Are we meeting next week?

I'm up for a Euro again. Any on offer?

Aneurin and I were planning another Euro night. Any of Dominant Species, Manhattan Project, Russian Railroads, Le Havre, Brew Crafters?

I'd be up for this. Try more of the expansions of Russian railroads?

I'm in

I won't be along. Apparently, because it's my wife's birthday, I have to take her out for a meal instead.

I suggested the Uni Arms, she disagreed.

Archipelago!

Plays up to 5 people, will either be a short or a medium game; depending on who is playing and what everyone wants...

1. Jamie
2. Joshua
3. Dale (may or may not turn up)
4. JessGH
5.

I really enjoyed Archipelago and I'm certainly eager to play again, but I'm afraid I'm not going to be there for next week's session. Hopefully I'll be available next time you schedule a session!

Glad you enjoyed it Andy!

I hope to bring it at least once a month; and depending on who plays, we can either do a short (for first time players, just to introduce the game) or a medium game. Also, at some point, we'll introduce the 'War and Peace' expansion, which sees more player to player interaction, and makes the iron resource more valuable than in the base game.

Hi all,

I am new to this forum as you can tell and I would like to come along next week. I'd be happy to play anything if there is space for me.

Thanks

Tigris came up in conversation last Tuesday which reminded me how much I love this game (and how long it has been since I played it) - anyone fancy it? (up to 4)

We can probably get 6 players for Dominant Species right?

I am pretty new, came down with my friend Dom a couple of weeks ago and played Concordia but havn't been able to come down since.
I was planning on bring my new aquisition of BloodRage down on Tuesday if anyone was up for it.

1. Arun (me)
2. Dominick
3. Sam
4. Lizzy

So many games I want to play this week! Can can I take a spot for Blood Rage, Arun? And I wonder if they'll be time for a game of Tigris afterward, Paul...

Have we ruled out a KanBan rematch? So for the euro list I have...

1 - KarlB
2 - JohnH
3 - Tom990
4 - Aneurin
5 - Big Paulie
6 -

So get thinking of your good euros with variable player counts... for me it would have to be 4 = German Railroads, 5 = Lewis & Clark/Carson City, 6 = Dominat Species/Power Grid (old Skool!)

7(?) -

If we get interest from 7 there is always Caverna... that's not seen the light of day for a while.

I'm happy to play any of Manhattan Project, Russian Railroads, Le Havre, Brew Crafters, Kanban or Caverna.

Though wouldn't Caverna take forever with 7 players?

I'd love Kanban again, or Trickerion, but I'm more than happy to go with Russian Railroads: German Railroads for 4 as I've never played it and the Rahdo looks alright.

I have nothing gamewise that adds to this. Rokoko and Mangrovia both play up to 5 (we could probably get both of them done in the same evening actually, but that'll be for another week).

I'd really like to play Archipelago, I played it about a year ago last so might have forgotten some of it. From what I remember it all seems fairly obvious once you're playing though.

Hi Joshua,

Most other people playing will, I imagine, either be new to it, or have just played once or twice before; so you'll be just fine.

Aneurin - I would love to try dominant species (first time tho) - then maybe a quick tigris if there is time afterwards Sam?

Aneurin - I would love to try dominant species (first time tho), happy with other euro games if we have less than 6 - then maybe a quick tigris if there is time afterwards Sam?

Paulie - you are in... best five player euros ladies and gentlemen.
Lizzy - Its probably 2-3 hour game with 7... its the reading of the building types and actions that slows it down. I will look at getting some player aids printed if we end up with that many.

Aneurin - Could we maybe have a little Salam action?

thanks aneurin - happy with carson city or lewis and clark, just looking at my old school euro shelf I could offer caylus, princes of Florence, peurto rico, castles of burgundy for 5er euro but very happy to play whatever u decide

Aneurin - If there is a space left for dominant species can I take that? It would be my first time too. I will watch some YouTube run-throughs before.

Thinking about it, I think either Dominant Species or Caverna are going to be longer than I want to play on Tuesday so I'll duck out and grab the last spot on Blood Rage instead. Not played that yet and looks really cool.
