I'll run Yunnan and Kremlin.

I ran Yunnan last week and again at PGX last weekend. It's a great medium-weight eurogame with no elements of chance aside from the starting player order.  Come give it a try!  It's pretty easy to teach and we should have no trouble getting the game played inside of two hours, even with a full complement of five.

Kremlin is a game I've run at Chewsday Challenge a couple of times, and I'm bringing back by popular demand.  It's got a very clever mechanism where you exert control over Soviet politicians but only reveal your influence gradually.  Other players may have higher influence and reveal it at timely moments!  There's lots of backstabbing in this game but somehow it never stops being fun, even when you're the victim.  In the "Some Games Are More Fun to Lose Than Others" category, this would be my #1.  I've never won and I don't care.  It's a blast!  :)

This game seems to run long - I've padded the run time accordingly but consider this an estimate, not a guarantee.

I'll play yunnan and Kremlin

We managed to get Russian Railroads scheduled from the Possible Fall Games at Chewsday Challenge (http://sask.games/index.php?topic=5046.0) thread.  If there are games you're hoping to play this fall feel free to make a post there or maybe you can teach something that someone else wants to learn.

I'm going to run Cthulhu Wars at 7:30.

For those who have played with me before....I done it wrong :confused.  Somehow I missed a line in the rule book and as a result I haven't been running the game properly before this.

So this will be my first time running the game correctly

Hey Ernie, I'm taking this as you and Allison wanting to be added to Mystery Express!

did I not do it right??? Yes but that was my intention to sign up for the Game ?

It all works.   :)

The easiest thing for the mods to track is if you just hit reply and say "add me to ___ game".  Then we edit the front page to show all the updates for the games, players and times. 

Hi Ernie,

It's easiest for us moderators if people sign up for games simply by making a post and letting us know which games to sign you up for.  Quoting and modifying the first post would have us searching through to spot the differences, plus it would make the thread pages quite long.

More importantly, it's great to have more people signing up for games beforehand on the website.  :)

EDIT: What Lori said.   :lol

HI Lori,

Again sorry for any trouble I am new at this and did not understand the  process.

Ernie

signing up for ROW Mexico and Tokaido

GAME TITLE: Tragedy Looper
TEACHER: RTigger
START TIME: 8:30
DURATION: 2h
# OF PLAYERS: 4
URL: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/148319/tragedy-looper

Tragedy Looper is a scenario-based deduction game for two to four players: one mastermind and one to three protagonists. The game consists of four location boards and a number of character cards. Each scenario features a number of characters, hidden roles for these characters (serial killer, conspiracy theorist, friend), and some pre-set tragedies (murder, suicide).

Each "day" (turn), players and the mastermind play three face-down cards onto the characters, then reveal them to move the characters around or affect their paranoia or goodwill stats. At the end of each day (turn), if the scenario has a tragedy set for that day, it happens if the conditions are met, i.e., certain characters have certain stats or are in a certain location together (or not together) with others. As tragedies happen, players loop back in time, restarting the scenario from the beginning and trying to deduce who the culprit was and why the tragedy occurred.

The players win if they manage to maintain status quo — that is, if no tragedies occur to the key individuals — for a set number of days, within a set number of loops. If not, the mastermind wins.
