Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game is set in the Marvel Comics universe. To set up the game, players choose a number of hero decks – Spider-Man, Hulk, Cyclops, Wolverine, etc. – and shuffle them together; since players use only a handful of hero decks out of the fifteen included, the hero deck can vary widely in terms of what's available. Players then choose a mastermind villain (Magneto, Loki, Dr. Doom, etc.), stack that particular villain's attack cards underneath it, then modify the villain deck as needed based on that villain's particular scheme.

A reworking of the game Entdecker, this game still starts with a blank game board that represents an unexplored sea. Tiles are drawn and placed on squares on the board. As the tiles are placed, islands develop on the board and players pay to place settlements, forts, or scouts on these islands in an effort to become the most powerful explorer.
Completed islands yield victory points to all who have invested in exploration on an island, but of course the most points go to the player who has established the strongest presence. This updated version adds a larger board, fees to enter from all but one edge of the board, a different income system, new bonus waterfall tiles, the ability to draw (for a price) from open stacks of tiles, and most of all an entirely new area of the board that represents scouts exploring jungles on the islands in search of exotic plants (this is the bonus discovery chip system revamped), and other changes.

Please sign up myself, Chris and Christine for Entdecker :)
Might as well sign me up for legendary lol

I enjoy Legendary as well, sign me up. To keep in the theme of deckbuilding, I recently picked up arctic scavengers and wouldn't mind bringing that to the table. Maybe say for 7:30? It's about an hour and a half with teaching, I think, maybe more. Has room for 5 people.
Please sign me up for Legendary and Arctic Scavengers. Thanks!
Please sign me up for Legendary and Arctic Scavengers.
I have heard good things about Arctic Scavengers. I will give it a go.
Might as well sign me up for artic scavengers too then
Please add me to the last spot for Arctic Scavengers.
Will be teaching Seasons at 6:30 60-80 mins 4 player game. Start at apprentice level and if interest will try arch mage level in a 2nd session.
I will be there with Reese (age 10) who is a pretty decent gamer. Any suggestions as to what to play?

If you need me to bring anything let me know. I have Survive, Dixit, Vegas, etc...
Just a heads up, Arctic Scavengers only has room for five, so either someone will have to go on the waiting list or I can sit out and just teach it.
You could join in on seasons Logan with Reese. The apprentice level of the game is really easy to catch on.
Hey Logan, I will bring T and we can play something together I will bring taiga and settlers-Jeff

I am pretty sure Amanda is coming to this one too, also age 10. She has already picked a bag full of games...
Survive, No Thanks, Incan Gold, Loopin Louie, and Express.
Tempest, I see your note about there really only being five spots available for Arctic Scavengers. Since I was the last to request, I should be the one to step away. However, there is still good news for me, as Mike has indicated he wants to bring Seasons, and I would like to try that one out. So Mr. Moderator, please take me off Arctic Scavengers and add me to Seasons.

Ah, you sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Or at least one of those. In any case, thanks for making it easy. I definitely owe you at least one chicken wing. Or a priority spot in a later game? I don't know. Thank you. :D
Sign me up for Seasons!
I believe there is one more spot for Seasons, yes? I'd like to get in on that, please.
im bringing out Carcassonne with 2 expansions. And 2new players so we have 3 spots open. 630ish start
Unfortunately something has come up and I can't make it tonight. If Bellis was still interested, then a spot is going to be open.
I'll have to catch you all next week.
With a spot opening up in Legrndary I will put my daughter Amanda in.
