First meeting of 2017! Get your £2 dues ready for the year. Karl or myself will collect. And rejoice in all the new games that will be available to play. Not even Christmas and I have Cavern Tavern, El Grande Big Box, Time Stories and Cottage Garden on my newly acquired pile.

So for the first meeting I wanna try El Grande big box.

Starting a year with Catan feels apt. I'll take a place, Kes.

Excellent! I think I'm tempted to cap New Angeles at 5 players, as I've heard it can go a bit long with 6 (particularly as we're all new to it).

The mechanics are not overly complex (it all comes down to the deals) so I'm happy to go through the rules on the night. If anyone wants to read up in advance then the 'Learn to Play' guide is here:

I'll bring a couple of unplayed games down, probably Great Western Trail and some lighter games.

I need to work on my upper body strength before I try to bring Mechs vs Minions along.

New Angeles players! I'm very sorry, but I'm going to have to miss tomorrow night. Kat has turned over her ankle quite badly so I need to stay home and look after her. I'll endeavour to bring New Angeles to another session very soon...

Not wanting to benefit from Kat's misfortune (get well soon Kat!) but I could be tempted to bring Mechs vs Minions if I can get 4 definite players...

Fully expanded Tzolk'in with tribes and prophecies? Last chance if anyone is interested - it ships out on Wed, trading it for Kanban.

Bardagi - I'll play this only on the condition that someone learns the rules and teaches me how to play, because I don't have the time at the moment Rolling Eyes

Brew Crafters?

Tempted by Tzolk'in. Surprised you're selling it!

Also been thinking I want to play Impulse again.

Are you playing Mechs vs. Minions from the beginning, Paul?

Would you have time for Mage Wars Academy later in the evening, Aneurin?
