Games Night 10th July 2018

Three of us again this week.
This time we kicked off with a good ol’ oldie:

by Ravensburger
Not one that has been played for a fair wee while (over three years).
A new one to KV so we brought him up to speed with the rules as well as reacquaint ourselves with them too.
And with that, buildings were build, plantations and quarrys were planted and quarried and colonists were put to work.

The final scores:
KV: 41
MC: 44
PH: 42

A victory for MC!

Next up we played:

by Bombyx
We weren’t brave enough to play with the two new expansions, so we played the vanilla game.
We even had some assistance from the cat, Quinny, (short for Quinlan Vos).

KV managed to acquire quite the number of pearls, while MC seemed to encounter in inordinate about of monsters while diving.

KV acquired the 7 lords, thus bringing the game to a close.
The final scores:

Player	KV	MC	PH
Locations VPs	34	10	19
Lord VPs	38	38	43
Affiliate VPs	10	19	15
Monster VPs	0	12	0
Total score	82	79	77

Well done KV, master of the Abyss.

Three of us again this week.
This time we played HG’s new game:

by Libellud

Being a new one top us, this took a little bit of rule reading, but we got the hang of it.

As to be expected with game such as this, many dice were rolled. This meant I had a good excuse to use this beauty from Geeknson:

At the end the game ended.
Here are the final scores:
HG: 68
MC: 151
PH: 129
Huzzahs for MC!!

HG the bowed out leaving PH and MC to have a game of

The end result was:
