Twilight Imperium in Greenhill on July 4th (Independence Day!)

Continuing what seems to now be a quarterly tradition, let's play some more Twilight Imperium at my place (Greenhill) on Saturday, 4th July. Putting this date out well in advance as it's a whole day commitment for people.

New players are extremely welcome as well as returning 'veterans' (apparently you're a veteran if you've played twice, a claim that I heavily dispute given my ability to get myself in a mess and do everything in the wrong order). For anyone that hasn't played before but is interested in an epic game of galactic conflict, trade and politics, you'll need to read the rules in advance but it's a friendly group and you won't be 'punished' for not knowing every detail of every option. But do bear in mind that it's a game that might take 10 hours or more. It's good to know what you're getting into :-)

With that length in mind, we'll start at 10.30am. I'll provide some snacks, etc. but bring some lunch (if you think you'll have time to eat it!) and we'll order some pizza in the evening.

So. Eight spots. Who wants to play?

1. Aneurin (Minister of Owning the Game)
2. Paul G (Minister of Providing the Venue)
3. Jamie (Minister for Hidden Roles)
4. Paul C (Minister of Plumbing)
5. Tim (Minister for Peace, Honest)
6. Steve (Minister Without Portfolio)
7. TomW (Minister for Cricket)
8. Beardy TomC (Minister of Renegotiated Alliances)

I'll text Steve as I don't think he uses the forum much these days.

Yay! But you need to provide me with a ministerial position ;-)

Paul C - Minister of Plumbing (especially in the month of Mo-vember!) "Wa-hoo!"

Alright, count me in too. I should try it once. And Gary will be busy that day anyway.

Best save a spot for Steve...

That's your idea of fixed???

Yes please. Tom. It was fun being a virus, but boy were they hard to play with.

Tom C is taking up the last spot - so I think that makes it full... People sure they can commit the whole day to this... I'm looking at you Lizzie, Jamie and Paul C... our newbies vs all these veterans! When we say whole day its 10.30am till like 9pm... if we play quickly.
