21st June - K2 and Carson City

We were a Ben's this week and we started off with a game of K2, try to climb the mountain without dying, easy? No. I thought I'd managed it but my lead climber died at the top.

Matt 16 (tie-break), Richard 16, Garry 7 (tie-break), Ben 7

As it was only 9.30 we squeezed in a game of Carson City. I really like this game, I just wish I could remember what I did that gave me the win.

14th June - Vinci

This week an oldie. Vinci is the game that became Small World.

Garry 123, Richard 122, Steve 117, Ben 116

Then time for a few rounds of Hol's der Geier.

Garry 74, Steve 40, Ben 39, Richard 7

7th June - Leonardo

We've not played Leonardo for a while and I can see why. It's a game where you have to invent things, shame you can't un-invent things, like this game for example.

31 May - Cuba + expansion

5 Player Cuba with the expansion, great game.

Garry 88, Ben 84 (tie break), Richard 84, Matt 83, Steve 74

24 May - Hansa Teutonica & China

One of my favorites Hansa Teutonica.

Matt 60, Richard 45, Garry 35, Steve 30

Then just enough time for a game of China.

22 May - Medina & 1655 Habmus Papum

This week we played on a Sunday - wh hooo!

First up was Medina, a game about building a medina.

Steve 48, Richard 45, Garry 32, Matt 25

Then: Rock 'n' Roll!!! A game about voting for the Pope in the 17th century, I've been waiting for a game with this theme for ages. Actualy 1655 Habmus Papum is quite good and got a lot of attention at last years Essen fair.

May 12th - Key Market

None of us could make Tuesday this week so we played on Thursday instead, that's just the kind of whacky thing we get up to round here!

Anyway, we played Key Market this week
