If you would like to schedule a game. Please post in this event thread with the following information:
Name of the game, when you would like to start, The duration of the game, and the number of players it can accommodate.
I'm confident enough of Rise of Empires being a blast, so I am posting another round for this week. 6:50, 180 mins., 5 players.

Marc - I haven't played this game but I would like to try
I will run games of Ticket To Ride Europe at 6:30 & Ticket To Ride Asia at 8:00 for 2 to 5 players. I've never actually played them before :o , but they look pretty easy to teach.
I'd like to officially get in on Robo Rally. Apparently it's awesome.
One does not simply pass up RoboRally. I'm in.
Got another Kickstarter called Machine of Death, and would really like to get a bigger group for this one. Ideally I'd like to get teams of 3. I think it would be good till maybe 12 people. So at least 2 teams, up to 4 teams. If we get less people, I'll try to split up the teams evenly. I'm going to start it around 8:30. And I'm going to guestimate a time of around 2 hours.
I'm really amused by the concept of this game, and as not many other people would know what it is, I'm placing a gameplay video with the post to give you a better understanding of how the game plays.
(https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/projects/444203/photo-main.jpg?1360632337) | A party game in which it is TOTALLY POSSIBLE to drop a boxcar full of rabid piranhas onto the King of France. LIKELY, even.
In the world of our game, there exists a machine (the titular Machine of Death) that can issue people little cards: death predictions. Nobody knows just how it works, but it's always, always right.
The GAME is about flinging SHARKS from CATAPULTS in order to kill imaginary people. It's basically a game of Mousetrap or a Road Runner cartoon, except that it's TOTALLY WITHIN THE RULES to create a QUICKSAND GENERATOR in a TREEHOUSE in order to DROWN someone.
So if you can know, cryptically but with 100% accuracy, how a given person will one day die... And you're an assassin, and you want to make that day today... Then you have a puzzle to solve. Given a person who is slated to die by BANANA PEEL, but is currently in (let's say) a space station...how do you make it happen? Oh, and I forgot: all you have at your disposal is a tool, a liquid, and a piece of furniture. GO!
Machine of Death: The Game of Creative Assassination. It's all about the execution. |

I'll join in for some Roborally. Everyone says that its good.
If you get 5 for Ticket to Ride Asia, count me in for a 6th. then we can do the team based version on the Asia Map. 3 teams of 2.
I'd be interested in learning Rise of Empires.
Cheers!
I will bring Catan Histories Settlers of America, It is a four player game, a game will take about two hours, I would like to start at 6:30
I think it's time I want to run capitals city's through time 2 - 5 players 90 minutes but I have never played but read rules so I'm going to say 2 hours ill start at 830 I know. Barry wants to play he's been bugging me thank you
Ill try Rise of Empires again.
Sign me up for Robo Rally
Saskdm
Put me down for Capitals please.
I still have room for 3 people in robo rally. The more robots rolling around the more mayhem (and fun?) for all.
I will for sure rally some robots to the cause...of Justice!
Jumpin in Ticket To ride europe.
I'm totally down for some Robo Rally. I've prepared this training montage:
