Please sign me up for Memoir 44. I've never played before, though. Hope that's all right, Murray.
Well, the shipping notice says this will arrive well in time so I'm going to bravely put it on the schedule.

Easy to learn Rob - 10 minutes. Glad to have you on board!
Since newbies are welcome, I'm grabbing that last spot on Memoir '44. Been curious about that game for years.

We are going to make it a Memoir night so if you or any of the others want to continue playing let me know. If people move on to other games I will post another listing to keep going on the large boards
Murray, I'd be jumping out after game 1. If you have 6 that want to stick with that game all evening, I'm fine giving up my spot so you're not teaching twice.
No stay in Ryan - it is very easy to add or subtract. Glad to have you in the game! Plays as well with 2 or 4 or even odd numbers - you just change the command structure. Honestly teaching takes minutes

Sorry, I'm not going to be able to make it on Tuesday. Please remove me from Memoir 44.
Can I fill Rob's spot in Memoir 44?
Will one game take 90 minutes? Then I'd also be out after the first game so that I'm still in for Between Two Cities at 8:30.
I am going to bring Tash-Kalar with the Everfrost Expansion this evening.

I am wondering if there is still room for another player to join Aquasphere. If so please add me. Thanks.
Please sign me up for Bean Trader. Also is it possible to 'reserve a spot' for a buddy of mine that may be coming? Sorry that I can't say forsure yet whether he is coming or not.
I will be bringing Tammany Hall to play at 9pm (after Bean Trader). If there is no interest in this I'd love to play Kremlin(needs 4ish players) or Sherlock Holmes consulting Detective (good with 2 or 3 players)....

"Life is Short; Play Games!"
By coincidence, I got my first two tries at team-based war games and played them back-to-back (well, war game-ish: Memoir '44 and 1775) . Both were great fun. There should be more competitive games that involve partners. :thumb-up
There's room in our game of Rex and Fief during the Play with your Food event..... :8)
Note: the partners in those games would be formed after the game starts, and are a little shaky...

I'm already running a game of Dune (Rex's ancestor) later during the event, but maybe...
