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.

Please note that Boston Pizza has asked us to notify all ChewsDay Challenge attendees that the restaurant will be extremely busy on this holiday. We will still be running the event but we will not be able to game outside the party room until the dining area quiets down. Tables will be first come first serve. We will not have the outside booths so please come early if you want to eat.

Well its about time I brought out Redshirts to play. 2-7 Daring Captains 60min mission duration.


BGG Descripction:

In Redshirts – which is based on a television franchise never to be named for legal reasons – players take on the role of Starship Captains, with a random assortment of Redshirts, which are junior level crewmen. The goal of the game is to be the first player to eliminate all of his own Redshirts.
Each player has a hand of cards that allows him to assign missions, issue equipment, travel to exotic locations, or use temporary abilities. Players frequently wind up with more cards than they can hold, which forces them to make strategic decisions about how to proceed.
Each Redshirt has its own combination of abilities and powers, and the players must find a way to match their crew up against missions where they cannot succeed. Other players "help" by offering the doomed Redshirt additional aid in an attempt to keep it alive.

Sorry guys I tried to do a simple edit to the 1st post to add in my game and it screwed up the layout pretty bad for some reason, I tried to fix it up but cant quiet get it right without messing it up further, not sure what I did wrong. :confused

I will follow up Redshirts with The Captain is Dead at 8:30!

Imagine that you are one of the crew in your favorite science fiction TV show. Now imagine that in the last 10 minutes of the show things have gone so badly that the captain is dead, and you and a member of your crew have to pull together and save the day yourselves! The Captain is Dead is a co-op game for 2 to 7 players. All you have to do is get the ship's engines (aka "Jump Core") back online and you win; but because there is a hostile alien ship trying to destroy you, that is easier said than done. You have an impressive star ship full of useful systems that will help you fend off the aliens, and get the Jump Core back online. Each system gives you an advantage while it remains online. The assault from the hostile alien ship tends to keep knocking those systems offline however. So you need to balance your time between keeping the ships system's online, fending off the alien threat, and completing your objective. Each member of your crew has special abilities and skills. You need to work as a group to maximize the potential of each role. If someone tries to be a hero, you'll all die.

I'd love to jump into The Captain is Dead.

This week I'd like to bring something special out. I've been working hard for the last few years remaking my favorite board game video games into physical versions. I started with Triple Triad, a very simple 2 player small strategy game that was in Final Fantasy 8. After I finished that, I decided to go head first into my biggest project so far and my favorite game: Phantasy Star Online Episode 3: CARD Revolution. It's taken me 2 years to complete it, but as of this afternoon, I have everything together. It is a 2 or 4 player game, but for my first go round, I would like to just play it as a 2 player game. I would love it if I could find one other person to play it with me.

Commonly referred to as PSO3, the game is the third installment of Sega's Phantasy Star Online saga. Released in 2003 for the Nintendo Gamecube, PSO3 was a diversion of the usual Phantasy Star format; taking on the play style of a turn based board/card game. Whilst the game was vastly different it still developed a good following and the game servers were active up until 2007 when the servers were shut down. In episode 3 you could choose to play as one of two sides; the Hunters and the Arkz. The two sides have their own different play styles in the game and provide players with multiple ways of playing the game allowing players to tailor their experience. Hunters fight by using weapons that they equip and then use to attack. These weapons provide a safety net as they need to be destroyed before an attack can be made against them directly. Arkz fight in a very different way. Unlike Hunters, Arkz use monsters; summoning them onto the battlefield in order to attack their opponents. This leaves them a little exposed as they have no protection should they be caught alone. Gameplay is a strategic back and forth, using Attack/Defense Action and Assist cards to power up your Items or Monster cards to defeat your opponents main Character.

I'll play red shirts then the captain is dead please

I would like to help get our star ship systems back on line and help repel the alien invasion, so put me down for The Captain is Dead. Thank you!

I will be bringing Fire in the Lake. It's for 4 players and will start at 6:30. The short game will likely take 4 hrs and will involve a pretty lengthy rules explanation. (but don't let that stop you!) We played it's little brother, Cuba Libre a few weeks back and that wasn't so difficult and this one is much the same but with a larger board, more spaces, more pieces, more decisions, and much more fun.

I'm in for fire in the lake.

Sign me up for Fire in the Lake as well.

U know what take me out of both games I signed up for I'm in for fire in the lake I need more practice for when I play it in dallas

I am interested in running a game of Rails Of New England at 8:30 on Tuesday.  I know that Brandon Shea wants to be signed up for it too as he is going to guide me as this will be my first time teaching it!!! 

Sorry.....I got the name of the game I am moderating mixed up.  It is actually called "Rails Of New England"  It is up to 5 players and takes aprox 180 minutes.  Thanks for making that correction!

Confirmed for Rails of New England.

Because of the holiday I will be at home this Tuesday!  Looks like fun games though!  See you all next tuesday.

me and Jason are up for Railways of New England if you have room for two

I would like to play Railways of New England if there is still room. I believe I have played it once quite a while back. Hope I replied to this in the correct place! : )

Just a note: It looks like Rails of New England is full now.
It is actually only a 5 player game, but the first page of this forum has 6 spots open.
I see the following people signed up for it:

Kristy
omegadirective
GreyLurker
Jason
nikkisportraits

It is going to be fun!
I love this game.

I'm coming tonight. I'll join in on redshirts!

Sorry guys, but I'm not feeling well today.  Please take my name off Fire in the Lake.   :(

Sorry Mark, something has come up at home and I won't be able to make it to BP tonight.  I apologize if it screws things up...I was really looking forward to playing FiTL.
