5 Players: G, W, S, J & M
Choice: J
Game One:
Winner S (37 pts), 2nd J (30 pts), 3rd M (26 pts), 4th W (25 pts), 5th G (24 pts)
Final Tally:
S the clear winner.
S the clear winner.
- S was the first player to get to eight city improvements
- Game was played with Dark City expansion: nine character cards with dealer's choice for swapping one card per king/shuffle
- Few cards were swapped: Tax Collector for Thief, Navigator for Architect, Emperor for King, bur not much else.
- It was suggested that M and W not sit next to each other next game
- It was suggested that the game might actually have been quicker with six players if that sixth player had been K who would have kept us more on pace.
- Everyone dug the War album. S kept a copy.
- S needs to host next week as T is still away in exotic lands

Love the blog. Do you think you could include a review of the game itself when you're introducing a new game?
ReplyDeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteI have added links to BGG for each game played. That way, if you are unfamiliar with the games you can find reviews, pics and a summary of play. I don't think that I'll be adding formal game reviews other than in the notes section. In the future, I will try to solicit some opinions from the players while we play and add them to the notes.
Unless it's a new game, any game that we play on game night I already consider to be a good game.
