Board Games

no problem, still on leave but in the area. weekends are best time to get a game in. i'm excited to get an intro on race to galaxy.

hopefully the wife has nothing planned. if not, i'll drop by on sunday to say hello to the rest of the crew.

Played five games of Pandemic this weekend with some of my co-workers. Since they are non-gamers (aside from video games) they enjoyed this one. Everyone had fun even though we lost the first three games.

Got this from CH and Pat held it for me. Thanks Pat! All fun was had.

I've been on the board gaming bug lately, so expect to see more recorded sessions from me. However, I don't have plans on writing in-depth reviews and sessions just yet, but maybe sometime in the future. I'm still working on my coworkers to hopefully open their minds up to boardgaming. So far so good.

Sessions played with them so far are:
Ticket to Ride
Pandemic

Agricola/Puerto Rico too soon? lol...

I would still like to make my way down to the shop on a weekend. I don't think we have plans for Saturday so I'm looking forward to drop by.

I'm not sure if there is DND going on but I like to get a couple sessions of boardgaming in. I have these games that I've yet to play.
I have the following that I can bring:

Battlestar Galactica
Agricola
Race to the Galaxy
Alhambra
Puerto Rico
Dominion
Twilight Struggle

Tim, if you got any xp with these games, I'd love for you to teach me and others.

hey i've got and play dominion and race for the galaxy, so i'm down to play anytime, preferably race for the galaxy, on account of how awesome it is.
i'd be interested in playing acricola or puerto rico sometime, also battlestar galactica, just shout out on here or see me around the store, ask pat and tracy to point me out, i'm quite often there

I'm down for board gaming on most of the weekends. I work nights so Saturday is best for me. I a small collection of games and am more than willing to play most of them (as long as my wife and kids don't have me Volun-told for something else). Just let me know when you plan on doing it. I'll show up and play,even if it is only for one or two games.

Phil/Terraling,

Saturday is good for me. Got it approved with the wife/kids so I'll be there. What time should we all meet? Anyone else down to get a game in?

Phil, do you have all the expansions for Race for the Galaxy? Looking forward to meeting you all.

Pat,
I'll remember to bring my L5R deck and take a stab at your Spider Clan. The Crane's blade shall strike true and purge the corrupted from all of Rogukan.


New games on the way... Arriving next week.

Galaxy Trucker
Kingsburg
Kingsburg: To Forge a Realm (expansion)

Can't wait.

cool, i'll get there whenever i wake up, hopefully around 10ish, but i've got a game around 1 so we might only have time for a game or two.

and nope, no expansions yet. i definitely plan on getting them at some point. base game is still fun to me now though

yeah i agree with bobbi, some ppl need to get together for another game of diplomacy = FTW

On Saturday January 23rd, I'd like to get together to game. I have Race (with both Expansions) but it has been a while since I played. I also have Le Havre, but have never had a group get together and actually play. I'm also a huge fan of Dominion, and would like that one too.

Sounds good man, I'll see you there. I'd be down for any of those, I've never played La Havre.

i stopped by the shop last saturday but everyone i knew there was either painting, wow ccg, or involved in alpha omega campaign. today, i promised the wife that i'd take her to get decorations for my daughter's 2yr old party next saturday. sigh... isn't the painting due today? i'm dropping by to drop of my entry.

La Havre sounds fun. Would it be easier if we set a time in about a week's advance?

got more games in the mail....

galaxy truckers and big expansion
citadels and expansion

Mike G

also looking for... "through the ages"
