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.


Due to the overwhelming success of ChewsDay Challenge we might need to limit table space in the early evening if attendance is high and the restaurant is busy. We ask that larger-sized games be planned for 7:30 and later after Boston Pizza's dinner rush when we can spill out into the dining area, if needed, and with the restaurant's permission.  Please be considerate when choosing your table area to maximize player density. Thank you for helping make ChewsDay Challenge a success!

I'm going to bring out the survival/zombie/paranoia game Dead of Winter for 8:30 on Tuesday. I'm sure everyone is familiar with it, by now, but for new attendees it's a semi-cooperative game where players are survivors of a zombie apocalypse who have escaped to a colony in the icy north. They must work together to find what they need to survive a variety of crises, achieve an overall team goal and hopefully work-out a way to achieve their own personal goal (because you can win with everyone but it's sometimes nicer to win a bit more than everybody else). There's also a chance that a traitor's in the group, trying to take the colony down from within to reach their own selfish ends.

The game plays 5 and I'm good with the full count. It's not too difficult to learn so everyone's welcome to play (though being a zombie game there's a bit of graphic content in some of the Crossroads cards). I know the box says 100min but with teaching it's closer to 120min+.

GAME TITLE: Dead of Winter

Aww, just missed dead of winter!  Oh well, next time.  For now, I'll be bringing out Xia: Legends of a Drift System

GAME TITLE: Xia: Legends of a Drift System
TEACHER: RTigger
START TIME: 8:00
DURATION: 2h
# OF PLAYERS: 5
URL: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/82222/xia-legends-drift-system

Nominee for several BGG awards in 2014 including Best Artwork, Most Innovative, Most Thematic, and Board Game of the Year, Xia: Legends of a Drift System is a 3-5 player sandbox style competitive space adventure. Each player starts as a lowly but hopeful captain of a small starship.  Players fly their ships about the system, completing a variety of missions, exploring new sectors and battling other ships. Navigating hazardous environments, players choose to mine, salvage, or trade valuable cargo. Captains vie with each other for Titles, riches, and most importantly Fame.  The most adaptive, risk taking, and creative players will excel. One captain will rise above the others, surpassing mortality by becoming Legend!

Any chance you'd want to move that up to 630? Been dying to play this again, but I have the ticket to ride league at 830.

Otherwise, I'll catch you net time!

Star Realms Fundraising Challenge!

I've managed to get my hands on a few Battle Screechers

(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fspartangamesarena.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2014%2F04%2FSRGD-Battle-Screecher.png&hash=8e38ac421e649306d5d1c0bc90cb17f04d274c82)

This will be for a fundraiser for my PWYF team to support Souls Harbour.

Challenge me to a game, and if you win I'll give you a Battle Screecher.

Cost: $2 per game. Or $5 for a best of 3 (which I'll give you a Battle Screecher even if I pummel you!)

All monies will be donated!

I'm ambassador tonight so if I'm free I'm up for some games!

If it's an easy night I'll try to play as many Star Realms games as possible, but since I'm ambassador I need to make sure everyone is settled into games before I can accept challenges. BUT I'll be doing this over the next few weeks as my Battle Schreechers last. I have 6 to give out.

My family (me, husband, two boys aged 9 and 10) and I will be coming for our first game night to try it out and meet people.  We'll be bringing our own games tonight (Star Munchkin and Inn-Fighting).  I'm planning on bringing the boys early to have supper first, and the husband will show up later when he's free from work.
