Shakespeare - Thematic medium-weight Euro. Apparently theatre = scrambling desperation plus pretty art.
Castles of Burgundy - The things Stefan Feld can do with a couple of dice and some hexagons!
The Grizzled - Highly regarded co-op. Survive the horrors of trench warfare. Make coffee.
Fuse - Against-the-clock dice matching co-op silliness.

I'll definitely be up for a couple of games of fuse.
Me and Leanne are playing Puerto Rico for the majority too. 3 places available if anyone wants to reserve a spot?
And Sam I'm assuming Roll the Galaxy will be there again? Wanna get a game of that in aswel hopefully!

It turns out I can't make it tonight.

Yeah, I'm not feeling too good so won't be down tonight either.

I might be 10-15 minutes late tonight, grab a board and talk amongst yourselves!

I think this game was fun, would like to give it another go, despite messing up a few things..

Yeah, it was all the housekeeping that seemed to catch us out. All together, I thought it was a good game.

Yeah Scythe was good though I wonder if it could be more interactive. Maybe the board should be smaller so if you want something you gotta go take it

I thought we'd scrap more for the Factory - it's worth up to 12 points, so is definitely worth taking. Perhaps, as people get more familiar with the game and strategies develop a greater benefit to having a scrap might become obvious.
There are also two extra factions to be added at a later date - a 7 player game will become very crowded and force people to fight.

**Kes** Wed 27 Jul 2016, 15:42

Yeah that would do it. I had no idea the factory was worth 3 areas at the end. Might have tried to get it if I'd realised. Still smashed it!

Meurig Wed 27 Jul 2016, 18:24

I liked CO2. Definitely agree about the housekeeping. Once you're past that it seems like a good game with some interesting mechanics. I'd certainly be happy to play it again.
