In the year 2097, the entire Earth was enveloped in a cataclysmic shift in climate, plunging the globe into another ice age. Nearly 90% of the world's population was eliminated, driving the survivors to band together into loose communities and tribes. In Arctic Scavengers, you are the leader of a small tribe of survivors. Resources, tools, medicine, and mercenaries are all in scarce supply. You and your tribe are pitted against up to four other tribes in a fight for survival. Build up your tribe, skirmish against other players head-to-head, or even bluff your way to victory. The player with the largest tribe at the end of the game is declared the winner!

I would like to try Alien Frontiers!

I shall run a game of Rise of Empires at 6:30, 5 players. It is a Civ-building game. I haven't played it yet, but it looks really solid with lots of options, without getting into mindboggling levels of complexity.

I'm in for Rise of Empires.  Thanks!

Alrighty, I'd love to run a game of Formula D at 6:30 there'll be room for 9 other players.  I'd estimate about 2 hours or so, depending on whether or not I have to teach or not.

Which reminds me, I am now accepting registrations for season 2 of the Chewsday Challenge Formula D League. Info here: http://sask.games/index.php?topic=3062.new#new

Formula D, it's on like Donkey Kong.

Dangah Dice.

Seriously, best episode of TableTop ever.

I'm in for formula D

Matt, I am totally in for alien frontiers

Sign me up for rise of empires please.

Sign me up for Alien Frontiers as well.  I will also run a game of Bootleggers at 8:30 for 3 to 6 players, estimated playtime 2 hours.

Rise of the Empires looks interesting so please sign me up.

Thanks,

Tony

Formula D!  I would like to try finishing the race on a single tire this time, like a unicycle.

You can do it, I believe in you!

I got a new game in the mail 2 days ago, another one of my kickstarter endeavors, called Berserk. I'd love to bring it to this Chewsday Challenge and play it with someone. It's a tactical card game, for 2 players. It takes around an hour and a half. Hopefully I'll find someone to play with me for 6:30pm?

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcf.geekdo-images.com%2Fimages%2Fpic1442429_md.png&hash=a284319200e02c712d1b665e1c1341ba55067678)

Berserk is a fantasy card game that was invented in 1993 and published in Russia in 2003. Since then it has become the most popular collectible card game in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. Berserk: War of the Realms, the second English-language edition of the Berserk tactical card game, consists of six 30-card ready-to-play decks and 63 cards for customizing. In the distant world of Laar wandering armies, led by powerful magicians live a life of battle. For eons they fought for survival in this world, once scorched by fires of the Cataclysm. Now you have the chance to gather your own army and become the maker of your own fate. Perhaps, your path will shape the fate of Laar as well... In fierce battles your life and lives of your trusted armies will only depend on your skill of a strategist and a warlord. And then, when in the heat of battle you will once forget about your wounds, about the future and about the past - you will understand why this is not simply a game. It is Berserk.

I'm going to bring back Euphoria as well for 8:30pm, as most planned games are starting earlier. (6 players, 120 minutes)

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcf.geekdo-images.com%2Fimages%2Fpic1615561_md.jpg&hash=c8535fe4a174cc8f9f093a60206654177bb0eceb)

In Euphoria: Build a Better Dystopia, you lead a team of workers (dice) and recruits (cards) to claim ownership of the dystopian world. You will generate commodities, dig tunnels to infiltrate opposing areas, construct markets, collect artifacts, strengthen allegiances, and fulfill secret agendas. Euphoria is a worker-placement game in which dice are your workers. The number on each die represents a worker's knowledge – that is, his level of awareness that he's in a dystopia. Worker knowledge enables various bonuses and impacts player interaction. If the collective knowledge of all of your workers gets too high, one of them might desert you. You also have two elite recruit cards at your disposal; one has pledged allegiance to you, but the other needs some convincing. You can reveal and use the reticent recruit by reaching certain milestones in the game...or by letting other players unwittingly reach those milestones for you. Your path to victory is paved with the sweat of your workers, the strength of your allegiances, and the tunnels you dig to infiltrate other areas of the world, but the destination is a land grab in the form of area control. You accomplish this by constructing markets that impose harsh restrictions of personal freedoms upon other players, changing the face of the game and opening new paths to victory. You can also focus on gathering artifacts from the old world, objects of leisure that are extremely rare in this utilitarian society. The dystopian elite covet these artifacts – especially matching pairs – and are willing to give you tracts of land in exchange for them.

I will give Bootleggers a try

Please scratch me from Alien Frontiers, just realized I won't be able to make it until 7pm because of work.  Also, I have a couple friends coming for the first time, so could you reserve 2 spots in Bootleggers for them.

sign me up for both bootleggers and alien frontiers please and thank you

I would like to host a game, at 830, Amerigo , up to 4 players and 90 min long

Can u sign Wendy j for formula d and kristy s for amerigo

Sign me up for Alien Frontier

Kevin McLean asked me to post that he is bringing Games of Thrones Board Game this week. 6 players. 180 minutes. 6:30 start time.

I have one more newcomer coming for my Bootleggers game at 8:30.  That should fill all the spots up.

Sign me up for Formula D please. I'm on a losing streak may as well lose at that this week.

Had a request to bring Cave Troll this time so will try to get a game in, later in the evening tomorrow. It plays up to four, so seek me out if you'd like to give it a shot (takes a little over an hour to play).

 Please change amerigo to 630 and take me out if formula d it's Wendy, I allready talked with kristy about this

Pfft who needs sleep sign me up for Formula D.

It's not whether you win or lose, it's whether or not you can take someone out with an exploding race car :D

NeikeDjour: Dana and I would both like to play Euphoria, but I may not be done packing up Alien Frontiers until 8:45-ish if that is ok!

I'm fine with that. I always have a few 10 minute games on me as filler.

I will get in on Euphoria as well.

Sorry on the short notice but I'll have to bow out of the formula D tonight
Thanks

I am going to come out tonight as well, I can just fill in whatever game needs players.
