, Sean had 4). Fenwick was VERY close to winning, controlling the Monolith, and a "Death From Above" card worth 4 points, which would have been implemented. But alas, it was too late...
- Portobello Market
- This is a *NEW* game club entry! It's definitely a pretty game, great bits. It's simple, but the decisions can be tough. Fenwick claimed a lot of points early, but after that, it went downhill quick. It looked like Gordon had won, but then we noticed an area of the board we hadn't scored! Brian ended up winning by ONE point. (Fenwick had an epic loss of 69 points...)
- Quiddler
- Steven demolished Cassy, Alex and Jess! He had 298 points, next behind him was 212, and it just went down from there...
- The game got pulled out again a little later. Sean won that game with, oddly enough, also 298 points. (Fenwick was close behind with 294. Sandy had to leave in the middle and go to class.)
- Ticket to Ride
- Five new T2R players dragged this one out. They perused the rules and got going. Not sure they played exactly correctly, but whatever way they played seemed consistent. Joe ended up winning the game by ONE point. And, according to the score sheet comments, "He didn't even try or pay attention the entire game!!!"
May was at another table teaching people to play "standard" card games like Palace and B.S. So other games and players were happening, but we didn't write it down -- it was pretty informal.
And there's a few pictures!
10 Days in Europe. A classic.
Diceland. Battling Dice. Slightly strategic, slightly luck. All cool.
Nexus Ops is one of the most gorgeous games around. And there's battling aliens!
Portobello Market is a new one to Game Club. Nice bits, easy to play, quick to learn, quick to play. I think this'll come out again...
And here's Brian2's hand...
