GAME TITLE: Nautilus Industries
TEACHER: Bryce
START TIME: 6:30
DURATION: 90
# OF PLAYERS: 2-6
URL: Nautilus Industries (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/158970/nautilus-industries)


Nemo is gone, but his machines have opened a whole new world to us! The floors of Neptune's seas lay open to us, ready to surrender their bounties. Equip and upgrade your mining machines, then guide them to the rich mineral seams beneath the ocean. Control the supply of resources to bend the market to your will. Become the master of Nautilus Industries!

In the game, players take on the role of an enterprising business owner, with each trying to exploit the riches of the sea as well as the marketplace to earn the most money by the end of the game. Players take a series of simple actions, such as programming a mining robot, increasing warehouse capacity, swapping mining zone order, or purchasing stocks.

Each round, players have three actions they must take before the market phase. During this phase, players collect and sell resources, in turn order. Each sea zone is mined in a specific order, and players have the option each round to sell or hold their resources for a later round. When resources are sold, the market price of that resource decreases to reflect the supply/demand of that resource; stocks of the company using that resource also increase in value. Accordingly, if a resource is not sold, the market price for that resource increases. Players must decide when to sell and when to hold. Should you flood the market to bring down the price so your neighbor makes less money? Do you think the player beside you will hold out for a higher price, or will they sell just to spite you?

Nautilus Industries is easy to learn because of the simple actions you take, yet dynamic because of the way the markets, stocks, and players affect the gameplay.

Hi, I'm kinda new to the Chewsday Challenge, but I was told I could post a request here!

Would anybody be able to teach how to play Arkam Horror? Ive tried it once but we didn't get very far, and would like it more if we had someone that knew it a bit better! I have a small group of 3-5 people that hopefully will be there that want to play. We meet at about 8pm, so ill be bringing my copy then. It seemed fun, but a bit daunting without guidance.

Please let me know if you're interested and the 8pm start time doesnt scare you off!

Thanks!

EDIT: Its ELDRITCH HORROR,  Not arkham! Sorry, I was reading about both and got them switched up!

GAME TITLE: Small World Underground
TEACHER: RTigger
START TIME: 8h15m
DURATION: 1h30m
# OF PLAYERS: 5
URL: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/97786/small-world-underground

"This world's not big enough for all of us, so it's time you step aside to make room for me."

Small World Underground includes 15 fantasy-themed races of creatures along with 21 special powers. Each player will control several creature/power combinations over the course of the game – spending points to draft these combinations – and will use those creatures to claim control of various subterranean locations. Some locations hold relics or are designated as "places of power", and monsters must first be conquered before a player can claim these special benefits. At the end of each turn, a player scores points for the regions he holds, and the player with the most points at game end wins.

For those familiar with Small World, the main differences in Underground include places & relics (improving the value of particular areas) guarded by monsters, and a river area to traverse but vacate at the end of your turn.  Also 15 different races and 21 different powers.

Hi stretch,

I could give a hand with Arkham Horror some time, but I won't be there this Tuesday and an 8:00pm start time would be late for such a big game for me.

Another place to gauge interest and try and set up a game for Chewsday Challenge would be this thread: Possible games for Chewsday Challenge - Fall 2015 (http://sask.games/index.php?topic=5046.0).

Hi!

Thanks for your offer and I would totally take you up on it, but sadly tuesdays at 8 are literally the only time of the week that I can do it :( i'm either working or watching the kids otherwise! My back up plan is to see if someone posted a video of them playing on youtube or something, and see if they make it look any easier!  :D
Thanks!

Here's one that has some good comments so hopefully the video does a good job explaining things:
Arkham Horror Video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqVLo_s5kdI)

I need to watch it myself - we own AH but have never played.

So this is embarrassing! But I was watching the video and I realized my board looks different... So I went and checked it and I have Eldritch Horror! Not arkham... oops! So...any takers for ELDRITCH HORROR?

(My bad dudes!)

Post by: R Newell on September 21, 2015, 07:34:52 PM
Eldritch Horror is much quicker than Arkham Horror, so you should have an easier time finding takers at 8:00.

I could totally help you with eldritch Horror!   I won't be in til 8:15 if that works for you guys.  (Mods, take my game of small world off the list please)

Sounds good.  The game kind of drags with more than 5 people so don't feel like you need a full table for it.  Also make sure to try to grab a big table :)
